Built: 1928  Declared: 02/05/2013

Built in 1928, this single-family, Spanish Colonial Revival property in Los Feliz was one of a number of model Durex Quality Homes, built by a subsidiary of the F.P. Fay Company to market the area. The homes were designed by architects Harry G. Koerner and William J. Gage, who also designed the Beverly Hills City Hall. The two-story residence is rectangular in plan with a low gabled roof, stucco finish, and wood Monterey-style covered balcony on the second floor.
