Nearly Slated For Destruction, a Restored Neutra in West Covina Asks $1.8M

From the kitchen, you step out onto a side patio, which has an opening cut into the roof to allow sunlight to fall on a planter. The previous owners, in an attempt to remodel the house in the Spanish style, had gutted the kitchen. Eric Lamers rebuilt the space with cabinetry based on elevation drawings found in Neutra's "spec book," making changes according to practicality and building codes. Barbara Lamprecht helped the homeowners choose Porous Stone by Dunn Edwards for the paint. Believing that Neutra would have chosen modern fixtures, they installed a GE Monogram built-in refrigerator, wall oven, and induction cooktop. A KWC Suprimo faucet and Blanco sink complete the kitchen.
