    Hey Christophe ! I would like to very humbly tell you that the ceiling in the Grand Salon is more like 9-10 feet not 13 or 14. The paneling in the Den is Walnut. Paul Williams was one of the first architects to make lower ceilings popular. He usually kept spaces like the bedrooms and dining room, Den, etc. lower because he felt it was more intimate. I would say most of the downstairs is 9. Love this wonderful place and have every book and detail on Paul Williams I can find ! His works are masterpieces. I pray the new owners will keep all the details and chandeliers which really make the room. Thank you for showing it to us!

    Christophe, I am glad that this listing went to you. Your appreciation for the special features, details, and background brings this "historic" home to life.
    Others could have shown us around and supplied us with the basics. You, however, add an extra intangible component. You paint such imagery due to your own 'feelings' about the place... I am sure the right person will see what you highlighted and purchase this prize. Thanks for this superb tour.

    This is a Beautiful home that should be a National Landmark because it was design by one of the few Black Architects that designed homes in Hollywood at that time. He would often remark that he designed beautiful homes on streets he could not live on. The bylaws would not allow homes to be sold to Blacks in Segregated Hollywood.

    This is a masterpiece and should not be modified. Anyone with an eye for beauty should be sympathetic to its old Hollywood charm and show mercy by the method of restoration.

    I love this, it's more a museum than a home. I appreciate the small details such as alcoves for statues. The home obviously was designed in an era when entertaining had a high priority, which also called for having live-in staff like a maid and so forth. That more or less has gone out of style. That is the main reason I would renovate it, to update the functionality rather than to "improve" it. I will note that once you start changing things, though, you destroy the symmetry planned out with exquisite detail by Paul Williams. One tiny example: you mention putting columns in the pavilion. Yes, I see that. However, the loggia there is a bookend to the one across the pool on the veranda. Once you start fiddling around with the original concept, you need real skill to not spoil the concept. Anyway, very interesting tour, a real exploration of how people lived back in the day.

    I’m stunned to see what this house looked like only two years ago. I went in it this morning and it’s in absolute terrible shape. The pool and backyard is a disaster. It’s so tragic to see how run down and falling apart it is. There was an estate sale, I’m assuming it will be for sale again. I’m hoping someone restores it. This video is great.

    • @Christophechoo
      @Christophechoo  4 года назад

    I know I have commented on this video in the past but each time I watch again I see more new features! I would love to have been able to buy this home but I guess I'm the odd person that would keep it exactly as it was...I soo love the master suite and the maze of dressing areas and his and her's bathrooms..soo classy! I believe Christophe said this was torn down for new build..such a shame..should be a crime..heck as protective as CA is on everything else under God's green earth including drinking straws they should protect these few left master pieces of art done by Mr Williams...

    • @Christophechoo

      This was not torn down, it was sold twice now in a year and the new owner plans to renovate. The house I sold across the street for under $20 million and the house next door as well for $17.5 was torn down. Thank gosh not this one.

    • @Christophechoo
      @Christophechoo  6 лет назад +24

      There are no laws against tearing it down and there is no neighborhood Historic Preservations Overlay Zone and this is not a historical landmark so someone could feasibly. It would be a tragedy and a shame to do so. I will say if someone put a demo permit, they may encounter the LA Conservancy Group stopping them as that has happened before.

      I am glad there is a group in Los Angeles that strives to protect historic archetecture and tries to preserve "old Hollywood". It is important to protect historic properties even if it is not on the register as such. Thanks Christoph for your great tours, so interesting and so much fun!!!

      Thank God, because it would be a shame, very shameful. Many of us Ladies DreAM of having a Golden era, Old Hollywood home and especially the bathrooms and closet/dressing room. I would sit on the staircase and just daydream about the people who have come thru their through the many years and the things they went through on a daily basis and major world events. So many since 1937...(sigh) The only thing I would change is the black in the kitchen to a pretty pink. Other than that I wouldn't change one single, solitary thing. PS. LOVE LOVE LOVE your video's Mr. Choo!!!
