Walls of glass surround nearly every room of the U shaped home, offering views of private gardens and the newly refinished pool.

The house lies just north of Mulholland Blvd, a stone’s throw from the Skirball Center. With easy access to the Getty Museum and within the coveted Roscomare school district, get your bids ready. The current asking price is $2.195 million.
