About this home

Villa Lorelei, a pristine Art Deco sanctuary in the heart of the storied Outpost Estates, blends the sculptural elegance of Streamline Modern architecture with the warmth and ease of true California living. This 5 bedroom 5 bathroom home is set behind lush landscaping and a private courtyard. Bathed in natural light and framed by the tranquil greenery that defines this historic enclave, this property feels both quietly serene and refined. Inside, a sun-filled living room anchored by a classic period fireplace sets an inviting, sophisticated, and timeless tone. The main house flows with an easy dialogue between comfort and entertaining: the chef's kitchen opens to a formal dining room and an airy solarium with French doors extending directly to the pool terrace. Architectural details recall the neighborhood's Old Hollywood heritage, with modern upgrades including an integrated sound system and a whole-house Oxygen Ozone filtration system. The primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, complete with a spa-like bath and calming views of the gardens and pool. Outside, a gas fireplace, built-in refrigerator, and multiple intimate dining and lounge areas create a true extension of the home perfect for morning coffee, golden-hour gatherings, or quiet evenings under the stars. The separate Piet Mondrian inspired studio guest suite offers a bathroom and kitchenette ideal for guests, creative pursuits, or a private office removed from the main residence. Additional amenities include three independent temperature zones, two-car garage, site-specific sculptures, and proximity to the Sunset Strip and Runyon Canyon, along with the architectural charm that defines this iconic neighborhood. Villa Lorelei is a rare opportunity: a preserved architectural gem that marries vintage character with modern comfort, capturing the romance, privacy, and timeless appeal that make Outpost Estates one of the most coveted pockets of the Hollywood Hills.
