THE HAWK HOUSE, 1939 Harwell Hamilton Harris, Architect. Our rare and significant offering is a striking example of H. H. Harris at his early simple best. Walls of glass and an almost Japanese simplicity define the public rooms. Outdoor terraces extend the living spaces into nature itself, and there is a wonderful entertaining and dining area adjacent to the kitchen. On the lower floor there are two bright and well-proportioned bedrooms, and a generous bathroom. Iconic views of the reservoir, Lautner's "Silvertop, " the Griffith Observatory, and Hollywood Sign - all in a prime Silver Lake location.
