Known as the “Mellenthin Man,” Alan’s experience with Mellenthin Ranch Homes is incomparable. His affinity for these noteworthy properties has led to features in acclaimed publications, articles, and even inclusion in the popular architectural book, A Birdhouse in Paradise – William Mellenthin and the San Fernando Valley Ranch Homes, written by Chris Lukather.

  • In his personal life, Alan has enjoyed remodeling his own Mellenthin home, which you can learn more about here.

These distinctive Valley homes, designed by William Mellenthin in the late 40s and early 50s, are distinguished by their uber character-rich features which include large diamond paned picture windows, a built-in birdhouse or cupola over the garage with spindle, back-to-back used brick fireplaces with the most incredible mantles and detailed mill-work, knotty pine wood paneling and interesting, and almost futuristic glass blocks in the kitchen which invite natural light within the home.

If you are considering putting your Mellenthin home on the market, we encourage you to contact us for a free consultation and assessment. Alan’s unmatched experience, understanding, and appreciation for these unique properties ensure your listing is marketed with the passion required for these Valley originals.

TESTIMONIALS

Alan was masterful in helping my family sell our Mellenthin home that we owned for 60 years. Alan and his team provided us with the guidance and detail that was needed to make educated decisions regarding the listing, showing and selling of the house. Alan’s understanding of the market allowed us to price the home correctly and to show the house at just the right time. We really felt Alan understood our desire to sell the home to not just the highest bidder, but to the right buyer who would maintain the architecture of our Mellenthin.

The smartest thing I did in selling my Mellenthin home was to listen to Alan's advice on how to prepare it for the market. From spiffing up, to establishing a pricing strategy, and all through the negotiations I followed Alan's experience and expertise. The results? 14 offers within 10 days, and it sold for nearly 12% over asking. He's a good guy to work with, always professional and always friendly and he sure has a passion for the architecture and I liked that.

My wife and I hired Alan to help us with the sale of our home in Sherman Oaks. We knew right away that Alan was the right fit because of his experience selling Mellenthin ranch homes in Sherman Oaks, his family was from the area, he knew the name of the builder and was also all around a nice guy. Compass, the firm he works with also offers a service called Compass Concierge which we used to ready the house for sale. Alan’s team of people (interior designer, stager, handyman and painters) handled everything for us, we literally had to move our stuff out and that was it.
