First offering in 58 years: The Wegner Residence by architect Hugh Taylor. A marquee property in Historic Beverly Green (Arts District). One of the finest preserved examples of Desert Modernism with butterfly roof, soaring ceilings, and clerestory windows throughout. Film and Art have always thrived in this home owned by Harvard PhD Hart Wegner, who founded the UNLV Dept of Film. Wegner’s extensive library was previously housed here. His wife would paint en plein air while he read, wrote poetry, and published several books. He was friends with illustrator Chuck Jones, and Wegner was instrumental in negotiating for The Howard Hughes Estate to donate its film archive to UNLV. This is a showcase property built for futurists who appreciate a fully resolved work of architecture. Entirely pav ed sheltering crescent porte-cochere acts as the utmost privacy screen, along with a canopy of olive, mulberry, and palm trees for leafy wealth and cooling shade. A spectacular entrance features a paneled solid wood original 1970s front door, prism chandelier, and Italian ceramic tile worthy of the film Casino. The enormous tub-en suite main bedroom serves as a retreat with a private patio, a walk-in closet, built-in bookshelves, and a water closet. Original white stone floor to ceiling double fireplace, entry storage gallery, and two additional peaceful library bedrooms / study. Automatic Wrought Iron Gates, Entirely Fenced and Alarmed with NO HOA. This residence affords light from glass wall sliders, clerestory windows with verdant vistas to the Swimming Pool, Showgirl Flowers, and the Incredible Landscape. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, swimming pool, additional 180 square foot workshop studio with power. Extraordinary Las Vegas Provenance and Swagger.
