Alvarado Estates

Bond Residence (1960)
4449 Yerba Santa
Designed by Richard J. Neutra
Comments: Broad floor-to-ceiling glass front offers a splendid valley view to the north, while connecting the interior to the exterior living spaces (via a patio). Originally a 3-bed, 2-bath plan oriented around the living/family room, this house has been remodeled without the consultation of Neutra yet maintains the same aesthetic of original design. One of four of Richard Neutra’s delightful flat-roofed, floor-to-ceiling glass walled houses in San Diego, one of which (Oxley House) has been the focal point of a heated public debate whether or not his designs deserve historical landmark status (as all are younger than the 45 year-old rule).
