Enchanting 1927 French Cottage on a Double Lot in Lake Hollywood Knolls

Tucked along one of the jacaranda-lined streets of the iconic Lake Hollywood Knolls, this enchanting 1927 French Cottage offers a rare combination of historic character, privacy & an exceptionally peaceful setting just minutes from the energy of central Hollywood. Set on a double lot in a neighborhood reminiscent of a Mediterranean hilltop village, this is a home to savor and a rare opportunity to become only its fourth owner in nearly 100 years.

Bathed in natural light, the step-down dramatic living room features vaulted, beamed ceilings & exposures on three sides, with French doors opening directly to both the front and rear gardens. The charming dining room flows naturally to the kitchen and breakfast area, while an adjacent light-filled family room or office features built-in bookshelves and direct access to the back patio.

Throughout the home, timeless architectural character is expressed in original steel casement windows, hardwood and tile floors, built-ins, whimsical hardware and distinctive ironwork. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two bathrooms provide a comfortable private retreat.

Outside, multi-level terraces create inviting spaces for al fresco dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the tranquility of the gardens. A two-car garage with built-ins offers additional flexibility and could also serve as a studio, creative space or home office.

Despite its secluded, village-like atmosphere, this coveted location places the very best of LA remarkably close at hand. Enjoy moments-away access to Lake Hollywood Reservoir, the Hollywood Sign, Wisdom Tree and Cahuenga Peak, with Griffith Park’s trails and the Hollywood Bowl just minutes away. Toluca Lake, Studio City and Universal Studios are equally convenient, as are major entertainment studios including Warner Bros., Disney and Netflix.

First time on the market in 45 years, this distinctive residence is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Hollywood history — an enchanting retreat surrounded by nature, yet remarkably close to the 101 and the heart of LA.
