Silent screen star legend Charlie Chaplin had many women and many homes, but only one historic landmark can boast host to The Tramp’s love nest with movie goddess Paulette Goddard.
Charlie Chaplin house has lush landscaping, waterfalls, a reflective pond and an open baroque fireplace in the Spanish style–all a short walking distance from the Sunset Strip.
Great care has been taken to preserve this combination of Spanish and Moroccan motifs, enhanced by Tunisian influences, enjoyed by designers Arthur and Nina Zwebel, who created this fabled private paradise mid-1920’s. Among the many fabulous features are Arabian-style horseshoe arches with verandas overlooking the living room, where a fireplace with ornate designed plaster relief reaches to the vaulted ceilings. Hand-painted wood beams and wrought iron chandeliers rule. Stained glass windows with latticed openings open out onto inviting terraces and mosaic tiled patios.
Bathrooms cater to one-of-a-kind tiles and art deco flooring which also grace the seamlessly-remodeled kitchens, to provide modern conveniences while maintaining the styles associated with Golden Era of Hollywood.
