About the Listing X725210102 - C117115
The A.C. Tobias Residence: A designated Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument and a remarkable expression of early Arts & Crafts design. Designed in 1908 by the architectural partnership of George J. Webster and Neal Dow Barker as the personal residence of developer Archibald Clark Tobias, the home was built during Los Angeles' transformation from a landscape of orange groves and farmland into a growing metropolis. Today, it stands as an enduring example of the craftsmanship, materials, and thoughtful design that defined the era.Beyond the deep front porch, richly stained woodwork, leaded glass windows, box-beam ceilings, built-in cabinetry, and period lighting create a sequence of spaces defined by warmth, scale, and craftsmanship. Thick square columns frame the formal living and dining rooms, while a handsome brick fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases anchors the heart of the home. Throughout, original millwork and thoughtfully composed sightlines speak to the home's architectural pedigree. Over the years, the current owners have undertaken a stewardship-minded restoration that honors the home's historic character while enhancing daily living. The kitchen was thoughtfully reimagined with custom millwork cabinetry, African mahogany counters, a copper sink, unlacquered brass fixtures, vintage lighting, and a restored vintage refrigerator. Nearby, the laundry room was rebuilt with custom cabinetry, period-appropriate hardware, and the restoration of the home's original 1908 utility sink.The home's bathrooms offer a compelling dialogue between preservation and thoughtful evolution. A charming guest bath retains its vintage character with restored wood detailing and classic proportions, while the architect-designed primary suite introduces a beautifully executed en-suite bath whose materials and craftsmanship pay homage to the home's Arts & Crafts roots.Outside, drought-tolerant gardens, herringbone brick pathways, a rebuilt rear deck, and extensive infrastructure improvements reflect the same level of care found indoors. A detached studio provides flexible space for creative pursuits, a home office, fitness studio, or workshop.Ideally positioned near Exposition Park, USC Village, Mercado La Paloma and Michelin-starred Holbox, the residence enjoys convenient access to DTLA, Culver City, West Adams, and some of Los Angeles' most exciting cultural and culinary destinations. Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, neighborhood cafes, parks, museums like the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which is opening later this year and everyday conveniences are all within easy reach. Along with local favorites including Picala, Johnny's Pastrami, Highly Likely, Vicky's All Day, Cento, Cento Raw Bar, Alta, Damn I Miss Paris, Fleur et Sel, and Chulita. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, offering scenic hiking trails and panoramic views. Together, these amenities create a lifestyle that pairs historic architecture with the best of contemporary Los Angeles living.
