Welcome to the Patio Del Moro, a whimsical & classic 1920's Andalucian style 8 unit courtyard building located in the heart of West Hollywood. A registered Historic Landmark with true Hollywood History.
The Patio Del Moro, built in 1925, is a two-story courtyard complex located in the North Harper Avenue Historic District.
Architecturally, the building is of the Spanish Colonial Revival style with extensive Moorish detailing. The building's Islamic character is manifested in a number of features. These include the horseshoe-arched entrance and tunnel leading to the courtyard, a copper-domed Tunisian tower, tiled fountains in the public and private patios, and horseshoe and pointed-arch doorways and windows within each unit. Despite the distinctive character of these elements, the overriding architectural character of the building is the Spanish Colonial Revival of the twenties.
Simple, geometric volumes are sheathed with stucco that has been stained with color washes. Gabled and shed roofs are covered with terracotta tile. Ornamental ironwork and glazed tile are extensively used throughout the building and courtyard.
The courtyard patio is comprised of a two-story Spanish baroque open fireplace and a blind arch framing a built in bench on the west wall. On the east side of the patio is a wall-mounted tile and bas-relief fountain which flows into a tile reflecting pool.
Very little of the exterior of the Patio Del Moro has been altered since it was constructed. Located on the north side of Fountain Avenue, the U-Plan building occupies most of the lot. The U-configuration opens towards the east, provide space for a wonderful deep courtyard. Several units have private patios. The building is composed of simple geometric volumes. A parking garage is incorporated at the ground level of the street facade.
Numerous Hollywood stars such as Charlie Chaplin, Paulette Goddard, Troy Donahue, Joan Fontaine and Suzanne Pleshette have made the Patio Del Moro their home over the years. The Patio Del Moro was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

Today, I'm at the historic Patio Del Moro in the heart of West Hollywood. An amazing architecture building designed in 1926 by Arthur and Nina zwebell, one of the true forerunners of court style buildings here in the Los Angeles era in the 1920's.
This building has truly had historic significance, unique architectural design, from the moorish details, the spanish revival architecture, the amazing outdoor fireplace, and all of the extensive details and unique features throughout the building. A wonderful fountain which you'll see shortly, and I especially love the copper dome Tunisian tower above.
So take a quick look at this beautiful courtyard with me, and then come on a tour of the beauty of the interior units. This is probably my favorite spot of the Patu Del Moro. This wonderful inner courtyard, which is so serene and whimsical and fun. And what a great place to come enjoy a light afternoon out here in the beautiful tropical gardens enjoying the picturesque details of all the 1920's original tile, the wonderful sounds of the fountain, and the beautiful architecture surrounding you.
what a great place to hang out and just relax after a long day. Well here inside the amazing Casa Del Sueno [xx] apartment here at the Patu Del Moro. An incredibly unique unit with architectural details and beauty beyond any other building I've seen here in Los Angeles. Again, built in the 1920s, when you look at this unit, the amazing soaring ceilings with hand-painted beams, the beautiful plaster relief peacock details on this two-story fireplace, original handcrafted tiles, the oakwood floors, three amazing terraces as well as a beautiful Moroccan sun-room.
A truly gracious apartment, that was also the owners unit for several of the owners in the past history of this building. It's a townhouse unit with three bedrooms, two baths, gorgeous kitchen, gorgeous dining room, and amazing and wonderful unique details for you to enjoy. While we're inside the remarkable and very special Charlie Chaplin unit here.
I love old Spanish style villas with the mosaic and Spanish tiles. This is my idea retirement home!

Wonderful! Thank you so much! I adore the Chaplin/Goddard pair
Am glad no one "updated" or "remodeled" the place. Beautiful.
It has been remodeled and updated but the owner did everything to perfection in the original style and look.
@@Christophechoo I love it when people keep the originality. I referred to persons who carpet over hardwoods, remove original windows, fireplace mantles, doors, lighting figures, etc. Am sure electrical and such had to be have been updated.
Amazing place it is beautiful. Love the what Goddard Charlie Chaplin story

Charlie & Pauline did " Modern Times " they had a Lot Fun with That one.
Last Silent Film. .
Gorgeous and mystical! These homes are beautiful! That hidden door to Charlie's courtyard; would be perfect for a mother-in law's unit or a College student's study area! Love the music and property!
That was a mouth-full of info in a short video Chritophe, great job hosting the tours! Fun stuff!
Thank you.
I used to live in Charlie Chaplin's home in Burlingame,CA. It was #1 Winchester Place and was his home adjacent to his Northern CA studios that were used until sound was the new mainstay...why? Because his studio was next to the railroad tracks!
what a truly stunning and interesting house....stunning. great stories about Paulette Goddard too!!
Completely tranquil and aesthetic. I love the vibe of the garden and architecture style. Thanks for the vid.
Glad you enjoyed it!

They should film a biopic about Goddard and Chaplin here.
That would be cool, if only the walls could talk.
from nor cal hope to move to LA soon ! Keep up with the videos Christophe views views views!
Is it a standard prerequisite that all real estate agents be devoid of personality and charm? So fantastically wooden in their delivery!
Nice vid ...tho would've been great to see the actual copper hidden passage way under Paulines building to Charlies courtyard.

Wow, you so rock… will you sell my home in Idaho?!
The front desperately needs a upgrade/ renovation, the rest is just amazing.
So can we see the copper hidden passage underneath the building?

Has this been sold?
Which "Choo" did did you?
Paulette grew up on Long Island and was a child model and showgirl. She had an early and lucrative 1st marriage that she got done with by the time she was 20 with a huge settlement, then moved out to L.A. with her mother, so the story you told about her as a child doesn't quite
ring true.
Christophe sold my house. He’s great!
Who is this?
This guy is a class higher than the vanity flagg and snob altman!
Thank you so much!
Does the owners unit also have a half bath or just two full baths?
This was a few years ago so frankly I don't recall.
Pronounced Paulette GODD-ard. She's not Jean-Luc Godard.
What a great video and history lesson!
Thank you Chris Austin glad you like it!
You pronounce the Spanish words very well !
Paulette Goddard pronounced "goddard"one word. Not two words god-dard.
And it's pronounced "God ard," not "Go dar."

Beautiful presentation spoiled only by your failure to properly pronounce Paulette Goddard's last name.
I am certainly not perfect, especially with celebrity names.
How does Buddah fit in ?
Buddha's are often used in decor and landscaping to create a zen feeling. I love the Buddha! Please subscribe to my Channel. Click here: ruclips.net/user/christophechoo
Too bad Joan Fontaine and her sister Olivia de Haviland could never become close before they died. But my sister and I haven't gotten along for over a year. So I do understand how this can happen but we haven't pulled the stunts that Joan Fontaine went to humiliate her sister.
Inspired by Algerian 🇩🇿 style, knowing that Chaplin visited Algeria in the first half of 20th century.
Nah it s tunisian
More tare downs....
This is by no means a tear down.
Big fans here!
