Property Description

PRIVACY, VIEWS, LOCATION! Hollywood history abounds in this impeccably designed home where in the forties the "bad boy of music", composer George Antheil entertained "the most beautiful woman in the world", Hedy Lamarr. Their separate Hollywood successes are world renowned and together, possibly in this home, they created the frequency hopping technology that has often been cited as the pre-cursor to wifi technology that we have today. This property will take your breath away the minute you set foot on the grounds. You will feel as though you've stepped into a romantic Italian garden as the exterior entry stairway is lined with carefully manicured and professionally designed landscaping. Situated up on its own PRIVATE KNOLL, VIEWS from DTLA to CATALINA can be seen from this gorgeous, gated 1935 villa. Period details throughout the home have been meticulously recreated and restored by its current owners. The main house consists of just under 3800 square feet, 3 bedrooms & 3 1/2 baths. Connected by a gorgeous dining pavillion and courtyard (built in 2016), the 600 sf 1 bed/ 1 bath GUEST HOUSE is perfect for a studio, office, or a place for your guests to stay. The home is an ENTERTAINERS DREAM with easy access to the Sunset Strip, a nice wide street (CUL DE SAC) with PLENTY OF PARKING for guests. Several outdoor eating areas and a substantial YARD can host large numbers of guests while they take a dip in the POOL, hang out in the cabana by a roaring fire and relish the SPECTACULAR UNOBSTRUCTED VIEWS.
