Mae West: Spanish Villa

Her celebrity solidified by Hollywood movies, MAE WEST bought a modest house with a 1,596-square-foot interior, a generous lawn, and a backyard pool. Mature pine trees, palms, plantings, and a lawn fill out the approximately 6,000-square-foot lot. A decade ago, a buyer purchased it. Now it’s back on the market. Let’s read about it and dream of the Brooklyn bombshell enjoying her life there. This is Part 3 of 3 parts, the finale.

• • Paige Austin wrote: Former residence of the Hollywood star and icon Mae West. Original white brick masonry, classic Spanish tile, dramatic arches and loaded with warmth and "Old Hollywood" charm. Soaring wood beamed ceilings and an intimate covered back patio and private pool area great for entertaining and dinner parties. Wood burning fireplaces, incredible formal dining, tile floors, large front grassy yard and covered veranda. Surrounded by mature pine trees and palm trees this property instantly takes you back in time. Very rarely does a timeless hacienda style home this special come to market.

The bar stool is her throne, the cocktail glass her sceptre, and the regality is pitched somewhere between Mae West and Dorothy Parker. . . .
