The roofline is the defining move here — a wide arc that extends over the main living space and out towards the view. Timber beams follow the curve overhead, with large panes of glazing beneath, looking across Los Angeles to Catalina Island and the Pacific. Dating from 1970, the house in Trousdale Estates is attributed to Harry Gesner.

Inside, the floor steps down towards the terrace in a series of shallow levels, one to a main room with a curved fireplace that repeats the line of the ceiling. Stone floors run throughout the living areas. Outside, the pool runs along the edge of the site, set against the drop of the hillside.
The house has six bedrooms and six bathrooms across approximately 6,586 square feet, on a 0.63-acre plot. It is currently listed for a hefty $27,998,000.
