While the fate of Modernism was being debated in the press, U.S.C. & M.I.T.-schooled architect Phil Brown planned a private enclave of modern estates for the
historic Errol Flynn Ranch. There were to be 4 modern residences accessed by a gated private drive, each carefully sited for privacy in relation to the park-like
landscaped environment. Ultimately only two were completed: "House A" was the first, and remains the purest statement of the architect's intent. With its proximity
to the studios, the residence was planned from the inside-out to suit the needs of the entertainment industry executive: the wide front door invites as it pivots
open to a virtual promenade entry terminating in grand two-story public spaces with use areas defined by light, built-ins and floor elevations. The entertainment
area opens to a pool & spa contiguous to stepped, over-sized patios enclosed within a forest of trees. Upstairs, a bridge cuts through the interior two-story volume
to access the master suite, which looks out to treetops and city lights across the Valley to the San Gabriel Mountains.
Residence includes: 3 bedrooms, maid's room, home theatre with 35mm projection, wine cellar, a three-car garage, and additional off-street parking, all carefully
set within a mature landscape on over six-tenths of an acre.
