A house in Los Feliz, California, that belonged to the renowned actor Danny DeVito has entered the real estate market for $19.8 million dollars. This price makes the home the second most expensive in the area.
This residence It was built in 1924 as a commission by Alanson Inslee Rootfounder of Omaha’s Beacon Press, who bought the nearly one-acre lot for $170,000. According to ‘Mansion Global’, the land once belonged to King Charles III of Spain.
The construction project It was designed by architect Carlton Winslow Sr.known for pioneering the architectural movement of the early 20th century and for designing the Los Angeles Public Library. Landscape architect Paul J. Howard was also included in the project.
Without a doubt, the design of the house by this architect makes it a more than attractive property, perhaps that is why may have been what made DeVito buy it in the 80s.
It is said that since its construction the place has always belonged to important people in Californianot just the actor. Since 2012 he has belonged to the American actress Amy Hathaway and her partner Naveen Jeereddi.
The main house It has an area of 10,403 square feet distributed over three floors with 10 bedrooms, 10 full bathrooms, hallway, living room, main room, bar, wine cellar, dining room, kitchen, laundry room and other amenities.
Although in recent years Renovations have been made to the place to keep it up to date and in good condition, the original design has always been maintained.
Among the main features is a Spanish style fountain that is inlaid with tiles that have been maintained for the last 100 years.
