Built in 1959

Designed by acclaimed architect Harry Gesner, this three-level Norwegian Boathouse is a unique, mid-century standout, quietly nestled atop the Hollywood Hills above Mulholland Drive. Among the Gesner portfolio, which includes iconic works such as The Malibu Wave House (an inspiration for Sydney's famed Opera House), Steel House, Ravenseye & Cole House, this 2,400 sq ft home beautifully exemplifies Gesner's core futuristic design elements with an accentuated roof & dramatic cathedral-like windows. Purchased from the original owner in 2019 with three bedrooms (now reconfigured as two) with three bathrooms and two kitchens, this serene work of art includes a yard, garden, and covered two-car parking. Two full upper-floor decks and a glass-encased third lower floor yield unobstructed views of the Hollywood Sign and an auditorium-like presence over the Santa Monica Mountains. The current owners focused on restoring the house to the original Atomic Age period style with the main level featuring an updated kitchen. Generously sized bedrooms, a handsome library-office, a spacious steam room, three gas fireplaces, a full laundry room, and a dreamy den with writer's nook top off this one of one.
