4961 Cromwell Ave

Originally designed by architect Marshall P. Wilkinson in 1926, this historic Hollywood estate has been meticulously and lovingly restored and augmented in a recently-completed, multi-year project for the current owner by Charlap Human & Herrero. The home features a three bedroom main house, with two and a half baths, a library, three fireplaces (including one in the kitchen), and a gourmet kitchen with breakfast nook. A dramatic glass-enclosed dining room is a new addition to the home that completes the stunning public areas. An expansive basement below the main house offers a second laundry room, storage and mechanical. The detached Tudor-styled pub (which functioned as a well-known, speakeasy during Prohibition) has an enormous fireplace and built-in window seating. The unique focus of the pub is the wooden bar upon which early Hollywood stars and industry moguls carved their names – a true time capsule. Above the pub is an airy guest house that holds a light-filled bedroom, a kitchenette, and a full bath. Outdoor features of this walled and gated property include a newly-built private pool and lounge area, quaint paths through the stunning English garden, a built-in outdoor barbecue with an al fresco dining area, and an enormous flat grassy yard to lounge, play and entertain. Located north of Los Feliz Boulevard and west of Vermont Avenue, this one-of-a-kind home’s thoughtful and respectful restoration has maintained the original 1920’s charm and honors its deep historical roots. The stage is set for new owners to own a true Hollywood treasure.
