If you are a fan of Hollywood history, you have to check out this house that just hit the market for $2.88 million. Best known as Liberace’s Secret townhouse, the property was actually once owned by MGM Studios and hosted its fair share of legendary actors as they shot their movies. Some of these famous actors who have graced the halls of this extraordinary home include Ava Gardner, Liberace, Frank Sinatra and so many others.
The three-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath house has a prime location on Sunset Strip, yet still boasts unexpected privacy from the hustle and bustle of the city. Built in 1937, the home still pays homage to 1930s architecture and design with some of its original features, like the gorgeous marble fireplace and warm walnut floors.
The property provides owners with an insight into the world of classic Hollywood glamour with its sexy and chic ambiance. When you first enter through the ivy-covered gated courtyard, you are greeted with a calming pond filled with colorful Koi fish and a fountain that echoes the relaxing sound of trickling water throughout the entryway, which perfectly adds to the secluded feel that the house embodies.
As you make your way into the four-story home, you take in the beautiful original architecture, a baby grand piano, a formal dining room and a sleek chef’s kitchen. Additionally, the house includes two gorgeous master suites and guest quarters with their own entry.
The selling point of the estate is truly the private rooftop terrace, home to a luscious garden with 360-degree views of the sparkling city below. The top floor, deemed the largest private rooftop terrace in all of West Hollywood, also features a tented dining room, built-in grill and a projector TV with comfortable seating perfect for movie nights.
The townhouse takes vintage to a new level ensuring you will undoubtedly feel a part of A-list Hollywood regency in this home. For more information about the property, contact listing agents Drew Meyers and JJ Meyers of Westside Estate Agency.
