About this home

Welcome to this extraordinary and architecturally significant home designed by international architect John Pawson, nestled in the hills of Sherman Oaks at 3944 Cody Rd. Built in 2001, this modern sanctuary is seamlessly cantilevered into its steep hillside landscape, veiled behind a private, bougainvillea-draped gate and a towering bamboo grove. Step inside to discover a light-flooded, minimalist interior defined by expansive walls of sliding glass that blur the boundary between indoors and out. The primary living spaces feature elegant stone tile flooring that flows naturally onto canyon-facing balconies, perfect for taking in the tranquil, organic backdrop. A sleek, open-concept kitchen serves as the visual anchor of the entertaining space, complete with minimalist cabinetry. Offering 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms across 2,036 square feet of refined living space, this residence provides both comfort and striking aesthetics. The spa-inspired baths feature seamless glass showers and warm stone finishes. Architectural surprises elevate the experience at every turn, from a warm wood-paneled staircase to a bold, color-drenched red architectural and traditional Japanese Tea Room that defies convention. Situated in its highly secluded hillside location, this property delivers a rare combination of raw architectural materials and profound natural privacy.
