This house is amazing! 😍😍😍I love the bathroom and those green tiled stairs.

It's a great house but those trees out front sure could use some trimming so that you can actually see the house. The bathroom is cool.

I love Art Deco but IMO that is not an art deco bathroom and IMO does not work at all with the rest of the house . I do like the green tiled stairs/ I think bathrooms and kitchens needd to be brought into the 21 century and that bathroom could still be a bit art deco but a truly functioning bathroom for how we live today just like the rest of the house has been done.Something like this IMO would be much more in keeping with the rest of the house .

Patricia, that bathroom is definitely art deco in feel. And it works perfectly for the time frame it was built. Color was very big in the 20's and 30's which is when that bathroom was built. In fact what you show as "more in keeping with the house" would not work as what you show was from an earlier time period. (You might want to read up more on older home styles.)

@cpartist - I agree as it is very Southern California Deco - It is transitional as it was built in the 1940's which is why I said it was also Moderne which is where Deco was headed for in the 1940's after WW II. Home was built in 1946

I lived in a home on Outpost for awhile that was built in the 1920's or perhaps early 1930's. It was classic Spanish Colonial of that era and the bathroom was the earlier Art Deco with zigguraut geometrics but the green bathroom fixtures with that kind of detail around the tub are from the earlier pure Deco.

Agree as a home in the 1940's would NOT have a clawfoot tub. It would have colored fixtures that were built in. The bathroom would have probably had pink in the 1950's because of Mamie Eisenhower ETA - That an Art Deco bathroom even in the 1920's would not have a clawfoot tub because Art Deco was the style of the sophisticated urbane person and they would likely have been early adopters of modern plumbing like the Kohler bathtubs because they were marketed as being modern and sanitary.

This isn't a HOUSE - it's a unit in a historic apartment building. And that bathroom is GORGEOUS. All of the little alcoves and niches - to die for. The interior doors in the bedroom don't seem to be original, though. The kitchen looks like someone tried to bring it into "the 21st Century" ala Patricia's suggestion ... and you can see how that turned out. It needs a bit of love to shine again. I live above Outpost off Mulholland (above the Reservoir) @Helen!

@JP L Yes it is a townhouse and not a "mansion"

And I agree regarding the kitchen as it is a bit of a half arsed remuddle as Sophie Wheeler would have said.

I just found the bathroom so interesting as whoever did the bathroom had a completely different sensibility than whoever did the kitchen but thankfully they left those green stairs.

I also think the staging is particularly good because it captures the feel of 1940's furniture without being slavishly retro. My mother was a new bride from this era (well actually a WW II bride) and she never got over her love of Heywood Wakefield furniture beause that was the ultimate furniture for her fantasy apartment. She almost bought me a set of dining room stuff when we came across a shop in Orange, California that specialized in it.

The staging is exceptionally good, I agree!

We still have so many of those curvy corner tubs here in older Detroit homes. Showers off to the side, too. In our mansions, the tile goes to the ceiling, the bath is often in an ornate alcove, and black tiles outline each fixture with geometric shapes.

It looks like someone once replaced the shower floor. It is a shame that, with all those colors to choose from, they could not find a tile that matched the bathroom colors better. At least it is unobtrusive.
