The SOHO home tour is tomorrow, Sunday March 27th – for more information, click here:

An unprecedented tour of the first homes built in the over 50-year career of Cliff May, known as the father of the American Ranch House.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to tour the very first homes built by Cliff May. The fabled homes, designed and built between 1932 and 1936, showcase the work of this Southern California Master Builder. The six homes on tour include the first five out of six he built (a sixth was lost) and one of the few Monterey style homes he built, a style that became popular by the late 1930’s.

Located in several communities, Talmadge Park, Presidio Hills, Point Loma, and Loma Portal, and representative of the California ranch style, these homes are the result of May’s experimental early hacienda style and his fascination with the early California adobe haciendas and ranchos. The visitor will be able to see firsthand the origins of the signature style of this master designer, builder, and architect for the first time.

    I fell in love with Cliff May’s designs when I lived in Palos Verdes (L.A. area) which is full of his homes. Thanks for posting.
