"TEMPO HOUSE" RAY KAPPE, 1959. Little has been written about this extraordinary residence due to its history of ultra-private ownership, yet it remains a property of remarkable architectural pedigree. With original plans archived at the Getty, the Tempo House represents a rare departure from Kappe's more widely recognized body of work. Since 1977, the home has been owned by prominent Hollywood figures Chuck McCann and Betty Fanning. Built around a stunning circular pool with an oculus overhead, the home is centered on a dramatic architectural focal point, with all principal rooms oriented to embrace this striking feature. In the early 2000's, the residence was expanded by architect Gus Duffy, seamlessly enhancing the original design while preserving its integrity. A dramatic two-story movie theater serves as a true centerpiece of the home, designed for both cinematic viewing and live entertainment. The upper level offers additional flexibility and can be utilized as a recording studio, creative workspace, or private production suite. The home features 3 bedrooms plus an office, including a primary suite overlooking the outdoor pool area. Tucked away in a quiet highly coveted celebrity enclave, the property offers exceptional privacy along with serene city, canyon, and hillside views. A compelling and unique offering!
