The Mar Vista modern, listed for $3.995 million, draws the eyes upward with its sloping, triangular roof and floor-to-ceiling windows that rise with the roofline. The home's distinctive roofline provides cover for the outdoor spaces while adding volume to the living spaces inside. Inside, the 3,082-square-foot floor plan has been updated with leathered stone countertops and hand-glazed Heath tile. The floors are a mix of maple wood and polished concrete. Ipe wood decking runs level with a lap swimming pool. At the far end of the grounds is a separate structure that serves as an office/guest suite.
