MLS details indicate that the (Schaffer) residence has been meticulously restored.

Interestingly, there is another Lautner residence for sale in the Foothills, this one, in La Canada, Flintridge and located in the Canyon(Chevy Chase) .
MLS details also indicate that this home has been restored.

$2,400,000
