745 Navy For Sale [sigh]
One of my dream homes is for sale. Sadly, it's in California, is listed for $849k, and only has one bedroom and one bathroom - while I live in Michigan with a family of four and a budget smaller than a postage stamp.
The luscious 745 Navy is on the market. Here are a few pics from the real estate site Curbed LA, and a few more from The Value of Architecture - Los Angeles, a site that showcases architectural properties with the goal of raising awareness of the value of good design. For the best pics, though, check out this excellent slide show from Bulldog Realtors.
745 Navy is a bright and breezy little bungalow of just 700 square feet. It's clean and casual. Just look at that translucent wall! Amazing! I just love that. I also like the concrete floors, the funky carpet treatment in the bedroom, and the fact that it's a remodel of an existing home. It's the kind of place I can easily imagine myself living in.
However, it's not quite the kind of place I can imagine my wife and two kids living in with me, although apparently there's an existing, approved plan for a two-story addition! But for now I think I'll just have to be impressed with it's sunny, groovy design and store away a few ideas for another day.

cool blog! love the pics of all these great houses.
Thanks Terry, glad you enjoy the site!
By the way, I am a huuuge fan of Bent Objects. Brilliant!
Yeah Terry - Bent Objects, and Really Bent - awesome stuff! Keep going man - I'm waiting for that book. You should submit to Running Press in Philadelphia.
Hi, awesome house, though ou are right, not for wife and kids. It's almost like a design study, pick and choose the things that you like for future ideas. Thanx for blogging about this house.
Best Regards, Hans
PS: why do people here not comment on the post? I think this bungalow has plenty of discussion material and is almost provocative in design.
