The sprawling compound of Actor Helen Mirren and Director Taylor Hackford has been relisted for $16,995,000 by Joyce Rey and Stephen Apelian, Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialists affiliated with the Beverly Hills office of Coldwell Banker Realty. Located at 2003 La Brea Terrace in Los Angeles, the approximately 10,199-square-foot residence has eight bedrooms, five of which are in the main house and three in the guest cottage, and 11 bathrooms. Separate from the primary residence, there is a three-bedroom guesthouse and five-car garage with an office and loft-style apartment above.
“This is an unparalleled opportunity to obtain a 6.5-acre property in an amazing close-in Hollywood Hills location like no other, affording the ultimate in privacy and convenience,” said Rey. “No other property offers a beautiful setting, sophisticated styling, exceptional views, and supreme privacy, all in the heart of Hollywood.”
Since its construction in 1911, the property has had only four owners. The first was Dustin Farnum, often known as Hollywood's first movie star, who starred in Cecil B. DeMille's "Squaw Man," which was the first feature film shot in Hollywood. Next was journalist, columnist, and film producer Mark Hellinger, whose short story gave rise to "The Roaring Twenties," starring Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney. After Farnum came Gail Patrick who had a very successful acting career and was executive producer of the “Perry Mason” series. Patrick was one of the first and most successful female producers in Hollywood. The fourth and current owners, Director Taylor Hackford and Actor Helen Mirren complete the illustrious line of Hollywood dignitaries who have owned this fabulous residence. On approximately 6.5 acres, the spacious and elegant main residence has a swimming pool and wide terrace for lounging, dining and entertaining.
“Exuding ‘Old Hollywood’ glamour, this property has only been owned by influential Hollywood figures since it was built,” said Apelian. “Backed up to lush and natural parkland, this one-of-a-kind place is secure behind two gates and up a scenic 1/8-of-a-mile long driveway. In addition to location, views and amenities, the best features are the seclusion, security and privacy.”
