So I moved into this great mid-century modern home in Silver Lake the other day. By that I mean my staging company moved in. If you’re a mid-century modern fan and you’re looking in the Silver Lake neighborhood you simply have to see this one.
The house is known as The Millman House and was built by architect E. Richard Lind in 1950. Lind was the draftsman and protégé of superstar architect Rudolph Schindler. While Schindler is certainly more known today, Lind was by his side during every the step of the way during his most creative period, including when the Case Study Houses were constructed.
Elevated from the street, you enter via a small set of stairs. Notice your front-facing patio. Just one of quite a few perfect spots 1660 Redcliff offers for relaxing or entertaining.
Step inside and you’ll find a space brimming with mid-century style and design including clerestory windows, skylights, a wood beamed ceiling, both cork and bamboo floors. Not to mention the stunning fireplace and the lovely built-in bookshelves.
“Light and bright” only begins to describe this creative and welcoming space.
Just off the kitchen is a cute breakfast nook.
You’ll love the beautiful L-shaped kitchen. The kitchen boasts great views, marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an eat-in area perfect for a quick bite or some homework before dinner.
The sunny master suite contains a half bath, ample closet space, and more of those dreamy clerestory windows.
The second bedroom has views of the backyard pool area.
While the third bedroom has outdoor access to both the front patio and the backyard and pool area.
A spacious hall bath is sleek and large.
And this amazing pool and backyard is going to be your favorite spot all summer long. It’s totally fenced in and private. Not pictured: a secret garden or what the owner calls her “back forty” – a citrus orchard and rows of planter boxes right behind those palm trees. If you’re into home gardening, this could be the place for you.
What also truly sets this mid-century modern home apart is the possibility for income potential. There’s an entire studio downstairs that is private and has its own separate entrance, full bath, and kitchenette.
Whether you decide to Airbnb it, lease it out, use it for visiting guests, or turn it into a writing or artists studio, the choice is yours! I would have trouble deciding myself…
1660 Redcliff is just a stone’s throw from the Silver Lake Reservoir and all the shops and restaurants on both Sunset and Sunset Boulevard. Mid-century modern enthusiasts shouldn’t miss it!
