Historic Hollywood Tour of Homes
The A. V. Smith House, 220 La Prado Place
This charming brick Tudor Cottage and detached carriage house were originally built in 1928. Very few changes were made to the interior or exterior until the current owners purchased the home in 2016. The redesigned home has newly vaulted ceilings in the living room, foyer, and kitchen nook as well as a brand-new kitchen. The limestone floor in the foyer is original to the house as is the front door. The fireplace was reworked, adding a mantle that came from the carriage house. The gorgeous table in the kitchen nook was built from wood also salvaged from the carriage house. The two-story carriage house, which had fallen into disrepair, was completely rebuilt on the site of the original structure.
The Nelson House, 205 Bonita Drive
This 1925 Spanish Colonial Revival holds historic significance as the personal home of Hollywood's developer, Clyde Nelson, and one of the first built in the community. Designed by George P. Turner, the architect for many of Hollywood's original residences, the two-story gem features original beamed ceilings in the living room, archways in the foyer and den, four sets of French doors, large open porch with tile floor and fountain, limestone mantel, stucco walls, and a terracotta roof – all the finest materials.
The Davidson House, 312 English Circle
This 1926 two-story Tudor Revival is one of the original homes on English Circle. The owners have stayed true to the historic charm of the home, which includes a multiple cross-gabled roof, detached two-car garage, and metal casement windows throughout. The leaded glass in the front bay windows as well as many architectural items throughout the home were added by former homeowner Mary Adams of the popular Mary Adams Antiques in Homewood. An addition was made in the 1980s. The current homeowners are art lovers, and the home is currently full of beautiful collections.
