From the Agent: "Determined to transform their family’s 1924 bungalow into a modernist home, Mr. & Mrs. Pekrul commissioned Long Beach architect Paul Tay for a post-and-beam addition in 1968. The result is an inspiring and light-filled space, sheltered behind privacy fencing and mature trees on a generous, nearly 9,000-square-foot lot. Its rough-sawn Redwood ceiling, custom-built soffit lighting, wraparound and clerestory windows, hand-painted tile, beautiful Teak cabinetry, and built-ins all remain gloriously intact. Sliding-glass doors access a central courtyard, connecting Tay’s addition to the now-renovated 1920’s structure."
A wooden fence encloses the historic bungalow, which sits on a large lot in the Virginia Country Club neighborhood. Soaring, mature trees provide ample shade and privacy.
