The house is a single-floor, ranch style with three bedrooms. living with fireplace, dining, kitchen, laundry, rec room, granny flat and two patios. A unique mid-century-modern custom residence designed by James W. Strutt in 1959 and built in 1961. 2,400 sq. ft. All the original architectural elements were preserved: mahogany walls, on-site-made kitchen and bathroom cabinets, hyperbolic paraboloid T&G ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows with hand-made cedar mullions.
O southern Moon, bathe my house in gentle light
as shadows turn like clock hands west to east
to fade with the stars, as shadows
march again across the earth.
