In 1961 an Italian Terrazzo contractor purchased a plot of land with a tree on it, sitting atop the Eagle Rock hillside, overlooking the verdant slopes of Glendale. He designed and custom built this mid-century modern dwelling to house his growing family, who would be raised there, host numerous family gatherings and holidays there for more than 60 years.
Now the home is ready for its second owner and has been lovingly refreshed to welcome today’s buyer with an appreciation for craftsmanship. The home was blessed with incredible Terrazzo installations throughout, from the front and back golden marble & crimson porches, glistening floor-to-ceiling mint green terrazzo bathrooms, cappuccino speckled laundry room, and even a custom-poured terrazzo kitchen countertop and backsplash, all circa 1961.
The spacious 1,872 sq ft home boasts three generous-sized bedrooms, a formal living room with golden fieldstone fireplace and hardwood floors with easy access to the back patio for perfect indoor/outdoor entertaining.
