"The Los Angeles County Assessor first visited The Estes Residence on February 10, 1936, and recorded it as a newly completed ‘modernistic’ home with ‘special’ quality construction, which was the highest quality of its kind at the time," says listing agent Benjamin Kahle. "Renovated in 2002 by Mills Studio, the property now serves as one of the most unique architectural compounds in the city. A classic aerodynamic design is the hallmark of the timeless exterior. An incredibly bright living room boasts original oak floors, a gracefully curved fireplace, and rounded steel casement windows with views of the surrounding Hollywood hills."

Beneath, the enormous primary suite looks out to the dunes on one side and the pool deck on the other. Across the deck are two guest-cabana bedrooms and a bathroom, both in the shape of pyramids.
