Wallace Neff designed house for sale on Mandeville

Yesterday I was lucky enough to view an original Wallace Neff designed house in Mandeville Canyon and what a treat. The house is still owned by the original owners who had it built in the '60s. I hope that the fortunate person who purchases this house keeps most of the house in tact. Other than remodeling the kitchen and bathrooms, this house is perfect. I did some investigating on Wallace Neff and I found out that one of my favorite houses of all time is one of his work. It was owned by Diane Keaton and it was featured by Architectural Digest before she sold it to Madonna and Guy Ritchie. Wallace Neff is considered responsible for the "California style", drawing influences from Spanish and Mediterranean architecture. He was commissioned by celebrities of the day and is most known for designing the Pickfair mansion in Beverly Hills for Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks.
