Property Description

Two separate single-family homes set across three lots totaling nearly one-half acre, this historic Doheny estate surrounded by century-old trees invites you into a world where time slows and every corner whispers a story. The estate embodies a passion for authenticity, artistry, and romance shaped most notably by antique dealer Gephard Durenberger, whose eye for European craftsmanship defined its timeless character and layered soul, and refined by interior designer Eric Guenther, whose stewardship has preserved its architectural integrity. The story begins with the original Spanish Colonial residence, built in 1925 and measuring appx 1,799 sq ft, which was envisioned as the first in a planned enclave of retreat homes by Ned Doheny predating the iconic Doheny House by three years. Intimate in scale yet rich in character, the 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home evokes a rustic European sensibility, enhanced by hand-troweled plaster walls embedded with straw, marbleized painted finishes, and antique windows and doors that allow the home to appear as if it could date from 17251925. Decades later, an additional house was thoughtfully built on the other side of the groundsdesigned with equal reverence for the past, yet intentionally distinct and set apart by its own street access. The two-bedroom, two-bath residence draws from European architectural traditions and features a cruciform layout anchored by a 24-foot-high folly that invites natural light to cascade through antique windows. Period details enrich every corner from a 15th-century entry door and reclaimed 19th-century pine fl
