Quincy Jones – Laurel Canyon, $1.4 Million

Quincy Jones designed this house back in 1938 with the assistance of an architect who doubled up as his partner Ruth Schneider, and the former couple did a magnificent job while at it. The LA duplex located in the sprawling LA hills is built across two lots and spans over 2,000 square feet.

One part of the house was the designated living space, while the other was reserved for the musical legend’s studio. Recently, the abode underwent a significant renovation, with all pointers inkling towards a possible listing. A lucky buyer quietly snapped up the impressive property for a little over one million dollars.
