Constructed in 1962 by Benno Fischer AIA a Richard Neutra associate architect, this single level, mid-century modernist home is a perfect example of California living.

Intentionally designed so each room looks out on the front courtyard, or lushly landscaped backyard and saltwater pool, the home's floor plan cleverly brings the outdoors in, to create the perfect indoor / outdoor flow.

Benno Fischer, who survived WW2 forced labor camps and immigrated to Southern California to become an architect designing homes, churches and schools. He worked with Neutra for 15 years before establishing his own architectural firm on Melrose Avenue in 1963.
