About this home
Temple in the Trees | The quintessential Laurel Canyon architectural compound, comprising two homes on three contiguous lots totaling more than 11,000 square feet. A 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath main residence was designed by architect Barry Gittelson for Stan Madson of the influential Bodhi Tree Bookstore. Built amidst towering mature oak trees, the 1979 home is a soulful expression of modern architecture, detailed craftsmanship, and natural beauty. Its living spaces wrap around a soaring central atrium that operates as both stairway and light well. A multi-year rehabilitation led by Venn Studio brought extensive system and finish updates while taking great care to honor the home's wood work and details handcrafted by its original owner. The home's interconnected spaces are dramatically woven together with natural light and views. A grand split level living and dining area is at its apex, connected to the outdoors by direct access to an expansive rear deck with sweeping, vast, and unexpected vistas. At street level, a separate 1953 bungalow provides a character-filled two-bedroom layout with an office, sitting room, kitchen, and shaded outdoor patio- creating an ideal setting for guests, creative work, or additional living space. It has its own address, garage, and dedicated parking. With a total of three enclosed garage spaces and two additional off-street spaces, the property offers exceptional parking for the canyon. Beyond its inherent charm, the three-lot configuration introduces meaningful upside potential. With the help of Venn Studio, the current owners have mapped out lot line adjustment possibilities, illuminating the option of potential further development of the lower home and adjacent parcel, subject to approvals. This flexibility positions the property not only as a private retreat but also as a compelling investment with upside potential. A rare and evocative offering where architecture, nature, and future potential come together....
