About This Home

Original Mid-Century Architectural Topanga Pool Home with expansive views by architect Bob Bates. Perched high above the canyon on a serene knoll in the coveted Pos Office Tract, this original Mid-Century architectural home stands as a luminous ode to Topanga's artistic spirit. The essence of Frank Lloyd Wright's Honeycomb House lives on here. Tucked up a private driveway that meanders beside the State Park, the property opens to a world of quiet grandeur, a landscape of golden light, rustling oaks, and boundless vistas that seem to float between earth and sky. Here, architecture and nature entwine in a lyrical balance, every beam and pane of glass choreographing the movement of sunlight across redwood walls, wood floors, and polished stone floors. Inside, the home unfolds with the understated drama of true mid-century design, post-and-beam vaulted ceilings, crisp white walls, and generous expanses of glass that dissolve the boundary between indoors and out. The living room, centered around its original, rugged stone, wood-burning fireplace, feels suspended in air, gazing out over the lap pool and hot tub to views that stretch toward the horizon. Daylight glimmers on the water's surface before spilling into the home, where every space is tuned to the rhythm of the canyon beyond. A spacious hexagonal room, enwrapped in views, sits near the living room. It could live as a media room, playroom, dining room, or office! The reimagined kitchen, a study in serenity, marries warm red oak floating shelves with sleek modern appliances. Thoughtful details, from filtered hot water for tea to chilled water dispensers at hand, invite ease and quiet luxury into daily rituals. Each of the four bedrooms offers its own connection to the outdoors, French doors that open to the pool, upper decks framed by branches, a view softened by light, while two elegant bathrooms echo the home's natural palette. The larger upstairs bedroom is a special aerie, with frameless corner windows, dazzled by park and mountain views. A separate renovated laundry room, complete with a 3/4 bathroom, extends the possibilities of the property, making for an ideal artist's studio, or workspace for creative pursuits. Every corner invites inspiration, every window a canvas for the changing sky. Beyond the walls, the acre of land is alive with abundance. Mature oaks, jacarandas, and olive trees mingle with lemon, lime, kumquat, and mandarin, a living tapestry that perfumes the air. The garden terraces, framed by native succulents and stone, open to sweeping canyon and mountain views that shift with the light, transforming from silver morning haze to molten sunsets. There is room for a garden, outdoor entertaining areas, and parking for 10 vehicles, including a 2 car garage. This is a home that breathes, expansive, soulful, and deeply connected to its surroundings. At once architectural and organic, refined yet elemental, it embodies the essence of Topanga living: artful, private, and bathed in the glow of California's natural beauty. Here, the architecture doesn't merely shelter you, it reminds you to look up, listen closely, and live in rhythm with the land. There is a trail into Topanga State Park next to the driveway. The mid-canyon location is near all Topanga has to offer, with charming shops, cafes, galleries, pilates studios, and cultural landmarks, and is 15 minutes to the beach. The acre property is bountiful and a very special setting in the canyon, with a home that breathes with light and inspired architecture. You could live in this stunning work of art. MLS# 25617077
