Home of the Week: The 1965 house was an early model home in Beverly Hills

This midcentury-modern pavilion of redwood, glass and concrete has been polished to a high gloss. The 1960s custom-built home was a rare split-level that served as a model in the Trousdale Estates neighborhood of Beverly Hills.

Now restored beyond its original shine, the expanded house has bright interiors that look in on a landscaped interior courtyard with a fountain and open to a heated swimming pool and outside entertainment areas. A double-height front door leads to a dramatic center hall and a two-story living room with a wet bar.
