What's Special
A once-in-a-lifetime offering, this previously celebrity-owned, gated 1920s Spanish adobe compound blends artistry, intention and privacy in the heart of Hollywood. The main house (approx. 2,083 sq ft, 2 bed/2 bath) features two en-suite bedrooms, paired with a detached two-story guest house (approx. 1,356 sq ft, 1 bed/1 bath). At one point home to Christopher Lloyd, the property carries a playful, artistic spirit that subtly lives throughout the space. Travertine and fossilized coral stone run throughout, with a thoughtfully upgraded kitchen featuring rare, real quartz crystal countertops, and a quartz crystal walled steam shower in the primary suite. Five working fireplaces, four of which were recently rebuilt by premium Boston Brick and Stone, add warmth and presence, while crystals set into the newly upgraded foundation bring a subtle sense of intention and magic. Outside, a coral stone lap pool with a bridge and accompanying hot soaking tub anchor lush, tropical grounds. An outdoor covered atrium with trumpet flowers and a private courtyard create layered spaces that feel both serene and transportive. Restored and enhanced over time, the home blends Mediterranean and adobe details with organic, Gaudi-esque lines and subtle Art Nouveau influence offering a rare sense of beauty, character, and calm in the midst of it all. Highlights of additional extensive upgrades from 2023-2025 include a new roof, new HVAC, remodeled primary bathroom, landscaping and hardscaping throughout.
