Condor Crag, Harry Gesner, 1958. Set high on a private drive among granite boulders, mature succulents, native trees, and Matilija poppies, Condor Crag feels connected to the land before the house even comes fully into view. The approach is quiet and dramatic in the best way, with the landscape slowly… Read More revealing one of Harry Gesner's most memorable canyon homes. Designed in 1958 for Gunsmoke cinematographer Fleet Southcott, the residence is anchored directly into the granite cliff with steel beams that make the house feel like it grew out of the rock rather than being placed on top of it. An entry pond sits near the front approach, reflecting the sky and stone and setting a calm tone before you step inside. The main residence is approximately 2,500 square feet and carries the feeling of the site throughout the interiors. Flagstone floors bring the geology indoors, while clerestory windows draw soft northern light into the living spaces. A soaring Windy Hill Rock fireplace, quarried from the same outcropping beneath the house, anchors the main room with a sense of permanence and place. A sunken bar is tucked naturally into the architecture, adding to the easy, lived-in character of the home. Nearly every room is oriented toward the view, with seven peaks of the Santa Monica Mountains framed through glass as you move through the house. The primary suite feels especially private, with two full walls of glass opening to the mountain panorama and sliding doors that lead to an expansive aluminum deck cantilevered over the cliff. The primary bath includes a sunken stone shower that feels deeply connected to the surrounding rock and setting. Just outside the suite, a hot tub and outdoor bathtub sit beneath the canopy of a mature Deodar Cedar, with a quiet sitting area tucked into one of the most private corners of the property. Owls nest in the branches above, hawks ride the air off the cliff face, and the wildlife here feels like part of daily life rather than something separate from it. That connection between house and land is what gives Condor Crag so much of its character. At the far end of the property, on its own rock shelf, the detached guest structure offers approximately 800 square feet with 1 bedroom and 1 bath. It works beautifully for visitors, extended family, a studio, or a separate creative retreat. Between the two structures, a freeform lagoon-style pool with beach entry sits into the rock shelf, surrounded by granite and open sky. Its organic shape mirrors the boulders around it, giving the pool area a private, natural feeling. The property was also built with real resilience in mind. A private domestic well and fully owned solar system with backup batteries provide true off-grid capability. Roof-perimeter fire sprinklers are fed by both the well and the pool, and the metal roof and expansive aluminum decking add meaningful wildfire preparedness without taking away from the beauty of the architecture. Set on approximately 4.7 acres across three contiguous lots, Condor Crag is about six miles from Malibu and six miles from the Valley, yet it feels far removed from both. With its privacy, architectural pedigree, mountain views, and rare relationship to the land, this is a property that would be nearly impossible to recreate today. Read Less
