Laid out in the 1920s by Swiss architect Franz Herding, Hollywood Knolls homes feature many Spanish, Architectural and Post-and-Beam Modern homes.  While appearing to be modest from the outside, these Hollywood Knolls homes are layered onto the hillside and can offer more space and views than can be imagined from the street.  One can walk to Lake Hollywood lake, Lake Hollywood Park or down to the businesses that line Cahuenga and Ventura Blvds.  Freeway access to downtown, the San Fernando Valley and Pasadena are close by.  Warner Brothers and Disney are right down the hill towards Toluca Lake and Burbank, which offer additional shopping and dining options for residents.s
