I love it and my criteris for love it is can I move right in and yes to this one. While not the opulance that many associate with old Hollywood glam I think she did a great job of combining some great pieces and making her space comfortable.  Thanks again @Oznell for showing us this gem.

Thanks, kind @Lucky Charm!

@mspatmac  and @GingerPeach,  I so agree with both your takes on this place.  I feel it's not meant to have the grandeur of classic or "pure" Hollywood Regency--  that would be really hard to do on a budget.  But it has, I guess, a spirit and more than a whisper of that art deco Hollywood fantasy feeling, within the realities of her particular circumstances...

Yeah, I love those buildings too, @GingerPeach..  I can think of two movies off hand that had them, I think.  They're so atmospheric!  One was Hitchcock's "Family Plot",  in which Barbara Harris brilliantly played a slightly seedy (but good hearted) fortune teller, and she lived in one.   And there was at least one, maybe a couple, seen in "Chinatown"...

She has a great eye, and I do like the way she has personalized everything in her home.  For me, though, that shag rug (bad enough as it is, but especially as a repository for hair from multiple cats) would have to go. Thanks as always, @Oznell , for the photos and commentary!

Of the same mind, discerning @vsm --  those were my thoughts exactly about that rug!

Like the living room with the pistachio walls and white furniture...other areas are way too glitzy for my taste.  And those grommet curtains look like plastic shower curtains.

And actually the kitchen could use an upgrade.  The exterior and gardens are beautiful.

Love the exterior view & the architecture!

I don’t like the decorating style or colors. Too much white in some rooms, and I am not a fan of pastel pink either.

I luv it.  The front door area is really unique with the archway and those windows and that great front door with the windows in it.  Beautiful white fireplace in the living area.  I adore a retro kitchen - as long as its clean and everything is in good shape.

Kitty sure looks comfy stretched on that bed comforter.  She says - don't bother me, can't you see I'm trying to cat nap? 

I'm attracted to soft neutrals and the pistachio with the white trim is a nice choice that I never would have thought of.  A very beautiful apt. if you ask me.

That bathroom mirror with the little curved finger pull at the bottom brings back memories.  I bet it has the slot in the back wall for used razor blades.

Love the whole place, the outside is so retro looking, and I just can picture this place back in the day !!!!
