The Thorgusen Residence | A Timeless Masterpiece of Mid-Century Modernism A true architectural treasure, The Thorgusen Residence is a masterwork of mid-century modern design, originally conceived by noted architect Robert "Boulder" Thorgusen. This rare and refined gem has been meticulously restored and thoughtfully reimagined for the discerning contemporary lifestyle, offering an unparalleled fusion of classic elegance and modern comfort. Nestled behind secure gates on a lush, private site in the coveted Hollywood Hills, the residence enjoys serene green vistas in every direction. The home exemplifies authentic post-and-beam architecture, with expansive walls of glass that dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, inviting the natural surroundings into every room. Spanning approximately 4,100 S/F, the (3) Bed (3) Bath home is a radiant showcase of architectural brilliance. The interior glows like a jewel box, with custom light boxes artfully integrated throughout to enhance mood, depth, and ambiance. At the heart of the home lies a dramatic central pool, a design marvel that flows beneath one wing of the structure via an indoor crossing - an immersive feature rarely seen even in the most luxurious properties. The residence is designed for sophisticated entertaining. Multiple garden patios and expansive decks surround the home, including a generous private deck off the primary suite, offering a secluded perch above the landscape. The floor plan is intelligently designed with curated sitting areas throughout, ideal for hosting intimate gatherings or enjoying moments of quiet reflection. Towering ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass lead from the formal sitting room to a cascading waterfall, providing a tranquil focal point that enhances the connection to nature. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, adjoined by a spectacular showroom-style flex space with soaring ceilings and panoramic views of the motor court - a perfect setting for an artist's studio, home office, or gallery. This unique offering also presents a rare compound opportunity: the property shares a gated, private driveway with the adjacent home at 9029 Hollywood Hills Road, allowing for the potential creation of an exceptional multi-generational estate or a luxurious guest compound. A turnkey offering steeped in Los Angeles' rich architectural legacy, The Thorgusen Residence is more than a home; it is an enduring work of art.
