MidCenturyModern

"The Newman Residence, 1948 designed by Lloyd Wright." Tucked behind gates at the end of a long gracious driveway in one of Rustic Canyon's most coveted pockets, this rare Lloyd Wright designed estate, once home to legendary film composer Alfred Newman, offers timeless design in a serene, private setting that feels worlds away. The house rests on nearly two acres, enveloped with mature landscaping including California Oaks, Sycamore and fruit trees. Thoughtfully restored with reverence to Wright's original vision; blending his signature architectural elements using red brick, natural wood and expansive glass with soft organic interiors. The main residence is a study in volume, light and symmetry, where glass walls open to the sweeping grounds, California pool and views of the Santa Monica Mountains. The primary level includes the spacious kitchen, dining room and creative public spaces. The upper level provides a generous bedroom retreat, an open loft like apartment encompassing the entire second floor with several lounging areas and a signature Lloyd Wright brick fireplace as a backdrop and two balconies reaching perched towards the gardens. Two separate pavilions, connected by an overhang to the main structure, potentially offer four additional bedrooms or flex spaces for different family demands and paradigms.
