Property Description
Built in 1950 on spec, 3916 Lemon Ave provided then young architect Paul Tay with an opportunity to showcase the studied sophistication he would soon become known for. Large clerestory windows & dramatic cantilevered beams give notice that a distinctly modernist home lies beyond the private gate.Past entrance courtyard & front door,a black slate tiled foyer gives way to an expansive great room flooded w/light from a wall of south facing windows.In playful variances of height & subtle divisions of space,Tay's architecture is ever present.Roman brick faced fireplace & large wall of built-ins provide focal point for the open plan dining/living room.The spacious & well organized U-shaped kitchen is adjacent,providing an inspired workspace. With walls of glass & private patios at every facing,the house feels dramatically larger than advertised.Designed for total privacy,the pool & gardens create an oasis for relaxation or entertaining.Current owners have made extensive updates:renovation of kitchen+both baths,heating¢ral A/C,electrical panel+wiring,replastered/replumbed pool(ecosmart),landscaping,lighting,&more.Well situated on a peaceful street in the coveted neighborhood of Bixby Knolls;in close proximity to fine dining, shopping,& award winning schools.
