The Storybook Castle Los Angeles , California

Property Description

Steeped in Hollywood history, this whimsical home is truly one of a kind. The castle was originally built in the 1930s and sits almost at the top of Wonderland Avenue – a very apt location for such a dreamy house – in Laurel Canyon. It has been lovingly restored and is overflowing with traditional charm and luxury details. Just imagine sipping your coffee in a turret, wandering among the flowering bougainvillea, and sleeping under a domed ceiling. There's also an impressive swimming pool offering respite from the Californian sun, a glamorous marble steam shower to relax under, and a fire pit where you can gather after dark. If you fancy living as a Disney prince or princess for a few days, you won't find a better kingdom than this one.

Home truths:
* There are some steps to the house and in between rooms, so it might not suit those with limited mobility

* There aren't curtains or blinds on some windows in the master bedroom, so some light will come in each morning

* A steep and winding road takes you up to the house – you'll probably want a car for ease of access
