Noteworthy home

If you recognize the 1920s-era apartment building turned condo at 3400 San Marino St. in Los Angeles’ Mid Wilshire district, congratulations. You’re a certified movie buff.

Penthouse Unit F in the building, which served as a location for 1954’s “Witness to Murder,” was just sold by sister agents Kim Halverson and Kristine Halverson of our Santa Monica real estate office. The sellers are also pretty well-known, humorist Christian Lander (“Stuff White People Like”) and his wife Jess, an advertising exec.

For more photos and a tour of the home in one of the last great old Hollywood-style residential buildings in L.A., check out Curbed Los Angeles and PopSugar.

Historic home for sale

A lost treasure has been found in Los Angeles. The Fleet House, acknowledged by the Los Angeles Conservancy as being a major part of one of the most “unusual and pedigreed chapters in the history of manufactured homes,” could be yours for $948,000.

The Fleet House was first occupied by Reginald Fleet, president of Southern California Homes, and his family in the late 1940s. It was a creative solution to the challenge of providing affordable single-family housing in a postwar economy. It is made of lightweight aluminum panels with a paper honeycomb core — innovative yet modest materials that created a look that no other home during its time resembled. The Fleet House may be the only structure still remaining that was designed, built, and pre-assembled entirely in an aircraft factory.

Noteworthy homes

Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bays Rays recently purchased a residence in West Hollywood for $1.95 million. The team’s slugging third baseman now calls the 1925 Spanish-style house home.

The 1,850-square-foot space was recently renovated, and its defining features are the courtyard entry, beamed ceilings, and arched doorways. The home has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a formal dining room, an office, and an updated kitchen. Outside, the hedged grounds feature a patio, a courtyard and sitting area and a large lawn.
