Welcome to Casa Loma, an extraordinary Mediterranean retreat nestled in the historic Whitley Heights neighborhood of Hollywood Hills. This distinctive residence showcases old Hollywood charm adorned with an exquisite architectural tower, offering a two-bedroom main home alongside a separate one-bedroom guest apartment perfect for entertaining, hosting guests, or offering the mother-in-law her own living quarters. Built in 1920, the thoughtfully designed interior reveals a grand living room, a dedicated dining alcove and a sitting area, all adorned with the original and expansive windows that frame sweeping views of the city below. A generously sized media room is conveniently located between the living room and kitchen and offers flexibility as a third bedroom or creative space. The kitchen features original period woodwork and cabinetry and opens into a charming inglenook breakfast area with built-in banquette seating. As you venture upstairs, you'll pass a beautiful original stained glass window, arriving at two generously sized bedrooms and a period-tiled bathroom. Not to be missed is 'The Tower,' beautifully framed by carefully curated woodwork and currently serving as a meditation space. The upper deck is approximately 500 square feet of versatile entertainment space showcasing views across Los Angeles all the way to the ocean, providing epic sunsets or full moon watching above city lights. Secluded and inviting, the multi-level yard is perfect for everything from gardening and lounging to barbecuing or enjoying a glass of wine by the patio fireplace. Situated in one of L.A.'s most historic and centrally located neighborhoods, home to one of the city's oldest preservation overlay zones, Casa Loma is a rare gem where history, creativity, and convenience converge. Located just moments from iconic landmarks like the Hollywood Bowl, Pantages Theatre, TCL Chinese Theatre, and the Vine Street Farmers Market, Casa Loma offers a peaceful yet connected retreat. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby hiking in Lake Hollywood, Runyon Canyon, and Griffith Park. Truly, a rarity for the discerning home seeker - a 1920s Mediterranean gem straight out of Old Hollywood, brimming with original character and timeless details, yet offering the perfect canvas for personalized updates.
