About this home
Welcome to Hollywoodland and this One-of-a Kind Magical Retreat. This "not to be missed" home combines classic, historic charm with all the modern conveniences and a rare opportunity to reside in a spacious enchanted castle with its own turret. A view of the Hollywood sign right out your front door and sweeping views of the city and canyon from a huge balcony right off the living room begin your adventure. An entertainer's paradise offering a perfect flow for indoor / outdoor entertaining. Multiple patios offer endless choices to enjoy time with friends and family. A separate 800 square foot apartment on the bottom level with private entrances offers a perfect opportunity for multi-generational living or an artist's studio. Located in Beachwood Canyon, this site offers mountainside serenity and is only moments away from the city and studios of Burbank and Hollywood. The glamour of Hollywood's heyday is alive and well in this classic residence, which has been pristinely maintained and thoughtfully renovated. Renowned architect W.L. Schmolle achieved a living environment that affords privacy, security, and stunning hillside views from every room. Upon entering the spacious living room, you are greeted by soaring 14-foot vaulted ceilings and solid oak flooring. The space is anchored by a magnificent marble wood-burning fireplace and expansive picture windows with views overlooking Griffith Park, the Hollywood Hills and all the way down to Palos Verdes. Just inside the door is a charming den with built in shelves and stain glass windows making it perfect for a library / media room or an extra bedroom. The redesigned chef's kitchen, outfitted with an Italian Bertazzoni range, commercial-grade appliances and stone counters, will delight any culinary enthusiast. The formal dining room, featuring handcrafted pocket doors, also opens onto the large balcony adding to the flow of any party. The 450-square-foot, four-season outdoor patio is half-covered and half-open-air, featuring its own brick, wood-burning fireplace and panoramic views in every direction. Old-world craftsmanship is evident in every detail, from the hand-milled black walnut finishes to the leaded glass windows. Off the living room and within the turret is an intimate bar with it's own balcony and beautiful views. Behind the bar you can climb the secret stairs to a circular meditation space and a hidden, whimsical bedroom complete with its own shower and vaulted ceiling, The expansive primary bedroom offers views from every window, two large walk-in closets and a Juliet balcony, the redone main bath features dual marble sinks and heated floors. The property provides an unusually large amount of storage throughout including an approx.600-square-foot East Coast-style attic and a wine room with a 170-bottle EuroCave wine fridge. The lower-level guest apartment features a rare, vintage red O'Keefe & Merritt stove and a clawfoot tub in a full bath. Outside the home and shaded by a magnificent 100-year-old oak tree is a terraced personal park with a variety of fruit trees, meandering pathways, 2 more patios, an organic raised-bed vegetable garden, a productive grape vine and grapefruit orchard all lending themselves to a very sustainable lifestyle. The semi fenced area is a private park for your pampered pets. A two car garage and unrestricted street parking add to the rarity of this location. Next door is one of the six historic Beachwood Canyon Staircases leading you on a quick walk to the charming Beachwood Village Square with its shops, grocery market, and the world famous Beachwood Cafe. An opportunity to own a piece of history like this doesn't come around every day. The lot next door is 2890 Belden Dr. See Photos at MLS# 26670865.
