There is no shortage of interesting residential architecture in the Los Angeles area of Abbot Kinney and Venice Beach. But this distinct domicile in Venice, CA, built by Viennese architectural firm Coop Himmelb(l)au, is a real standout.
J. Stewart Burns, a TV writer and producer whose projects include “The Simpsons” and “Futurama,” purchased the wildly original Venice landmark in 2014 for $2,300,000, property records show. He recently listed the home for $5,800,000.
The gated compound has four bedrooms and 3.5 baths, in 2,522 square feet of living space.
