Once the home of actress Nancy Kulp, best known as Jane Hathaway on The Beverly Hillbillies, this property carries a unique Hollywood pedigree. Tucked just minutes from major studios—and neighboring the former homes of Kurt Russell and Henry Winkler—this retreat sits down a long, semi-private driveway behind its own gated entrance.
Expansive mountain views unfold from nearly every indoor and outdoor living space, including a brand-new Trex deck. Mature trees border one side of the property while wide-open vistas stretch across the other, creating a peaceful, secluded atmosphere rarely found in the heart of the city.
Set on an oversized, mostly flat lot, this reimagined single-level home blends modern style with timeless character. The existing concrete pad and permits for a casita, office, or yoga studio convey with the sale, offering valuable expansion potential. A stone-lined pathway with cascading waterfalls leads to the interior, where vaulted hardwood ceilings and a refreshed kitchen with quartz countertops set an elevated tone.
Located in the highly sought-after Carpenter Community Charter School district, the home offers quick access to top dining, boutique shopping, and nearby natural escapes such as Franklin Canyon and Coldwater Canyon Park.
Inside, multiple sets of glass doors create a seamless indoor/outdoor flow. Sunlight fills the rooms through large windows, highlighting whitewashed walls, exposed beams, hardwood floors, and stone-accented bathrooms. The kitchen overlooks a private courtyard and features stone counters, a custom backsplash, designer fixtures, white cabinetry, and high-end appliances including a Thor range.
The adjacent family room includes a large fireplace and opens directly to the view deck. The dining area—framed by a full wall of glass doors—showcases ever-changing mountain views as the backdrop to gatherings. Spacious secondary bedrooms, a generous primary suite, spa-inspired bathrooms, and an interior laundry closet complete the layout.
Exceptionally private and serene, the property feels like a hidden sanctuary while remaining close to everything Studio City has to offer. The outdoor spaces provide ample room for expansion, entertaining, or simply unwinding. A pergola-covered area—complete with an opening for stargazing—adds a special touch to the thoughtfully designed exterior.
Additional features include an EV charging station, parking for up to five vehicles, mature fruit trees, and an automated garden.
Property is listed for sale at $1,650,000.
