A rare opportunity to own a piece of California history! This exceptional estate, nestled in the picturesque hills and valleys of Live Oak Canyon and neighboring Webb Canyon, is now for sale. Designed by renowned architect Foster Rhodes Jackson, a disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright, this masterpiece of organic modern indoor-outdoor design is an architectural masterpiece. Distinguished by its iconic bell tower, this architectural gem was built by Jackson as his personal residence in 1955. Situated majestically on the crest of a hill, accessible by a private, winding drive, this property stands as one of the most extraordinary and unique homes in Southern California.Crafted from local fieldstone, cement, wood, and glass, this sprawling castle-like residence is a testament to Jackson's artistic vision and architectural ingenuity. The expansive 3,628 square foot main house has been thoughtfully updated to provide modern comforts while preserving its original character. In addition to the main residence, the property boasts two separate guest quarters, providing ample space for visitors or extended family; one of the guest quarters could be used as a dedicated studio/office space, ideal for creative pursuits or professional endeavors.Set on almost 10 acres of prime land, the estate offers panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the twinkling city lights below. The expansive grounds and breathtaking vistas make this property an idyllic setting for grand-scale entertaining, weddings, or other special events. The seamless integration of indoor and outdoor living spaces further enhances the home's suitability for hosting gatherings of all sizes.
