Montecito View House
Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monument #529,
Declared April 23, 1991
Built in 1909 and designed by architect Lester S. Moore, this Craftsman bungalow overlooks the Arroyo Seco. It was one of the very first homes constructed in Montecito Heights, and was featured on the cover of the Mutual Building Company's advertising pamphlet. The home features a clinker brick and Arroyo stone chimney and is built in a style reminiscent of the work of the Greene brothers of Pasadena.
