Buff and Hensman’s glorious 1969 Wong House seeks $5M

The Wong House, a fabulous post and beam “on one of the best Los Feliz streets,” has the celebrity seal of approval: it was previously owned by then-couple Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds. (The pair divorced in 2011.)

Built in 1969, the Buff & Hensman-designed residence has since been updated, notably in the kitchen, which features walls of glass and views of Downtown. Sliding glass doors open off the kitchen, allowing for a smooth flow between the kitchen and the patio area immediately outside.

One of the three bedrooms is a master suite with dual sinks and an outdoor bathtub on its own private patio.

The rear yard is a grassy, mostly flat space with a fire pit and pool, as well as that aforementioned patio. The yard—fenced in by hedges and landscaping—is “totally private.”

Last sold in 2012 for $3.5 million, the Wong house is listed for $4.999 million.
