About this home

Tucked into Franklin Hills, this 1963 architectural gem by Stephen Alan Siskind is a rare expression of mid-century vision - dramatic, warm, and truly one of a kind. A soaring, asymmetrical gambrel ceiling defines the great room, where angular lines and floor-to-ceiling windows frame lush canyon views and fill the interiors with natural light. The result is a home that feels both expansive and intimate - like a modern treehouse in the city. The updated kitchen features stone countertops, custom cabinetry, and sleek appliances. With three bedrooms and two baths, the flexible layout includes a guest room on the main level and two upstairs bedrooms, including a tranquil primary retreat. Outside, multiple patios invite al fresco dining and cozy evenings by the built-in fireplace. The home's standout feature is a detached, glass-wrapped studio set among the trees - ideal as a home office, creative space, or guest suite. Just minutes from Los Feliz Village, Griffith Park, and top-rated schools, 3986 Clayton offers mid-century living at its finest: peaceful, architectural, and perfectly placed in the heart of the city.
