My true love is still mid-century modern, but lately I have been really into these charming craftsman listings popping up all over. I’m really digging the “nook and cranny” vibe of this one in the Hollywood Hills. This home stands out because it retains all the traditional features of a 1910’s California craftsman, yet has more than enough modern touches (like updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and Caesar stone countertops) to make it move-in ready.

I’m liking this new mid-century listing in the Hollywood Hills. At nearly 3,000 square feet and 5 bedrooms (plus a maid’s room that can be used as an office) you really get a lot of house for this price which is nice to see. The pool is very clearly the centerpiece as you can see it from almost every photo. The “see forever” views stretch from Downtown to Palos Verdes and you also have a view of the Hollywood Reservoir which is a nice bonus. I really like the sliding glass floor to ceiling doors/windows throughout the house which really show off the views. The kitchen is totally updated and there are walk-in closets and a wet bar. Basically all the trimmings you’d expect at this price point.

I really like this new mid-century listing in Laurel Canyon. The design and floorplan is simple but makes great use of the canyon surroundings – and I totally love that red door! Built in 1959 and designed by Otto J. Koruer, this is a spacious home with an open living room complete with a block fireplace centerpiece.
There is a flat yard with patio areas as well as striking views of the mountains.
This is a desirable part of Laurel Canyon (it’s located in the Wonderland School District) so this should attract a lot of attention. I will definitely be checking it out!

$1,595,000
Situated just west of the Hollywood Reservoir near the Knolls section of the Hollywood Hills, this recently renovated new listing recently caught my eye. I love the dark hardwood floors and post and beam ceilings in the bedroom. At around 3/4 of an acre there is plenty of outdoor space as you can see in the photo above. I love how they arranged the yard into different seating areas and it looks like a number of rooms open right out to the backyard.
The master bedroom has two walk-in closets, a hot tub and steam shower, and a sitting area. There’s a three-car garage and room for up to eight cars in the driveway. The drive up to the property is gated and tree-lined for maximum privacy.
This house pretty much everything someone would be looking for in this price range except maybe a pool. Would this house be on your list of homes to see if you were looking for a million dollar home in the Hills?

2527 Hargrave In The Hollywood Hills

2 BR, 3 BA
1,878 square feet
$849,000
Built in 1960 and designed by architect Robert B. Marks, The Backer/DeCarolis House has just hit the market. This mid-century modern home has multiple levels in the hillside and has a hexagonal form that really becomes apparent on the inside.
Dig that sunken living room! There’s also a wet bar, outdoor studio/guest house, pool with a spa and canyon views. Marks was a student of Frank Lloyd Wright and his “organic architecture” influence can be seen throughout the house.
This home just hit the market and is ripe for the taking! I can’t wait to see it in person. What do you think: priced to sell or overpriced?

Raphael Soriano’s Shulman House
The Shulman House
7875 Woodrow Wilson Dr
Los Angeles, CA 90046
3 BR, 3 BA
$2,495,000
Widely considered the greatest architectural photographer of our time, Julius Shulman spent the past 59 years living in this Raphael Soriano masterpiece until his death this past summer. This studio and residence tucked away in a secluded spot in the Hollywood Hills just hit the market this week and local architecture fantatics having been buzzing with the opportunity to check it out in person.
This mid-century is the only unaltered steel frame house by Soriano and has thus been deemed a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural monument. The interior contains extensive wooden built-ins and cabinetry, there are koi ponds surrounding the backyard studio, the living room has a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, and the kitchen has built-in bench seating.
Clearly this is an architectural landmark fit for an architectural icon. Hopefully the new owner will respect history and maintain the architctectural integrity of the home with some tasteful updates.

Los Angeles, CA 90068
3BR, 3BA
$1,295,000
This secluded gated compound in Outpost Estates has come back on the market. It’s single story ranch style with an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and French doors opening up to garden terraces. I’ve had these kinds of ceilings on my mind a lot lately and I may be moving into my own post and beam ceiling apartment soon (fingers crossed!).
There’s a gourmet kitchen with professional appliances, a master bedroom with a slate bath and an artist studio/guest accommodation above the two-car garage. Seriously, what doesn’t this house have? Oh yeah, a pool. Is that a deal-breaker for you at this price?

Check out this amazing two-bedroom estate in the Hollywood Hills dubbed as “the Treehouse”. This legendary home is considered to be an architectural masterpiece and was once part of Ellen DeGeneres’s estate and then later owned by Heath Ledger. Ledger’s estate put the home on the market last year and it sold for $2.5 million. It’s now up for sale again for $3.695 million.
This post-and-beam home was built in 1951 and has over 2,000 square feet of space. The surrounding forest view, dark wood, and beamed ceilings give the house its treehouse feel. It also features a large deck, brick fireplace, outdoor screening room, grill and fire pit. All in all, a pretty amazing property!

Tailwaggers & Tailwashers In Franklin Village
I brought our pup Ebbie to Tailwaggers & Tailwashers in Franklin Village to be groomed today, and it was a great success!
Ebbie’s haircut looks amazing. It seriously took years off the little guy… The groomer even said, “He came in here looking like a old man and is walking out looking like a puppy!”
What more could a dog ask for?
If you’re in L.A., I really recommend them. The staff was super sweet and very good with Ebbie. When I picked him up, he was very happy and relaxed, and looked super cute! Check him out:

Christina Ricci’s Home For Sale In The Oaks

Christina Ricci recently listed her Hollywood Hills home. Taking a peek inside (in the slideshow below) you can see the stylish star has quite the impressive eye for interior design – the house is incredibly classy throughout. It’s tucked away on one of the most desired streets in The Oaks neighborhood of the Hollywood Hills. The 2400 square foot house has a mosaic tiled pool and a lush backyard. Ricci always seemed like someone who would keep a great looking home, and she certainly does not disappoint. I wonder where she’s moving next?
