Property Description
"The Thomas Young House", 1962. Architect William E. Mader, AIA". LA-based comedian Thomas Young enrolled the formidable talents of architect William E. Mader, AIA, to design this mid-century property atop the Hollywood Hills. Mader was an an alumnus of USC's renowned School of Architecture, designing notable mid-century properties throughout LA and Palm Springs before eventually becoming principal architect for the Irvine Company. Located just off of iconic Mulholland Drive, the "Thomas Young Residence" is one of 14 distinctive mid-century modern properties that form the "Eureka Summit Residential Historic District". Mader positioned the 2,405 SqFt home to fully embrace its panoptic views, stretching from Universal City to Woodland Hills and framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that invite the San Fernando Valley landscape - including mountains views - into daily life. With minimal street setback, and deliberate absence of traditional front and side yards, the Young residence emphasizes openness, privacy and modernism's embrace of nature and light. Historic marketing materials for Eureka Summit (a subdivision of Wrightwood Estates) pulled no punches: "If you are looking for an ordinary house in an ordinary street with ordinary dark, old-fashioned living... don't come to see."
