ByMyProperty Life

The American actor, writer, and director lists her Spanish-style villa after owning it for over 20 years.

Tucked away below the iconic Hollywood sign, the Beachwood Canyon compound located at 2980 Belden Drive has had quite the list of notable names tied to it since 1927. 

Once home to late American novelist Zane Grey, the 2,150-square-foot property is today known for serving as the longtime residence of actress Heather Graham, who bought the compound in 1998 for $880,000.

Aside from the carriage-house-style two-car garage, much of the 2,150-square-foot home is hidden from street view, creating a private oasis within the coveted area of Beachwood Canyon.

“It’s a very romantic and dreamy estate with magical views of the canyon,” says Elizabeth Halsted, the agent listing the property. “It feels like a mini-estate. It’s very private; it feels like it’s being taken care of by the canyon.” 

Bright, airy, and spacious, the two-story living room is steeped in historic charm, featuring the home's original wooden mantel, beamed ceilings, and open brick staircase.

  • Space in the Wall

    Space in the Wall The thought process regarding the challenging tall and narrow structure centers around a space that flows through the building and functions as a light cone that allows daylight to pierce through all the way to the basement and a joint wall, made of exposed concrete in “board” configuration, divided into squares, separated from the exterior wall of the house, which is made of glass, and acts as an artistic, somewhat “Brutalistic” element the house, one half of a two-family dwelling on a 220 square meters lot, and 360 square meters built, is designed for 2 young families with 2 children each, each family has 2 floors, the first family has the ground floor (living room, kitchen, dining room and garden) and basement (bedrooms and pool). The second family has the first floor (bedrooms) and the top floor (living room, dining room and a garden balcony)
    The front of the building that faces the street is made with a combination of concrete, steel and wood. We’ve used these natural materials throughout the building. Stairs and banister from steel plates on the ground floor and a banister and counter-top with a sink out of steel grid on the first floor.
    the flooring is out of concrete, with the concrete wall “accompanying” the entire house. Wood beams in the kitchen, the ceiling, a vertical shading and the floor.
    The challenge to create a living space while using every available inch and maintaining privacy, while communicating with the residents who are design enthusiasts was completed with 2 modern villas, each with its own connection to the outside and with a unique and fashionable living space in the dense urban surrounding.
