French country-style estate in Hancock Park by Stiles O. Clements seeks $7.7M

Designed by Stiles O. Clements—the architect of the Adamson House in Malibu and the Mayan Theater in Downtown Los Angeles—this Hancock Park house is a a classic.

Hidden behind tall hedges, the French Country estate has an effortless elegance from its curving staircase to its verdant garden. Transom windows brighten many of the rooms, including the living room with bar.

The four-bedroom house sits on an approximately 20,000-square-foot lot, which is shared by an outdoor dining room, a guesthouse, a pool, and a sports court.

The estate has recently been refreshed. It went on the market in March 2016 and sold about three months later for $5.9 million. Now, after about a year and a bit of a stylistic update, it’s back on the market again, this time asking $7.7 million.
