A rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant duplex designed by celebrated mid-century architect Allyn E. Morris in 1961. Best known for his iconic Morris Residence in Silver Lake, Morris created this distinctive matched duplex as a standout in Highland Park, a thoughtfully designed property that transcends typical multifamily offerings with its seamless blend of indoor-outdoor living, striking architectural lines, and hillside privacy.

Each unit offers a spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout of approximately 843 square feet, featuring open floor plans, soaring ceilings, and abundant natural light. The owner’s unit is delivered vacant and fully renovated with crisp, modern finishes that honor the home’s mid-century heritage while updating it for contemporary living. Signature floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior, opening to a private balcony and a newly completed terraced, multi-level backyard with sweeping views, an exceptional extension of living space perfect for entertaining or quiet retreat.

The second unit is tenant-occupied under LA rent stabilization, offering stable income and long-term upside potential. Both units enjoy generous private outdoor areas and covered carport parking within the shared parcel. Major systems including electrical and drainage have been thoughtfully upgraded, and all recent city-required work has been completed.

Ideally located moments from Highland Park’s vibrant York and Figueroa corridors, this property places you steps from the neighborhood’s celebrated dining, shopping, and cultural destinations while preserving the architectural integrity and privacy rarely found in multifamily residences.
This is a compelling opportunity for an owner-user seeking a design-forward primary residence with income potential, or a discerning investor looking for a property with enduring character, flexibility, and appreciation potential in one of LA’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
