7944 Fareholm Drive

About This Property

Perched above the Sunset Strip, Fareholm is a distinctive enclave known for its collection of modernist and contemporary homes. The neighborhood includes work by architects such as Richard Neutra, R.M. Schindler, Marmol Radziner, Tag Front, XTEN, and Walker Workshop. Among them is 7944 Fareholm Drive, a four-bedroom residence that combines modern design with privacy and sweeping views of Los Angeles. Redesigned by Paul McClean, the home has a clean, contemporary feel balanced by warmer materials and details. A zinc roof and oversized pivot door set the tone at the entrance. Inside, pitched ceilings, recessed LED lighting, and wide-plank red oak floors create spaces that feel polished without being overly formal. A Control4 smart home system manages lighting, climate, and security throughout the house. Large windows and French doors take full advantage of the hillside setting, opening the interiors to broad views of Los Angeles and bringing in plenty of natural light. The main level is centered around an open kitchen, dining, and living area, with several balconies extending the living space outdoors. The city views take on a different character at sunset and in the evening, when the lights stretch across the horizon. The family room adds a more intimate feel with a custom coffered ceiling and fireplace. In the kitchen, Miele appliances include a built-in espresso machine, while a private guest bedroom is tucked away on the main level. A sculptural spiral staircase leads to the lower level and the primary suite, which feels removed from the rest of the house. The suite includes a walk-in closet, spa-like bathroom, and private balcony overlooking the city. Two additional bedrooms are also located on this level, along with a separate deck and dedicated office. With its hillside position, expansive views, and proximity to West Hollywood and the Sunset Strip, 7944 Fareholm Drive offers a rare mix of privacy and modern architecture. More than anything, the setting is what makes the home distinctivethe city is visible from so many of its rooms that it becomes an integral part of the experience.
