3816 Lockerbie Ct

The exceptionally private and masterfully restored pied-a-terre, designed in 1961 by Richard Neutra for Maurice and Marceil Taylor, is newly available in the architectural enclave of Whiting Woods. The Taylor House has undergone a meticulous restoration that will delight any Mid-Century modern purist. This two-bedroom, two-bath home epitomizes Neutra's philosophy of therapeutic architecture, with expansive plate glass sliders that create a seamless connection between indoors and the adjacent nature preserve. In true Neutra fashion, the sight-lines are intentionally directed toward a brick fireplace and burlap-clad art wall, building anticipation before unveiling the open-concept living area clad in glass. The unassuming facade offers an added layer of privacy for this jewel-box retreat, nestled among heritage oaks in a serene setting. The kitchen, set apart by a mahogany bookcase, features new Frigidaire appliances and refinished mahogany cabinetry. Paint colors are matched to Neutra's original palette, while vintage details--including light switches, fixtures, and chrome swivel toothbrush/cup holders in each bathroom--remain intact. Period touches abound, from cork flooring to the tiled open-air Japanese soaking tub and shower off the primary bedroom. Modern amenities include a full-size laundry area, HVAC, alarm system with cameras. There are multiple outdoor spaces for relaxing and entertaining. This rare architectural sanctuary is just moments from fine dining, shopping, JPL, Caltech, the ArtCenter, and offers easy access to Pasadena, downtown Los Angeles, and the Valley.
