June 23--This exotic Modernist-style home, perched on a promontory across from The Getty, is said to have hosted such musical guests as Ringo Starr and members of Fleetwood Mac in the late '70s. Drawing inspiration from Mid-century Modern design, free-flowing interiors feature walls of glass, beamed ceilings, freestanding fireplaces and a pond/waterfall feature. Outdoors, sweeping city and ocean views create a backdrop for the swimming pool, a koi pond and a raised deck.
