About this home
Masterfully restored and steeped in Hollywood history, this extraordinary Art Deco residence by celebrated architect William Kesling exemplifies the pinnacle of Los Angeles' Streamline Moderne architecture. Originally commissioned in 1936 by iconic actor Wallace Beery, the home is revered as a standout of its style, showcasing Kesling's hallmark design elements--sleek horizontal lines, nautical curves, and distinctive green banding.

An enchanting courtyard with an Art Deco tiled fountain and thoughtful greenery welcomes guests upon entry.Inside, visitors are greeted by a dramatic living and dining room featuring soaring ceilings and original clerestory casement windows, framing expansive views of the lush, hedged backyard, newly installed sparkling pool, and flat grass lawn. The sleek lines of the windows harmoniously contrast with the home's elegantly curved Streamline Moderne details. The newly restored dining area, complete with an upholstered banquette and integrated lighting, complements the original brick firepl
