WEST HOLLYWOOD CARL MASTON ARCHITECTURAL DREAM HOME

West Hollywood Carl Maston Architectural Dream Home

1657 MARMONT AVENUE, WEST HOLLYWOOD | $6,000,000 | 3 BD | 3 BA

We had a client eyeing this Carl Maston architectural home back in the day. But, alas, it went to Ryan Murphy, then eventually Dakota Johnson. It’s now back on the market. Located in the Hollywood Hills just off the Sunset Strip, this stunning 1947 mid century home was first painstakingly restored by Murphy and it appears Johnson furthered a renovation. The original warm wood is ever-present throughout the home. And, the setting is divine.
