Frank Sinatra's Former Villa Dorada
Iconic Villa Dorada hits the market for the first time since 1972, 95 years of Hollywood history packed into a quiet Outpost Estates cul-de-sac. Bela Lugosi lived here when he was still Dracula, followed by Oscar-winning songwriter Jimmy Van Heusen, who shared the 1929 Spanish Revival estate with Frank Sinatra. The current owners preserved everything that matters: original magnesite floors, a rare wood-paneled elevator, hand-carved doors, period lighting, and Art Deco brass doorknobs that belonged to the actual Golden Age. The 7,400-square-foot property spans three levels with four en-suite bedrooms, staff quarters, and terraces framing views from the Hollywood Sign to the Pacific. The neighborhood is zoned to keep tour buses out, which is the kind of detail that matters when your house has this much backstory.
