An Old Hollywood haunt by Wallace Neff
This Spanish estate, built in 1926, has the Saltillo tile, artful risers and decorative wrought iron characteristic of the California style developed by architect to the stars Wallace Neff. Facing the Jack L. Warner estate on Angelo Drive, the gated residence was once occupied by film director and choreographer Busby Berkeley and his then-wife, character actress Esther Muir.
