This designer-perfect mid-century 4000 square foot house was designed and built in 1960 by famed architect and dean of architecture at UCLA Richard Anderson as his primary residence, and it has been completely restored by Architectural Digest-published designer Steven Wilder. Designed around six 18-foot tall lava rock pillars between giant sheets of glass rising to vaulted ceilings, this architecturally significant home has been featured in L.A. Magazine and on Home & Garden TV, NBC's Mansion and Millionaires, and Extra!. Its classic, beautiful design has made it a favorite photo and TV shooting location for Vogue, Vanity Fair, MTV, VH1, and many others.

The home is located just off famous Mulholland Drive at the very top of the beautiful Hollywood Hills on a quiet, private, secure cul-du-sac street. (Its hillside setting provides complete privacy in all parts of the house and grounds.) A mere 5 minutes down the hill puts you in the center of on Sunset Strip with its renown restaurants and legendary clubs and night life, and it is minutes from Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and all of the Hollywood attractions. And down the other side of the hills, easy access to Universal Studios and all the television studios in the Valley. You’ll see breathtakingly spectacular airliner views of the entire San Fernando Valley and the San Gabriel Mountains beyond. Far below, you can see the airplanes taking off out of LAX. Living here means swimming, sunning, and lounging high atop Los Angeles. Since the house is situated at the top of the mountain, in the mornings clouds will quite literally roll through your doors before the sun burns through. The view from the master bedroom is gorgeous: the swimming pool and the valley and the mountains. Night brings a dazzling display of sparkling city lights, which you can watch from the living room with its glass walls on three sides, from the dining room, the den and kitchen and master bedroom.

The home offers the latest technology, from access to wireless Internet throughout the house to a state-of-the-art kitchen with Viking range and all-stainless steel appliances. Yet this home is a refuge of calm, its interiors painted in soothing neutral tones. Every room has views of a fountain, and from the arches of water cascading into the pool to the numerous fountains outside each room, the house is filed with the soothing sound of bubbling water. The property is gated, and a private gated motor court allows for private parking inside the gated estate area. A gate intercom adds security.
