Description

810 Franklin Street is more than a home it is a rare architectural treasure. Walking through the front door you are immediately amazed by the sparkling panoramic views of the Ocean,Catalina, and Palos Verdes. Architect Carl Maston designed this 1947 home, and the residence stands as an exceptional example of postwar modernism, thoughtfully preserved for contemporary living. The home follows the hillside of Mt. Olivet and enjoys the sunrises, sunsets, and seasonal light visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows. From the moment you enter, the home unfolds like a composition of light and space. Expansive windows capture panoramic views of the Pacific, Catalina Island, the Getty, the Santa Monica Mountains, current views of the Brentwood Country Club greens, while a sculptural custom designed mahogany staircase becomes a centerpiece. The open floor plan is both warm and expansive, a signature of Maston's clean modern style. With three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, the layout balances functionality with moments of quiet and private retreat, offering effortless flow for daily living or gracious entertaining. Anchoring the outdoor experience is the iconic approximately 40-foot circular pool, recently refinished and surrounded by reimagined decks and manicured landscaping that honor the home's mid-century elegance. Indoor and outdoor living merge seamlessly, embodying the relaxed sophistication of Southern California living, plus a pool/cabana room that could be a potential bed and bath. The family/media room features built-ins that reflect the home's architectural integrity, while the downstairs bedroom with ensuite bath provides ideal privacy for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite includes a large walk-in closet that blends luxury with practicality.The remodeled kitchen pairs modern convenience with the home's timeless character, a welcoming space to gather, cook, and create as Pacific breezes drift through the open windows.With your personal touches, this remarkable residence has the potential to become a true showpiece and an inspired architectural canvas ready for its next chapter.
