Stunning mid-century modern view home by architect Burnett C. Turner, AIA perched in the hills of Los Feliz. Built in 1959 for Mr. & Mrs. Alfred Purvis and purchased in 1974 by stewards Mr. & Mrs. Kenneth Spiker, the home is just a few doors up from Turner’s own former home. A portico beneath the house leads to an ample parking area, terraced yard and a short flight of stairs to the entry. Inside is a treasure trove for mid-century lovers, every corner replete with vintage details. You’ll find period perfection in the great room, which features floor to ceiling glass, vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, cork floors, and a stunning block wall with built-in cement bench running the entire length of the room. Indoor/outdoor flow is at its prime here — the living area opens to a patio overlooking city lights, and the dining area opens to a deck facing a tranquil ravine and Burbank/Glendale beyond. The bedroom wing offers a master bedroom with huge walk in closet and en suite bath, along with another bedroom and bathroom featuring cork floors and fabulous wallpaper. True to the era, expansive windows offer abundant natural light and let the outside in. A detached guest suite/studio with its own half bath and closet and a large enclosed storage room take advantage of the topography to offer potential to live beyond the main house. Mere moments from the Village, Griffith Park, the Observatory and the Greek and poised in a serene setting, this retreat is a true architectural gem.
