Sobre Esta Propiedad

The Opdahl Residence, 1957 by Edward A. Killingsworth, FAIA. With the use of two 18 ft. tall redwood walls at the setback lines on both sides of the property, Killingsworth skillfully created an oasis of privacy for the glass walled structure, reflecting pond & peaceful gardens within. Considered by the architect to be his most important work, the house stands as a prototype for building with limited space,& as one of the purest,most sophisticated examples of mid-century modern architecture. As the SoCal chapter of AIA noted in it's honor award,'there is poetry in it's restrained vocabulary of material and form-a precise artistry'. Winner of eight prestigious architectural awards & featured in countless publications, the Opdahl house gave Killingsworth international acclaim. Once thought to be lost to neglect, a meticulous restoration by the current owner has brought the house back to it's original glory. The property is now recognized as an historic landmark by the City of Long Beach.
