1901 ORCHID Avenue, Los Angeles CA

Las Orquideas, a 9-unit Spanish Revival Village by Architect Wilfred Buckland, 1929. Howell + Padgett, Restoration, 2019. Nestled in the Hollywood foothills, like the Andalusian hill towns that inspired it, Las Orquideas is a collection of 5 villa-like structures housing nine unique residences and 1 flex space. Buckland, Cecil B. DeMille's art director and the original owner, designed the property for himself as a replica of a Spanish hill town, with ascending walkways, connecting gardens, and intimate plazas. The entire complex has been immaculately restored. If there was ever a pride of ownership asset, Las Orquideas is it. The 9-residence compound offers the style, character and rich details of a landmark historic property with the modern amenities of new construction. Mills Act.
