What's around 1705 Wellington Rd

About this property

Tucked within the historic enclave of Lafayette Square on an elegant corner lot, this landmark 1923 Mediterranean Revival, often regarded as the Crown Jewel of the neighborhood, offers rare architectural pedigree and design provenance. Set on an expansive 13,400 square foot lot with coveted Mills Act status, the home has been meticulously restored and enhanced as the personal residence of an internationally recognized designer. Enter an impressive rotunda, reminiscent of a museum gallery, with painted ceilings, rich mahogany paneling, and an original wrought iron spiral staircase, setting the tone for interiors filled with character and craftsmanship. Gracious formal rooms feature Palladian windows, exquisite wedding-cake plaster ceilings, and Italian designer light fixtures. The expansive living room is anchored by an oversized fireplace, with French doors opening to the gardens beyond. Reimagined by Studio Art Luna, the backyard unfolds as a lush private retreat with a sparkling pool, built-in fire pit seating, pergola-covered dining, and mature landscaping beneath a canopy of Peruvian pepper trees. Upstairs, the tranquil primary suite enjoys verdant treetop views, joined by two additional bedrooms and a sizable enclosed porch ideal for yoga, massage, or office use, while a fourth bedroom is located on the main level. Rich with character and history, the residence also appeared in the 1927 Laurel and Hardy film Love 'Em and Weep, adding a rare cinematic pedigree to its architectural significance. Ideally positioned near the Westside, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Larchmont Village, and DTLA, this is a truly special offering full of surprise and delight in one of Los Angeles' most storied neighborhoods.
