Welcome to the Golden Age of Hollywood. Designed and built between 1927 and 1930 by renowned architect and city planner Franz Herding as his personal residence. This approximately 6,000-square-foot Spanish Colonial Revival home offers a level of character, scale, and authenticity rarely found today. While the photography offers a preview, this is a residence that must be experienced in person. Set just below the Lake Hollywood Reservoir, this home features expansive living spaces filled with natural light, exposed wood-beamed ceilings, custom tile work, arched passageways, and five fireplaces throughout. Walls of windows frame sweeping hillside views, while the main living areas open seamlessly to a large private terrace, ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The flexible layout includes five bedrooms (with potential for a sixth), 6.5 bathrooms, multiple living and working spaces, and a private-entry suite ideal for guests or staff. The primary suite offers exceptional scale, featuring a fireplace, spa-style bath, and dry sauna, creating a true retreat within the home. Unique details throughout, including a Prohibition Era pass-through butler's bar. Designed as part of a larger hillside estate, the property has a rich and well-documented history. Past owners include actor Eddie Albert and comedian Stan Laurel of Laurel and Hardy, reflecting the home's long-standing connection to Hollywood's creative community. This home hosted the very first screening of Rebel Without a Cause, starring James Dean. Over the years, this residence has also welcomed notable guests, including Sir Laurence Olivier, Dean Martin, Ava Gardner, and Marlon Brando, among numerous others. Offered fully furnished for a 12-month lease. Available August 1, with flexibility for the right tenant. Imagine immersing yourself within these walls where Hollywood legends once lived and entertained.
