The most authentic mid-century modern home in Crestwood Hills, the Grant House, is a true architectural gem designed by the acclaimed A. Quincy Jones. Built in 1950, this property represents an extraordinary piece of architectural history and is now on the market for only the second time in 75 years. This exceptional three-bedroom, two-bath residence embodies the distinctive elements of A. Quincy Jones' architectural vision, showcasing clean lines and geometric simplicity that define its unique vernacular. Vaulted ceilings amplify the sense of space and light, while clerestory windows and concrete block walls create a perfect balance between openness and privacy.

This home offers a seamless blend of privacy and harmony with its lush natural surroundings. Positioned on a flat lot, the property includes two spacious, enclosed yards that provide ample opportunities for personalization, all while honoring the integrity of its mid-century design. More than 100 species of trees and plants grace the home's verdant landscape, creating an intimate sanctuary that enhances privacy and tranquility. Set in the esteemed Crestwood Hills neighborhood, home to iconic works by architects such as Richard Neutra and Craig Ellwood, the Grant House stands as a testament to mid-century modern design. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history, combining timeless elegance with an unparalleled connection to nature.
