Brentwood's Priciest Homes: 414 Avondale Avenue

This 3,443-square-foot beautifully renovated and restored home at 414 Avondale Ave. in Brentwood could be yours for $6,995,000. It's been on the market for 70 days.

Designed by world-renowned modernist architect Richard Neutra, this three-bedroom home was originally built in 1942 for NBC radio producer John Nesbitt, according to agent Dana Cataldi. It was restored by acclaimed designer Barbara Barry and architect David Serrurier. A master bedroom was added to the main structure and two bedrooms were added to the ancillary structure, adding space and function while honoring Neutra's vision and style, Cataldi wrote.

"Designed with total integrity channeling Neutra's sensibilities of understatement and humble materials, a harmony of light, colors and textures combine to create a tranquil indoor-outdoor living space with the main house opening to mature garden," the agent wrote.

The lush gardens and tropical plants create an oasis on the grounds, and the property is even centrally located to Brentwood, local shops and restaurants.

The property is listed by Cataldi and brokered by Partners Trust.
