5 Beds/5 Baths on 4,999 sqft on a total lot size of 0.40 acres built in 1953. The home is located near the CSUN campus and in the coveted Sherwood Forest zip code. This home truly stands out embodying architectural elements of art deco and mid century modern design. The home is available for $1.25 million as of May 21, 2015. Last changed hands on August 19, 2002 for $790K. Prior to the 2002 sale, the home sold for 2001 for $265K, 1977 for $145K, and 1975 for $73K.
According to the listing, the home is designed by the late architect Jack C. Spak which to be honest, I never heard of, which might be due to the fact that there is very little information about him out there. A quick search in google led me to an LA Times article published on September 4, 1987 discussing a new design for John Wayne Airport by Spak representing Irvine based Gensler & Associates. Today, Gensler is based in San Francisco and is the #1 architectural firm. Spak was based out of Long Beach and I couldnt find anything else regarding other homes he designed so this could be one of the very few available. Spak was born on December 4, 1933 and passed away on Ocotober 10, 1999 at the age of 65.
