Designed by legendary industrial designer and Mid-century modern tastemaker Niels Diffrient as his personal residence, this 1962 Mid-century modern trophy inspires ease and relaxation with unparalleled views across Millard Canyon from a private and eucalyptus scented rear patio. A marriage of nature and design, this property engages and delights from the circular driveway, anchored by mature oak and pine trees, to the Mid-century exterior and interior architectural details. Noteworthy design elements...Designed by legendary industrial designer and Mid-century modern tastemaker Niels Diffrient as his personal residence, this 1962 Mid-century modern trophy inspires ease and relaxation with unparalleled views across Millard Canyon from a private and eucalyptus scented rear patio. A marriage of nature and design, this property engages and delights from the circular driveway, anchored by mature oak and pine trees, to the Mid-century exterior and interior architectural details. Noteworthy design elements include decorative beams which follow the roof line to bridge structures, as well as vertical wood paneling at both interior and exterior, and a vertical slat screen-style fence separating two of the three outdoor spaces -- these features gracefully integrate the three separate structures: garage, creative studio, and main house. The main house offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and wall-to-wall windows spanning the kitchen, dining and living areas to highlight unobstructed canyon and mountain vistas. Featuring many hallmarks of Mid-century architecture, the house boasts soaring vaulted ceilings, vertical wood paneling, covert built-in cabinets, a sitting-height hearth and ultra-cool fireplace nook. Diffrient's detached creative studio includes a full kitchen and 3/4 bath, with sliding doors that open onto a central courtyard. The property is completed by the two-car garage with workspace. This Altadena home is a one-of-a-kind time capsule with a once in a lifetime view, now ready for its next steward. Come for the architecture, stay for the VIEW!
