Don't miss this private, rare urban oasis in the heart of Hollywood! A fabulous example of Italianate architecture that was built in 1922 by the family of President William Howard Taft, this home's Tuscan exterior is beautifully complimented by the classic Craftsman interior and is surrounded by expansive grounds & high walls, creating a stunning & secluded retreat in Franklin Village. The main house has been recently updated and features 4 bedrooms and 3 baths. You'll find sumptuous mahogany woodwork throughout, the original wood floors, a Batchelder hearth, formal dining room w/ pocket doors, a solarium, & a remodeled gourmet kitchen w/ all Big Chill appliances. In addition to the generous bedrooms & bathrooms, the home offers a laundry room, office space, & a wine cellar/bonus room. Both the grand front patio & lush backyard were designed w/ tranquil living in mind. The pool, spa, & fire pit are as equally conducive to entertaining as they are to quiet evenings at home. Beyond the main house, situated at the end of the long private driveway, is a one bedroom/one bath fully permitted ADU with a lovely kitchen and washer/dryer in unit that has been recently remodeled and is perfect for guests or relatives. This is a truly unique property, come see it for yourself!
