President Ronald Reagan’s L.A. Home Finds a Buyer in No Time

Published: February 18, 2020 | By: American Luxury Staff

A property which once served as Ronald Reagan’s home—during his days as an actor—popped up on the market this winter, and went into pending status within days. The Shuwarger House, as it is known, was listed for $6.75 million around the middle of January, and had generated an acceptable offer before the month was out.

The Georgian Colonial Revival home was designed by Los Angeles-area architect Paul Williams, and built in 1938. Its exterior is whitewashed brick, with a symmetrical façade punctuated by a covered second-floor balcony, and a recessed entrance flanked by oval windows.

The interiors begin with an oval foyer. Inlaid oak or oak plank floors throughout the home are original, and period details are abundant: wall niches, crown moldings, fireplaces with marble surrounds, and hardwood paneling are a few of them. A very formal dining room, a great room, a wet bar, and a dramatic black-on-white kitchen are a few of the property’s luxurious amenities.

There are five bedrooms and seven baths in the home’s 6,153 square feet of interior living spaces. Bedrooms are pattern-themed, with their respective baths receiving treatment in kind. A touch heavy-handed. The master is finished in creamy peach, and paired with an extravagant bath.

The lot extends to a little less than half an acre. A brick patio, gardens, lawns, mature trees, and a pool adjacent to a covered dining area complete this Hollywood golden-age fantasy in Little Holmby.
