The George R. Kress House is a Tudor Revival-style home in a canyons area of Los Angeles, California that was built in 1931. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
Located in Benedict Canyon in a private gated community, it is a 98feet by 27feet house ranging from one-story tall on its south end to three stories on the north. It faces east. It has a terra cotta tile roof.
It is significant both for its association with a builder and practical engineer who moved buildings, George R. Kress, and for its architecture.[1]
Kress moved hundreds of houses in Pittsburgh and in Los Angeles. In Los Angeles the buildings he moved included mansions and some 13-story buildings.[2]
