Foster Rhodes Jackson Home In Rancho Palos Verdes

Via Curbed LA: This mid-century modern has just been chopped by $200,000 and is now on the market for $1.599 million. Situated between a nature preserve and the beach, it's the ideal place for active nature-lovers who want the best of both worlds: surf and turf. The original listing boasts that there are "no power lines or poles" getting in the way of views of "Catalina, bluffs, white water, canyon and nature preserve from all rooms." And it's a green house, with a "state of the art tracking solar system that can cover most power needs." The 2,488 square foot house has three bedrooms, two baths, and is on a .35 acre lot. And to top it all off, Curbed LA notes the home's impeccable pedigree: "This cubist residence overlooking Abalone Cove was built in 1964 by Foster Rhodes Jackson, a protege of Frank Lloyd Wright."
