1501 Rue Clearview

Perched above Lemon Heights, this exceptional single-story mid-century modern home showcases sweeping 180-degree views from Catalina Island to Palos Verdes, framed by rolling hills and mountains—enjoyed from nearly every room and carried throughout the indoor-outdoor living experience. Designed by a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright and inspired by the iconic Rosenbaum House, the residence embodies organic modernism with clean lines, natural materials, and a strong architectural presence. Inside, soaring post-and-beam ceilings, skylights, and expansive walls of glass fill the open living spaces with light, blurring the line between indoors and out. The home is designed for both relaxed living and entertaining, featuring a dramatic great room that flows effortlessly to multiple patios, an impressive 2,500-square-foot wraparound Ironwood deck, and a grass yard—all thoughtfully positioned to capture views in every direction. The kitchen opens to the den and overlooks the pool area, complete with a firepit and expansive patios for outdoor enjoyment, while the formal dining room opens directly to the impressive deck for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The updated kitchen connects to the main living areas. The flexible layout includes a private primary suite, two additional bedrooms, a detached guest studio, and a pool tucked into the hillside. Complete with a three-car garage and workshop, this is a rare architectural retreat offering privacy, style, and breathtaking views from nearly every vantage point. Set on an expansive lot, this is more than a home—it’s a rare architectural statement and a warm, modern sanctuary defined by light, space, and its exceptional setting.
