The Los Angeles estate Walt Disney once haunted is one notable new addition to the upper-level Los Angeles rental market this summer. The property became available this month at $40K per month. Disney had the home custom-designed by Frank Crowhurst, and lived here with his family from the early 1930s until 1950.

For renters looking to inhabit the former home of an American icon, the 1932-built European architectural mix stands as a very appealing option. It sports an L-shaped design, a bit of storybook inspiration (not surprisingly) that includes half-timbering and a turret entry that’s covered in creeping vine, leaded glass, and a great deal of red brick in its lower level and foundation.

With four bedrooms across 6,388 sq. ft., the house is of fairly manageable size, and it sits on a lot that spans an acre or more, and is generally populated by gardens. Its interiors begin with a rotunda foyer floored in glossy parquet, with a curving staircase rising to the upper level toward an ornate dome ceiling with pendant fixture.

The living room boasts a gambrel ceiling with exposed timber, hardwood paneling, a leaded-glass picture window, a brick fireplace, and narrow-plank floors; the dining room is decked out with a stenciled coffered ceiling, while the updated kitchen features a newer island contrasted with French doors with original stained glass panes.

Specialized spaces in the home include a breakfast room with subway tile and more original stained glass, a fireplace screening room, and a gym. But the home’s best-kept secret may be the upper-level sunroom porch, which overlooks the property’s landscaping, and holds the promise of leisurely afternoons.
