## Resource

Step into architectural history with the rare Dahlstrom House in Pasadena, designed by legendary modernist John Lautner in 1949. Almost untouched since its creation, this mid-century gem blends seamless indoor-outdoor living with bold concrete, wood, and glass elements — think sliding bedroom walls, a fireplace under beamed ceilings, and a bench that flows straight through glass to the patio. Commissioned by printer Grant Dahlstrom, it’s a living testament to Lautner’s signature style, shaped by his time at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin. Listed for $5.95M (bought in 2009 for $1.3M), this is your chance to own a piece of Southern California’s most iconic architectural legacy — before it’s gone.
