Welcome to Casa Loma, an extraordinary Mediterranean retreat nestled in the historic Whitley Heights neighborhood of Hollywood Hills. This distinctive residence showcases old Hollywood charm adorned with an exquisite architectural tower, offering a two-bedroom main home alongside a separate one-bedroom guest apartment perfect for entertaining, hosting guests, or offering the mother-in-law her own living quarters. Built in 1920, the thoughtfully designed interior reveals a grand living room, a dedicated dining alcove and a sitting area, all adorned with the original and expansive windows that frame sweeping views of the city below. A generously sized media room is conveniently located between the living room and kitchen and offers flexibility as a third bedroom or creative space. The kitchen features original period woodwork and cabinetry and opens into a charming inglenook breakfast area with built-in banquette seating.
