The Shulman House. An extraordinary architectural estate designed by Steven Ehrlich, FAIA, and regarded as one of the most important residential properties in Brentwood. Concealed behind mature canyon landscaping on approximately 1.3 acres, this nearly 9,000-square-foot, six-bedroom residence is a rare convergence of world-class architecture, scale, privacy, and land. Completed in 1992 for Academy Award-winning screenwriter Tom Shulman, the home received the AIA National Award for Architecture along with multiple additional honors, establishing it as one of the defining residential designs of its era. Despite its pedigree, the property has remained remarkably private, quietly hidden within the canyon for decades. Reached by a long private driveway, Ehrlich's design is both restrained and dramatic. Two striking wings extend across the natural topography, connected by walls of glass, warm natural materials, and expansive volumes that dissolve into the landscape. Nearly every major room opens directly to nature, creating a constant dialogue between architecture, light, and terrain. The result is a residence that feels less built and more organically embedded within the hillside itself. Rolling lawns, layered gardens, and mature trees create a setting rarely found in Los Angeles today. A three-car garage preserves the integrity of the grounds, allowing the architecture and surrounding canyon to remain the focal point. Architecturally significant, deeply private, and virtually impossible to replicate, The Shulman House represents a defining piece of Los Angeles residential design.
