Nestled in the hills above the San Fernando Valley, Clear Oak House is a restored and renovated single-story, mid-century home with wrap-around views of the San Gabriel and Santa Susana mountains. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors integrate the living space with the landscape, opening up to a large entertainment deck and a cantilever, corner-infinity edge pool that amplifies the connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Visitors enter the residence, which once belonged to Bing Crosby’s manager, through a beautiful courtyard flanked by native plants and trees.
