Condor Crag is for the buyer who’s been looking for a real architectural home, not simply a house with mid-century styling or a nice canyon view.
Designed by Harry Gesner in 1958 for Fleet Southcott, a cinematographer for Gunsmoke, the home sits high in the canyon on approximately 4.7 private acres between the Valley and Malibu. The materials and design feel true to the period, with warm wood, stone, glass, flagstone floors, clerestory windows, and exposed structure that keep the house visually connected to the land around it.
The mountain views are built into the way the home lives, with rooms oriented toward the landscape and outdoor areas that make the setting feel even more present. The swimming pool and hot tub look out over the canyon, while the pond, natural waterfalls, boulders, and rock formations add to the privacy and character of the property.
The main house is approximately 2,500 sq ft with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, and there’s also an approximately 600 sq ft detached structure currently configured with 1 bedroom and 1 bath. Across three contiguous lots, the property offers the kind of space, privacy, and view-driven setting that’s getting harder to find.
For buyers drawn to mid-century architecture, design history, a swimming pool, acreage, and a setting that feels private without being far from Los Angeles, Condor Crag is worth a closer look.
