Every so often an extraordinarily unique mid-century modern home comes on the Los Angeles market and infectious enthusiasm begins to emanate from all of us who see it. The Max Bubeck Residence in the Glassell Park Hills is one of those rare homes.

Designed by architect Allyn E. Morris in 1956, you will fall in love with this three bedroom, four bathroom house. A stunning pool and spa is surrounded by hedges and lush landscaping making it ultra private.

The H-shaped home was built with a combination of steel, glass, and concrete block. The distinctive floating ceiling, highlighted by red components, is supported by steel beams and was a revolutionary feature at the time of construction.

Clerestory windows frame the sky and mountain views, while floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall glass windows create an exceptional indoor/outdoor living space perfect for entertaining. A gorgeous circular fireplace is surrounded by a bright atrium in the center of the home, bringing more of the outdoors inside.

The remodeled kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, bright light, and looks over the living area.

A comfortable family den opens up to one of the home’s many private patios.

Each of the bedrooms feature many windows, hardwood built-ins, and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors creating ample light, cool breezes, and easy access to outdoor patios, decks, and gardens.

Because each of the bedrooms have their own patio space there is a distinct resort feel to the house.

Architecture historian Alan Hess called the Max Bubeck Residence, “An excellent, fresh, and delightful piece of design” and once you view it you’ll see exactly that and more.
