10801 Chalon Road | Drew Fenton

For the Architectural Devotee (or just lover of the exquisite) The Brown House by Richard Neutra. A Collectible Masterpiece hidden at the top of a private driveway in the hills of Bel Air, 10801 Chalon Road is more than a home it is a masterwork of 20th-century architecture. Originally designed in 1955 by Richard Neutra for the Sidney family, and meticulously restored by Marmol Radziner this property offers a rare opportunity to inhabit a living piece of modernist history.The Brown House is one of Neutra's few remaining Los Angeles residences with a double-wide living room - a volume of space seldom granted in midcentury design. The proportions are balanced. The structure is quiet. Light moves across terrazzo floors and original Neutra cabinetry. Signature Neutra elements remain: restored terrazzo floors, original cabinetry and built in furniture elements, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and walls of glass that dissolve to open onto the landscape. A private pool pavilion cantilevers into the hillside on stainless-steel spider legs, and the roofline's integrated water feature is still visible a nod to Neutra's obsession with sensory architecture.Later this vision and has most recently been curated by designer Trevor Cheney and landscape architect Scott Shrader, the home now offers an exquisite layering of material histories. From the natural plaster and steel to mohair, walnut, and Italian antiques, every detail honors the structure's lineage.
