Property is move-in ready.
This 1924 Moorish estate is in exceptional move-in condition, balancing historic preservation with modern functionality. While the home retains its original 1920s architectural character and millwork, it features well-maintained hardwood floors, updated high-end appliances (such as the Miele laundry stack), and clean, updated bathrooms with period-appropriate finishes. The property shows high pride of ownership with minimal wear, though it does not qualify as 'excellent' due to its age and the preservation of original cabinetry rather than a full contemporary renovation.
This authentic 1924 Moorish castle estate offers rare architectural character and Old Hollywood romance that is nearly impossible to replicate in modern builds.
Perched in Hollywood Heights, the property features sweeping panoramic city and hill views from multiple vantage points, including a unique 'birds' eye' viewing perch.
The interior boasts meticulously preserved original details, including a wood-paneled dining room crafted from imported African hardwood and authentic 1920s millwork.
With only a one-car garage and limited driveway space, parking may be challenging for residents with multiple vehicles or when hosting guests in this hillside neighborhood.
As a century-old estate with many original features, the property may require significant investment to update systems or infrastructure to meet contemporary efficiency standards.
The current configuration of bathrooms for a multi-level estate at this price point may be perceived as insufficient for modern luxury buyers or larger households.
Iconic 1924 Moorish Castle Estate in Hollywood Heights A Rare Architectural Treasure With Panoramic Views Step into one of Hollywood Heights’ most iconic residences — an authentic 1924 Moorish castle estate that embodies the romance, artistry, and history of Old Hollywood. Perched above the city with sweeping, panoramic views, this extraordinary home offers a level of character and craftsmanship that is nearly impossible to find today. Rich with original details, the home features hardwood floors throughout and a breathtaking wood-paneled dining room crafted from imported African hardwood. The original cabinetry and millwork remain beautifully preserved, offering timeless elegance and unmatched authenticity. This enchanting property includes 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, plus a versatile bonus area ideal for an office, workshop, studio, or creative space. The upper level hosts two spacious bedrooms with walk-in closets and a generous bathroom. The main living level is anchored by a light-filled living room with city views and the showpiece paneled dining room. On the entry level, a bedroom with an adjoining sitting room and bathroom creates a perfect guest suite or private retreat. The outdoor spaces are equally magical. A birds' eye viewing perch, two landscaped patios, a peaceful lower terrace, and a stunning waterfall — originally constructed with the home — create a serene environment for entertaining or unwinding. The private rear garden feels like a hidden sanctuary in the heart of the city. This estate was built for a New York Socialite who then sold the home to the legendary and beloved character actor Morgan Woodward who cherished the home for more than 50 years. Morgan Woodward's career spanned nearly 400 film and television roles, including Cool Hand Luke, Bonanza, and Star Trek to name a few! His long stewardship speaks to the home’s soul, charm, and enduring appeal. Additional features include ample storage, a one-car garage, and extra space for parking on driveway. The location is exceptional — just blocks from the Hollywood Bowl and the iconic High Tower, offering effortless access to the area’s best dining, nightlife, and cultural landmarks.
