Ehrbar House, Merl Lee Barker, Barker & Ott 1927

Elegant French Normandy house originally designed by Merl Barker (1888-1970) of the architectural firm Barker & Ott. The firm also designed the Good Shepherd Catholic Church Beverly Hills 1930; the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church (Hollywood 1921); and the Spanish Gothic chapel at Mt. Saint Mary's College in Brentwood (1939). The house has kept its original 1927 charm including a fabulous Great Room with stenciled French Gothic ceiling, gleaming hardwood floors, wood-burning fireplace, wrought iron ceremonial gates and exquisite period light fixtures. All systems have been updated including central air and heat, new slate roof, remodeled kitchen and family room.

The three bedroom, three bath house in 3,103 sq. ft. is currently (March 2013) available for lease for $4995.00 month. Give me a call if you would like to see it! Michael Locke, 323.533.3161.
