8912 Appian Way
Los Angeles, CA 90046

HOLLYWOOD HILLS - A rare opportunity to live on the crest of Appian Way in storied Laurel Canyon, overlooking the vast expanse of Los Angeles. One of the Canyon's early homes, previously owned by The Doors' drummer, John Densmore (whose band is said to have rehearsed downstairs), the exterior retains much of its original charm which belies the breezy, light filled and renovated interior. Upon passing through the front door, one's breath is taken away by the spectacular south-facing panorama from downtown to the Pacific with this 180 vista. It is impossible to overstate the stunning beauty that expands the home's interior to the glistening city below, the ocean and Catalina beyond. Evening brings a mesmerizing spectacle of shimmering lights. The open entertaining areas flow onto the large wood deck where a grand Eucalyptus creates a canopy over this treehouse-like setting often visited by owls in the evening. By day, marvel at hawks and crows dipping and soaring in front of you. In all directions there are fantastic walks beckoning you. Roll down the hill to the iconic Love Street and Canyon County Store. The other direction delivers you to the infamous Sunset Strip and Plaza for boutiques, restaurants and nightlife - Soho House, Whiskey A Go Go, The Comedy Store and Chateau Marmont are among many of the hip and hot spots. This magical setting of a Hollywood Hills retreat allows a peaceful escape from city life...or quick access to it! Reviewing offers 4:00 Sunday 8/7.
