DESCRIPTION

Storybook French Normandy compound in prime Franklin Canyon. "Hollywood '20's" home dates from historic Doheny Ranch days. Enter through massive, wood gates into a gravel courtyard anchored by a turreted entry and a majestic Italian Stone Pine.

The main house features a grand scale living room w/ soaring ceilings & fireplace, a large dining room, a spacious/sun-drenched country cook's kitchen with copper counters, a sun room/den/media room, and 2 bedrooms on the main level. An open 2-story staircase leads to the 2nd floor master suite added as a contemporized California architectural feature in 2000 by architect Padraic Cassidy.

WHAT MAKES THIS A BUNGALUX

Who needs a big estate when you can have a little one?

• This one dates back to the original Doheny Ranch days in one of our favorite little areas of Los Angeles called Franklin Canyon. Minutes from the Beverly Hills Hotel but still in nature. It's so beautiful, elegant, and understated chic.
