Besides being a prolific industrial designer, Greta Magnusson Grossman (1906-1999) also designed more than 25 homes in the Los Angeles area, including this home on Waynecrest Dr. in Beverly Hills. Designed in 1948 by Grossman, the house was originally a 1,500 sq. ft, 2 bedroom, 1 bath, but has recently been renovated and expanded by its current owner Darryl Wilson and now features 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. Wilson along with architect Tony Unruh sought to keep with Grossman's original design aesthetic during the renovation. The 3,171 sq. ft. house originally listed in February for $3.5 million has been reduced to $2.9 million.
