Neutra’s Koblick House in Silver Lake

1816 Silverwood Terrace
Los Angeles, CA 90026

3 BR, 2 BA
$849,000

Richard Neutra’s Koblick House was built in 1937 for art professor Harry Koblick. I saw the three-story duplex, located in the hills above Silver Lake, when it first came on the market last month. It came on with an accepted offer, but now it’s back on as an active listing. The 1,620 square foot architectural is in good condition–albeit close to original–and there are two vacant lots on either side.

The upper unit has 2 bedrooms and 1 bath and currently rents for $1,890 a month. The lower unit has 1 bedroom and 1 bath and rents for $1,080 a month. Since the rents are a bit low, this property would be ideal for a collector looking to occupy the entire residence, rather than a buyer seeking an income property.

The duplex is sited on a 6,403 square foot lot. There are built-ins, hardwood floors and lots of light through large windows.

Schindler/Ain Duplex In The Hollywood Hills

6853 Pacific View Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90068

Unit 1 – 2BR, 1BA
Unit 2 – 1BR, 1BA
$799,000

This new listing has enough history to satisfy the most seasoned architecture buff. In 1912 a hunting cabin was built for the Dodge family in the Hollywood Hills. The hillside property (which has been owned by the same family for the last 80 years) has views of the Hollywood sign, Observatory and city lights. In 1950 the family hired R.M. Schindler to remodel one side of the duplex. According to the owner, shortly thereafter Gregory Ain moved into the other side and remodeled that half. Two mid-century modern masters for the price of one!

Now this home is on the market and presents an opportunity for a new owner to enjoy the work of two of the most important mid-century modern architects of the last decade in one building.
