Property Description
1100 Montecito Drive is a striking example of 1964 architectural innovation by Richard Kearney and John Lawrence Pugsley. Perched on steel cantilevers that extend dramatically over the canyon, this home exemplifies the bold design and engineering that defined the era—blending architectural vision with breathtaking views.
Thoughtfully renovated in 2018 by the acclaimed design firm Oficina.LA, this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence stays true to its mid-century roots while offering the comforts of modern living. Solid Douglas Fir flooring and custom millwork mirror the beauty of the original exposed beam, creating visual harmony throughout the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen spaces.
The upgraded kitchen features sleek plywood cabinetry and high-end appliances, including a Viking professional gas range, Viking refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and Kartell pendant light fixtures—all centered around a custom-built farm table, perfect for entertaining. The beautifully designed bathroom includes premium finishes like a Duravit tub, double sink, Hansgrohe fixtures, and marble flooring.
Walls of dual-glazed glass sliders bathe the home in natural light and lead to a private outdoor patio with panoramic canyon views. The expansive 7,000 SF lot includes a fully enclosed front yard and a spacious covered terrace tucked beneath the home—ideal for outdoor dining or lounging.
Extensive system upgrades ensure long-term comfort and efficiency, including all-new plumbing and electrical, a cool roof coating, a new central HVAC system, and energy-efficient dual-pane doors. These improvements seamlessly blend modern performance with timeless design.
Located within the Montecito Drive Residential Historic District, this property is not just a home—it's a rare piece of Los Angeles architectural history. Set in a vibrant community with easy access to Highland Park's shops and restaurants, DTLA, Debs Park hiking trails, and nearby Pasadena, 1100 Montecito Drive offers the perfect balance of heritage, design, and livability.
