About This Home

As of May 2023

1715 Benedict Canyon - *Looking for back-up offers.* The former estate of American Jazz icon, Billie Holiday, sits a 1926 traditional Spanish charmer on a sprawling 9,000 sq ft lot with a two-story guest house. As you enter this private residence, you are welcomed by a romantic European-style courtyard with vintage lighting and fireplace. The living room features three large arched windows, domed ceiling with an iron chandelier and exposed beams over a wood burning fireplace. Adjacent is a spacious dining room with French doors leading to an intimate patio. Kitchen includes an island, stainless steel appliances, and breakfast nook perfect for your morning coffee. Opening up to a covered outdoor dining area equipped with ceiling heaters, the downstairs guest room is located adjacent to a guest bathroom featuring a separate shower and a striking Moroccan archway over a luxurious soaking tub. On the second floor of the main residence you will find a guest room and gorgeous primary bedroom featuring French doors leading to a balcony with one-of-a-kind vintage tiles from Marseille. The new custom walk-in closet is accented by 24-carat gold-plated light fixtures from the original Waldorf Astoria in NY and the primary bathroom was remodeled with custom Italian floor tiles + French shower tiles from 1880. The detached two-story guest house includes a downstairs living area ideal for a music studio, gym, office, or screening room. The upstairs has 1 bedroom + 1 bathroom, full kitchen, a floor-to-ceiling window, and private patio. The backyard space feels like an enchanting European Villa complete with terraced garden views, including a second outdoor wood burning fireplace and enough space to add a pool. Other amenities include Lutron lighting, hardwood floors, parking for 6+ cars, motorized wood gate, and hand-plastered walls throughout. Minutes away from the Golden Triangle, Sunset Strip, and within the Warner School District boundaries.
