What makes this Hollywood Hills listing different?
Cassidy, whose passion is restoring important historical houses for modern living, calls the property a "100-year-old treasure" with old Hollywood character plus larger closets and generous bathrooms. The formal dining room opens toward the garden. The chef's kitchen pairs sage green and lustrous wood cabinetry with veined marble counters and a row of windows for natural light.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a yellow upholstered bed, mirrored panels, and tree views. Four additional bedroom suites are included, one on the main level. A separate bungalow above the garage adds another bedroom and full bathroom.
How did the renovation reshape the 1927 house?
The renovation reworked the original layout without erasing its soul. A former guest room reachable only from outside became the dining room. A double-height library was split into two levels, placing a family room below the primary suite.
Historic fabric remains throughout: leaded windows, wrought-iron railings, marble-framed doorways, carved ceilings, hand-painted beams, and a mix of terrazzo, terracotta, and narrow-plank oak floors. The living room has a carved ceiling and fireplace. The family room centers on a marble fireplace with olive-green sofas.
Why is the asking price nearly $8 million?
Outside, a partially recessed pool trimmed in rusticated stone sits among clipped hedges, mature trees, and citrus plants. A ramada shades an outdoor seating area with a raised-hearth fireplace overlooking the grounds.
"They aren't making more century-old houses in LA," Cassidy told Robb Report. "So it's my goal to honor, preserve, and rehabilitate the ones we have." He added that designers' own homes are often their best work because they can go deeper into the details. The $8 million ask reflects that careful balance of history, updates, and Hollywood Hills setting after the $3.3 million purchase and roughly two-and-a-half-year restoration.
