Welcome to 12722 Jimeno Drive, the Eichler home you have been waiting for. This stunning property features a steep central gable, vertical groove paneling, amazing views, and an iconic double A-frame design. Located in the only Eichler tract in LA County, Balboa Highlands, this home is a true architectural gem. Designed by one of Joseph Eichler’s most beloved architects, A. Quincy Jones, this gable-style house has been admired for decades. Flanked by flat-roofed bedrooms and a garage on either side of an open atrium, the high roof of the central gable creates a mesmerizing gathering space at the heart of this mid century modern home. This revolutionary roof style marked a radical departure from traditional 1960s home design, providing soaring volume to the center of the house, which offers timeless appeal. As you approach the house, you are greeted by the carport entry door, which leads into the iconic Eichler atrium, flooded with natural light and vegetation. Stepping inside, the interior living space immediately conveys the essence of Eichler design with its A-frame ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows, and central fireplace. Located in the heart of the home, this living space is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, with eastern-facing windows allowing the day's first light to cascade throughout the room, instilling a sense of presence and peace. The modern-style kitchen is open to the secondary living space and dining room, with custom dual-pane floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the backyard, perfect for entertaining guests with spectacular city and mountain views. With five total bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a sliding door to the backyard and a walk-in closet, this Eichler provides plenty of space and inspiration. Family-owned by one of A. Quincy Jones’ associate architects, this house and lot was handpicked and is presented for the first time on the market. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of mid-century architectural history.
