Take a tour of the ultra-modern estate of the late 'Simpsons' co-creator Sam Simon, which just sold for $12.5 million by Talia Avakian on May 27, 2016, 10:20 AM 
A sprawling Los Angeles estate that formerly belonged to Sam Simon, the late co-creator of "The Simpsons," just sold for $12.5 million, the Los Angeles Times reported. With a property that totals about 1.5 acres, the residence actually includes two homes: a chic modern residence and a second, more historic home designed by architect Richard Neutra in 1948. The house was part of Arts & Architecture magazine's postwar Case Study House Program, which commissioned architects to build affordable and modern homes. Simon died in March 2015 after a battle with colon cancer. The estate first went on sale for $18 million last September and was recently listed for $14.5 million before selling for its final price. From its cascading swimming pool to its chic glass features, here's what the property looks like inside.

Neutra's 2,000-square-foot 1948 home was one of 34 designed as part of the Case Study House Program. Today, only 21 of the original homes remain standing. 
At the time, Neutra built the residence for Stuart and Lucia Bailey, creating a clean and crisp living room that includes floor-to-ceiling glass.
