Presenting Historic Cultural Monument 868 - The O'Neill Duplex No. 1 by Rodney Walker in Silver Lake. Rodney Walker contributed Residences #16-18 in the Case Study House Program after studying under RM Schindler. Having shunned formal AIA licensing throughout his career, he considering himself a builder and craftsperson, taking an active, physical role in the building and construction of his homes. This single level, side-by-side duplex originally built for Virginia O'Neill in 1953 is enveloped in a serene natural setting, oriented with views from every room toward the sparkling Silver Lake Reservoir, Hollywood sign, and the Griffith Observatory. Each unit offers a flexible floorplan of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with expansive floor-to-ceiling walls of glass opening to private yard spaces that seamlessly blends indoor/outdoor living. The property is uniquely intact with low pitched gabled rooflines and exposed beams, wood paneling, louvered windows, built-in cabinetry and combed plywood exterior siding. Both units have undergone sensitive restoration work to retain its original integrity in design and materials. Sited up a private driveway, with 4 parking spaces, EV charging station and fully gated, secure entry for residents. Photographed by Julius Shulman in 1954, Duplex No. 1 and Duplex No. 2, both built for the original owner, are sited across two adjacent graded lots, the latter of which has since been sold and converted into a single family home. Owners currently enjoy significant yearly tax savings with enrollment in the Mills Act Tax Credit Program. An exclusive offering set amidst a hillside replete with some of the most rare mid century architecture in the world - the cause celebre of Silver Lake.
