Dennis Quaid’s Rustic Los Angeles Sanctuary

24 Apr

It’s true: Dennis Quaid’s gorgeous, rustic Los Angeles home is up for sale.  Watch the video above or read an excerpt from the Architecture Digest Article:

““We just wanted it to feel like you’re in the country,” Dennis Quaid says of the 15-room house in Los Angeles’s Rustic Canyon that he shares with his wife, Kimberly, and their young twins. The property, on which the couple built stables, backs onto a state park and 40 miles of riding trails. “You’re in another world,” remarks the actor. “There’s a creek out front, which you just don’t find in Los Angeles.”

The interiors are “relaxed, comfortable; you walk in and throw your feet up—but at the same time, they’re artistic,” says Kimberly Quaid. Interior designers John and Krista Everage brought a farmhouse feel to the spaces, adding rough-hewn beams from a Pennsylvania barn to the living room. Kneedler-Fauchère floor lamp. Sconces and branch side table base, Gregorius/Pineo. Cowtan & Tout chaise pillow fabric. Wing chair pillow fabric, Clarence House.”

Marilyn Monroe’s Gorgeous Spanish Mansion

22 Mar


“The Brentwood home where Marilyn Monroe passed away is on the market for $3.6 million, having changed hands several times since that infamous day but no worse for wear. The star had purchased the home in 1962 for $90,000, and had been set to make mortgage payments at $320 a month.

The official listing highlights both the seclusion of the property and its close proximity to San Vicente Boulevard life. It has four bedrooms and three baths, and while the living space is only 2,624 square feet, the entire lot size is 23,200 square feet. Most of the property is taken up by the pool, grassy yard, courtyard, and citrus grove. According to the fan site Marilyn Monroe Memories, the actress was proud of her kidney-shaped pool even though she never got around to swimming in it; the home had only been in her possession for about six months before she passed.” – Read the rest of the Huffington Post Article by clicking here.

Megan Mullally & Parks and Recreation’s Nick Offerman’s Hollywood Haven

4 Nov

We Love Parks and Recreation’s Nick Offerman almost as much as we love his beautiful home. Check out this great article from Elle Decor!

 

“Everything’s chic and simple at the home of TV stars Megan Mullally and Parks and Recreation‘s Nick Offerman.

Written by Mayer Rus • Styled by Carolina Irving • Produced By Miguel Flores-Vianna

You’ll find only one television in the cheerful Hollywood home of actors Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman. It’s a modestly scaled set, and it’s sequestered in an armoire in the master bedroom. There’s no futuristic plasma number in the bathroom, no framed monitor above the fireplace, and no screening room with plush tiered seating and a popcorn-and-candy counter.

In an industry town like Los Angeles, having just a single television in a modern three-bedroom house is tantamount to treason—especially for two stars of the medium. But Mullally, who etched herself into the popular imagination as the boozy, wisecracking harpy Karen Walker on Will & Grace, and Offerman, who plays the dyspeptic Libertarian Ron Swanson on NBC’s Parks and Recreation, aren’t being deliberately contrary or twee. They just happen to like watching television in bed.”
