Property Description
Quintessential Hollywood Hills oasis. Perched on a storybook stretch of Hollywood Boulevard above Chateau Marmont sits this masterpiece by Architect Robert Byrd, meticulously restored by architect Tannys Langdon in 2016 and designed by MRM Studio and Matt Peterson in 2019. Previously owned by actress Lizabeth Scott and frequented by her co-star Elvis Presley, this is the best example of Byrd's signature farmhouse style on one of the only predominantly flat lots in the Hollywood Hills. Set atop a gated driveway, it offers 180-degree vistas stretching from downtown Los Angeles to Catalina Island. As you approach, mature azaleas frame the front lawn and ornamental Chinese Elm, leading to an inviting porch and a charming Dutch door. The living room features a gas fireplace, original built in shelving, and redwood beams and paneling. Perfect for entertaining, the living room seamlessly leads to an expansive backyard with a kidney shaped pool and brick patio, mature fruit trees, and a towering 25 ft ficus hedge that provides absolute privacy. The bespoke chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, soapstone countertops, SubZero, Wolf, and Miele appliances, as well as a separate scullery with thoughtful custom elements like built in cutlery trays, an onion drawer, hidden microwave nook, and utility closet. The formal dining room features sweeping city views while an additional office area and powder room complete the main floor. Upstairs, you'll find an enchanting primary suite featuring vaulted ceilings, panoramic city views, a walk-in closet, and a newly redesigned bathroom with soapstone countertops. A guest bedroom overlooking the verdant backyard, accompanied by its tastefully appointed ensuite bathroom, completes the upper level. Ideally located near the vibrant Sunset Strip, this Byrd-designed residence embodies timeless elegance and offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Hollywood history, a private sanctuary where luxury living meets iconic glamour.
