Built in 1952 by architect Joseph Miller, this Forest Hills mid-century modern home combines historical significance with contemporary upgrades. Renovated by Joff Masukawa, the house features heated terrazzo floors, a garage with a green roof, and a newly added swimming pool. The renovations, including skylights and eco-friendly solar panels, were made to enhance the home's original design aesthetics. Masukawa's vision was to maintain the classic style while adding modern comforts, leading to commendation from Miller's family for the preservation of the home's architectural essence.
"I immediately saw a swimming pool sitting there, just like in Southern California, and I thought, 'Oh, my gosh, this is the house.'"
"The house was just begging to have them (skylights) and I thought it was important that upgrades didn't detract from that architectural style."
