About 1449 N Fordham Avenue
Step into a timeless piece of architectural history with this Mid-Century Modern Eichler home, designed by visionary Joseph Eichler and inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. These iconic homes feature open, airy floor plans and innovative materials that create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Floor-to-ceiling windows, expansive living areas, and a private atrium offer natural light and tranquility. Clean lines and minimalist design echo Wright's influence, while vibrant exteriors and functional beauty give these homes a distinct modern flair.With fewer than 600 Eichlers in Southern California--and just over 100 in Thousand Oaks--this is ideal for creatives, innovators, and design lovers. An Eichler is more than a house; it's architectural art that connects you to nature and the California lifestyle.This dramatic Double-Gable Eichler sits on a rare elevated corner lot in a quiet cul-de-sac. Beautifully renovated to honor the original concept, it was envisioned by the acclaimed Jones & Emmons firm. Enter through the central atrium and experience expanded living spaces with soaring volume and light--true indoor/outdoor living in your own sanctuary.The spacious 5-bedroom layout includes an extra-large open living and dining area plus a dedicated laundry room for added functionality. Modern upgrades include a brand-new kitchen with stainless appliances and breakfast bar, and fully updated baths with a soaking tub and frameless glass showers. Every detail respects the home's mid-century roots while delivering contemporary comfort.Enjoy serene views of Tarantula Hill from the front and the expansive backyard. The setting is peaceful yet dramatic--perfect for those seeking a retreat with strong architectural identity. Move-in ready and ideally located near the 101 freeway, top-rated schools, premier shopping, dining, hiking, Wildwood Park, and the Santa Monica Mountains--just 30 minutes to Malibu and under an hour to Burbank Studios and Santa Barbara.
