About This Home

As of February 2016

Rare opportunity to own in Old Las Palmas at this architecturally significant development. #15 is one of the six original Spanish bungalows section of La Siesta Villas. Built in 1935 and designed by Albert Frey, this early history of La Siesta Villas represents one of only two or three of Frey's residential projects done in the Spanish style. This charming, storied retreat boasts vaulted post and beam ceilings, rich finishes, exceptional workmanship, scores of upgrades, and meticulous maintenance. A series of double French doors connects the kitchen and dining area, living room and master bedroom to the large, lush and rustic patio area for maximum enjoyment of those spectacular mountain views. A setting so inspiring that Godfather 1's screenplay was written at #20, while Marilyn, Lucy, Desi and Robert Stack chose to chill here. Steps from Uptown District's chic restaurants, cocktail hangouts, galleries, and vintage stores, this spot is even cooler than being steps to downtown.
