Originally owned by film legend Dorothy Dandridge, this home holds a special place in Hollywood history. A beautifully renovated 1920s Mediterranean in Sunset Plaza, offering sweeping city views, over 4,300 SF of living space plus additional flexible space. Filled with character and thoughtfully updated over the years, the home blends its original Mediterranean charm with sophisticated, modern living. Recent improvements include a newly completed primary bathroom and new flooring, along with an updated kitchen, spacious gym, and lower-level guest area with an additional bedroom. Multiple entertaining terraces and a covered built-in BBQ area create effortless indoor-outdoor living and take full advantage of the hillside setting and views. Approved plans and permits are in place for a pool designed to utilize the additional hillside land and create an exceptional private retreat.
