196 Granville Avenue

Los Angeles, CA 90049

Celebrity compound on 1 acre south of Sunset – private, gated, and expansive. Beyond double gates and twenty-foot hedges, 196 Granville Avenue reveals a rare Brentwood estate with an unmistakable sense of history and presence within the neighborhood. A sweeping semi-circular driveway introduces the Cape Codinspired home, where dappled sunlight filters through mature trees and the facade recalls the elegance of a Hamptons summer home, reimagined for Southern California living. Inside, the chandelier-lit foyer opens to formal living and dining rooms designed for entertaining, complemented by original hardwood floors and light-filled spaces that flow effortlessly between one another. The kitchen, envisioned for daily gathering, showcases a central island, open shelving, and a breakfast banquette overlooking the gardens. Adjacent, the family room captures the home's character and warmth with vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, a stone fireplace, and French doors that open to the backyard. The main-level primary suite includes its own fireplace, dual-entry walk-in closet, and a serene bath with soaking tub, shower, and direct access to the pool. A secondary en-suite completes the first floor, while the upper level offers two additional bedrooms and a shared bath. Above the three-car garage, a private space with its own ensuite and walk-in closet provides endless possibilities for a gym, home office, or maid's quarters. Outdoors, the property unfolds like a hidden resort across a series of terraces and gardens that feel almost otherworldly in their privacy. Stone walkways meander through lawns and vine-draped verandas, leading to a pool and spa framed by mature trees. A lower path descends to a secluded lawn secondary flat yard for a sport court or pavilion. Further along, trails weave through the estate's own park-like terrain, leading to a grotto bar beneath a waterfall and a creek bordered by redwoods. A two-bedroom, two-bath guesthouse completes the estate, offering a full kitchen, living and dining areas, ideal for multi-generational living or an income opportunity, with a private entrance for independence. Held by one of television's most beloved figure for nearly thirty years, 196 Granville Avenue represents a piece of Hollywood history and a once-in-a-generation development opportunity to own one of Brentwood's most private, character-rich compounds south of Sunset.
