6 open houses to check out this weekend in Los Angeles

This two-story post-and-beam in the Hollywood Hills was built in 1949 for Millard Kaufman, an Oscar-nominated screenwriter and the co-creator of the cartoon character Mr. Magoo, and his wife, Lorraine. Three top-notch modernists—Richard Neutra, Alexander Ban, and Josef Van Der Kar—played a role in the home’s design and expansion, and its grounds were planned by renowned landscape architect Garrett Eckbo. Thoroughly renovated in 2018, the 2,503-square-foot home has four bedrooms, three baths, beamed ceilings, multiple skylights, hardwood and concrete floors, and walls of glass.
