Historic Pacific Palisades Home for Sale

Famous Celebrity Party Home from
Hollywood's Golden Age of the 1920's - 1940's


 


A rare opportunity to purchase a spectacular home once owned by one of the most famous movie studios in Hollywood.

Legend has it that this home was lived in by, and had as guests, some of the best-known celebrities of Hollywood's Golden Age of the 1920's - 1940's. Legendary stars such as Greta Garbo, Stan Laurel (of Laurel and Hardy fame), Jean Harlow, Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, Cary Grant, Lionel and Ethel Barrymore, W.C. Fields, William Randolph Hearst, the great Will Rogers, and many, many others.

This historic home, built in 1924, was a well-known party venue that entertained Hollywood's rich and famous for decades. A prior resident recalled that they would "dance until dawn, and then go outside to watch the sun come up."

You will enjoy the prestigious Amalfi Drive address of the highly exclusive and sought-after Riviera section of the fabled Pacific Palisades. The Palisades are along the Pacific Coast Highway between Santa Monica and Malibu, and feature some of the most famous and star-studded beaches in the world.

This property also features one of the most spectacular views available from the Rustic Canyon area of the Pacific Palisades. Even your new friends and neighbors down the street, in a neighborhood that is home to many of the best-known celebrities in the entertainment industry, will be impressed!

The sweeping vista from the house is in excess of a full 180-degree view, and encompasses lush forests and rugged canyons below, State Park land and the Santa Monica Mountains off to the right, and even includes views of the Pacific Ocean to the left.

Because the house itself is not visible from Amalfi Drive, it also offers seclusion and security, making it an ideal home for celebrities and others who wish to retain their privacy. Visitors must enter through a separate gated guard house that can easily be wired for remote camera monitoring, for the ultimate in privacy and security.

Because this is an historic property built in the grand style of old Hollywood, it has much of its original detail intact.

This is the first time that this historic Hollywood landmark has been offered for sale in almost 50 years!

Don't miss this rarely-available opportunity to own a part of entertainment industry history, and to enjoy living in one of the most delightful and desirable areas anywhere in the world.
