Property Description
Step into the secluded world of "Casa Wobada," a historic Spanish Colonial Revival residence with a rich legacy of notable residents that has been impeccably restored and upgraded throughout. Christened by Walt Disney himself, the name translates to "a place of tranquility and rest," reflecting the serene ambiance and privacy of this remarkable compound that is sited on 4 street to street lots, totaling 27,228 square feet. Among its prestigious residents was Joseph Schenk, the visionary founder and Chairman of 20th Century Fox, whose influence launched the iconic career of Marilyn Monroe, whose suite was perched atop the spiral staircase overlooking her pool that Schenk installed. Crafted by master architects Brewster and Benedict, the residence was initially envisioned for Hal Forrest, a comic strip artist celebrated for his creation, Tailspin Tommy. Enjoy the refined elegance of this private sanctuary, surrounded by meticulously landscaped grounds and awe-inspiring mountain views. Entertaining for a few or for several hundred is easily accomplished with the versatility of the floorplan that easily flows to the outdoor loggias, pool, spa and gardens. Guests will enjoy the private entrance of the 2-bedroom casita providing a haven of relaxation amidst the breathtaking surroundings. This offering presents an incomparable opportunity to live and entertain for all who have the pleasure of spending time here, creating lasting memories in a truly remarkable setting.
