"Nestled within the heart of the highly sought after neighborhood of Park Estates lies the Alexander House, an unparalleled midcentury masterpiece. Crafted by the illustrious John Lautner, FAIA in 1951, this historic ranch-style abode marries organic design with modern luxury. Stretched over an expansive lot surrounded by lush landscape, the home embodies Lautner’s signature: innovation, natural materials, and a seamless blend of indoor/outdoor living. A tastefully secluded facade beckons you in, revealing an intimate shade garden and inviting glass wall near the front entrance. As you step inside, the vaulted, beamed ceilings, authentic brick and concrete floors, and bespoke built-ins capture your gaze. The grandeur of its interiors, illuminated by cascades of natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows, renders an authentic midcentury ambiance. The spacious living area draws your sight to embrace the indoor/outdoor experience, a hallmark of Lautner’s inspiration from his mentorship underneath Frank Lloyd Wright."
