Property Description

The Killian House | Arthur S. Barnes, 1923. Set high above the street in the historic enclave of Whitley Heights, this meticulously restored Spanish Revival home perfectly captures a sense of romance and classic Hollywood glamour. As the legend goes, silent screen star Rudolph Valentino commissioned the home for his mistress, stage and film actress Pola Negri. Surrounded by verdant gardens and enchanting pathways, the storied property has been thoughtfully updated by its current owners in collaboration with Shapiro Joyal Studio and landscape architecture firm Terremoto. Inspired by Scandinavian and Japanese design, the two-story 2BD/2BA residence and 1BD/1BA guesthouse strike the perfect balance between modern living and 1920's Spanish architecture. Original hardwood floors, detailed ironwork, casement windows, and Batchelder tilework have been carefully restored throughout. As you enter the home, a spacious living room awaits you, graced with arched windows, a wood-burning fireplace, and French doors that open to the lush outdoor space. The gourmet chef's kitchen is ideal for hosting, featuring custom walnut cabinetry, black quartz countertops, Wolf appliances, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. The primary bedroom, with a 2nd wood-burning fireplace, offers a calm retreat with a spa-like ensuite bathroom, custom cabinetry, and a large picture window that frames the surrounding greenery. The main floor also includes a dining room overlooking treetops, a second bedroom with garden access, and a full guest bathroom. Upstairs, the office/viewing tower opens to an adjoining deck, both offering views of the surrounding hills and Hollywood Sign. The expertly landscaped yard is anchored by a pergola/dining area with a handcrafted Moroccan-tile floor and an expansive deck overlooking the hills of Whitley Heights, accessed via a series of boardwalks and thick basalt stepping stones. The park-like gardens showcase original plantings, such as tree aloes and cedars, nestled among region-appropriate greenery, verdant tree ferns, citrus, cypress, and philodendron. A brick path and stairs with original wrought iron wind elegantly down to the 1930 Spanish 1BD/1BA guest house. Designed by architect Nathan L. Coleman, the charming casita features a living room with a wood-burning fireplace, dining area, and kitchen - with access to two private courtyards. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb. Additional property amenities include a 2-car garage with 2 off-street parking spaces, a front security gate, and an alarm system with cameras. With its masterful blend of original details and modern design updates, 6823 Iris Circle is a uniquely alluring Hollywood Hills retreat worthy of a standing ovation.
