Old World Studio City
It’s not a castle in the air, but it has the appearance of a castle, high on a hill with views of the mountains and Studio City.
The home was built in 1995 by its current owners. They spent nearly six years working on it. Now that their children are growing up and moving out, the nine-bedroom and 13-bathroom house is too big for the couple.
