A magnet for entertainment magnates

“This house seems to resonate with the people who have been looking at it who are in the entertainment industry because it’s peaceful, private, and has Griffith Park right behind it,” said listing agent Terry Canfield, a REALTOR®-Sales Associate with our Beverly Hills office.

“It’s like an oasis overlooking the park’s canyons, right below the Hollywood Sign in a celebrity enclave. Everybody up there is in the business.”

Terry and Rose Ware, her partner in the same office, don’t like to drop names–unless asked. But they were asked, and divulged a few of the home’s famous neighbors, all clients of the longtime real estate duo, as are the current owners:
