Nothing beats the vibe of a well designed and well preserved Mid Century Modern home. They really need to be owned by folks who appreciate what they are.
I live in Carmichael, on the river. I toured this home when it was on the market. It was very cool. I’m so pleased to see the new owners preserving and expanding the legacy of this home. Beautiful! I wish I knew them!
To think that your first reaction was to say that this is not a house for a family only to realize that it was actually built for a family... it is absolutely priceless. An amazing house for a beautiful family. Thank you so much for sharing your experience...
I love the geodesic dome in the yard. My father was an architect and a devotee of Buckminster Fuller. So I also had a dome in my back yard as a child. I was an MCM child, now an MCM adult. I love the warmth of this home. ❤
You guys look like good caretakers and the advice in the end was spot on, my family too lives in a 1961 custom built modernist house and it's true, if you want perfection it would drive you nuts. But if you embrace it for what it is and accept imperfections it's awesome to live in houses like these and they should be embraced and protected as important postcards to a great optimistic time in American history.
You always shoot your feature homes beautifully, but this video was stunning. Every detail shot, both interior and exterior was phenomenal. I loved how there were so many exterior detail shots. Beautiful home.
wow what a hidden gem! love the architecture and am excited about doing some research on John Harvey Carter. Thank you for sharing your home and experience! may you and your family enjoy many more wonderful memories there!
Great video post. Beautiful home. And so refreshing to listen to a couple who clearly enjoy the building and appreciate both the quirks and strengths. Nice also to listen to someone people talk about a building not using hushed, art-school language....
Meanwhile living less than 10 miles from this house...my husband and I can dream 😂 beautiful home. So cool to know I live so close to such beautiful homes. Sometimes being surrounded by fast-built cookie cutter homes makes you forget these places exist.
Beautiful, wonderful home and family. As a teenager, I had a good friend whose family lived in a somewhat similar home. Thought, at the time, "Oh, cool house," and that was it. Now I wish I'd really learned more about it-I'm sure it had an amazing story to tell. Thanks for telling this one!
Thank you. Great video showing so special home. Is there a way to see the house layout? How did JH Carter distributed the different living spaces? The "public area" is well showed, but where is the rest and how was it conceived? Many thanks
Can someone please tell the viewer what the girl in the window is doing on the preview picture? Is she doing what I thin she’s doing? And how did that pick make it to the actual landing pick on UA-cam?
Finally, FINALLY, a beautiful home owned by NORMAL PEOPLE!! Please bring us more videos with normal families, instead of the airheads that seem to permeate the landscape...lol!
I agree! I like seeing normal people enjoying a cool house, instead of weird yuppies that inherit millions of dollars and then fetishized architecture into a museum like setting.
Lovely home that's been beautifully preserved but OY VEYYYYYY IS IT DARK!!! And that spiral staircase being the only way to the front doors is a reeeeeeeally "unique" feature that makes it non-functional.

It had such a warm, natural, beautiful feel to it, inside and out. Lovely home and a great video.
Agree! My favorite style. Gorgeous!

Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude I drove by this house and I was like wow what is that, I wish i could see the inside.. and then this pops up on my feed not long after! Crazy

Lovely, warm house perfectly integrated into its site. The slab wood millwork with the diminutive exposed hinge hardware for it is sublime.
It’s beauty!

Nicely done! Beautiful home and family. 1963 was a great year for all things vintage.

Beautiful property. Two areas stand out for me. 1. The Kitchen and 2. The backyard. Great video as always.
Love 🥰 so awesome these guys have embraced living here as a family home - which was what these houses were intended as; not museum pieces.
wow what a hidden gem! love the architecture and am excited about doing some research on John Harvey Carter. Thank you for sharing your home and experience! may you and your family enjoy many more wonderful memories there!
This channel is such a gem! Thank you for beautifully sharing these stunning homes!
Wonderful atmosphere, light and materials! Views into the house from the courtyard are amazing also ❤
very beautiful and the first young family I have seen living in an original MCM home
Great video post. Beautiful home. And so refreshing to listen to a couple who clearly enjoy the building and appreciate both the quirks and strengths. Nice also to listen to someone people talk about a building not using hushed, art-school language....
Wow!!! Amazing in every way!! This channel is my favorite go to for appreciation & inspiration! Bravo 👏🏻
Meanwhile living less than 10 miles from this house...my husband and I can dream 😂 beautiful home. So cool to know I live so close to such beautiful homes. Sometimes being surrounded by fast-built cookie cutter homes makes you forget these places exist.
How come this house looks more modern and futuristic than houses built now?
Beautiful, wonderful home and family. As a teenager, I had a good friend whose family lived in a somewhat similar home. Thought, at the time, "Oh, cool house," and that was it. Now I wish I'd really learned more about it-I'm sure it had an amazing story to tell. Thanks for telling this one!
Lovely episode.
Great work as usual!!
So beautiful
Best lighting ever. Also the music track on this is so good. What is it?
It's me! It's an original score I did for Open Space :) I really appreciate the nice comment!
@@AaronTebache man you nailed it. This is exactly the kind of atmosphere and feeling i love in ambient music. Great work!!
I love it. wow.
Beautiful place, cool family.
Beautiful house.
Gorgeous home
Love it 😊
Thank for the video!
Magnificent
Thank you. Great video showing so special home. Is there a way to see the house layout? How did JH Carter distributed the different living spaces? The "public area" is well showed, but where is the rest and how was it conceived? Many thanks
gorgeous
It’s a beautiful house!
Wabi sabi and midcentury perfect. Cool pad
amazing home - I love this so very much. Wish there were no shoes worn in the home but that's just me. :)
8:34 anyone know what size Nelson saucer pendant this is?
Great minus the artificial turf
Can someone please tell the viewer what the girl in the window is doing on the preview picture? Is she doing what I thin she’s doing? And how did that pick make it to the actual landing pick on UA-cam?
The girl is hanging out on her counter top smiling at the camera from the pass through window...
I kept saying that while watching. "Embrace the cinder blocks. Embrace the cinder blocks."
❤❤❤

👍👍👍
wow
Великолепный дом
Yes!!
👌
Soooo. What was he talking about there at the end?
Классный!
Americans see a few stairs and immediately think it’s not safe for children.
So Nittler went here instead of escaping to Argentina?
Ok., my heart miss micro second of beat because of title on video
Palo Alto?
Anyone else click on this video because of the person spread out on the counter in the video preview icon? 👀
Haha
As nice as this house is, I wouldn't want to say “I live in Nittler's residence” to anyone.
Finally, FINALLY, a beautiful home owned by NORMAL PEOPLE!!

Must be nice to be wealthy.
The house wasn’t expensive, it was about $700,000 (which is very reasonable for being in the capital of California). I toured it when it was for sale.
But how much did it cost? Lol
$800k in 2019. Public records are great.
"Promo sm"
How decadent are these wooden walls
I would havetk.change my last name, ngl.
Please why are there two front doors separated by stairs from driveway leading to the same hall? Love this place though
Lovely home that's been beautifully preserved but OY VEYYYYYY IS IT DARK!!! And that spiral staircase being the only way to the front doors is a reeeeeeeally "unique" feature that makes it non-functional.
