Property Description
To be featured by Dwell Magazine in November: "The Teasley Residence," designed by esteemed LA architect Vincent J. Proby, AIA. The original property, a 1957 mid-century modern, was enjoyed by Mr. Larkin Teasley and his family until the Baldwin Hills fire tragically destroyed their home on July 3rd 1985. Determined to rebuild anew for his wife, daughters, and community, Mr. Teasley employed the formidable talents of Leimert Park-based architect Vincent J. Proby, AIA, designing this fantastic 2-story home with widescreen views of the LA basin, situated atop Baldwin Hills Estates. A graduate of the storied USC School of Architecture and the first person of color on California's State Board of Architectural Examiners, Mr. Proby served as project manager for Welton Becket's Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena as well as designing the iconic California African American Museum in Exposition Park and the A C Bilbrew Library in Willowbrook, amongst others. Featuring 3 beds, 3 baths, and almost 3,300 SqFt of living space, "The Teasley Residence" displays an emphasis on natural flow and light throughout. The beautiful formal living room is complimented by a warm and sun-filled family room that features a mid-century style cut-stone fireplace and seated bar area. Floor-to-ceiling sliders open directly onto the patio, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle and unobstructed sight lines out to the full-sized and original 1957 swimming pool. Mr. Proby deftly positioned both the upstairs home office and primary bedroom on the north side of the second story, taking advantage of the panoramic views unique to Baldwin Hills, including vistas of Century City, the Hollywood Hills and DTLA skyline. The office shows original built-ins and gorgeous wood paneled walls while the primary bedroom features a large en-suite bathroom with shower, bath, vanity and expansive walk-in closet. Embrace the original period details or bring your remodel imagination, the house features a ballasted stone roof that is virtually fireproof, large kitchen with center counter and dedicated dining area, front yard landscaping and an attached two-car garage with crescent driveway that can accommodate two additional cars. The backyard area currently displays two original pool changing rooms that could be updated or removed to enlarge the overall back patio footprint. "The Teasley Residence" offers quick access to Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area and Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook, and LAX and SoFi Stadium as well as minutes from Sony Pictures, Apple, MGM Studios, NantWorks and more. Local culinary destinations include Post-and-Beam LA, Jon & Vinny's Slauson, Highly Likely, Farmhouse Kitchen, and the Armet & Davis-designed Pann's Restaurant, amongst others
