The Milky Way Modern Urban Retreat

Welcome to Garduno-Heiser House (1960; Raul F. Garduno, Architect), your own private urban wellness retreat nestled in the heart of the city.

Featured in Dwell and numerous other publications, this historic post-and-beam home represents the pinnacle of mid-century modern style, comfort and charm with its walls of glass, luxurious walnut fixtures and sweeping views of Hollywood sign, Griffith Observatory and the San Gabriel Mountains. Echoing Pierre Koenig’s Stahl House, the home is dramatically cantilevered against the Silver Lake hillside and features multiple covered decks (and private patios for each bedroom) that help seamlessly integrate the indoors and outdoors.

Set on a thoughtfully landscaped and private lot, the home contains original Gladding McBean tilework, authentic George Nelson modular shelving, a Malm fireplace, integrated art by ceramicist David Gil, and a mosaic homage to Charles D. Kratka’s LAX work.
