Los Angeles is one of the world’s most diverse and culturally important cities. Especially in real estate, a culture often focused on building something special that would stand out in the city has created a unique and glamorous architectural scene. One of LA’s most delightful architectural styles is the Storybook Home, a whimsical homage to Medieval European architecture featuring playful elements such as turrets, crooked roofs, bridges over brooks, uneven doors and windows, and an overall fairytale cottage aesthetic. A spectacular example of the genre has hit the market for $3.3 million.
Located in the Pacific Palisades, the 1930 home combines the classic storybook style with elements of Spanish, Art Deco, and Old World farmhouse styles. The current owners have spent the last 60 years sourcing one-of-a-kind materials from all over the globe to create this truly special home.
