Meridith Baer Home Staged the Former House of Judy Garland and Sammy Davis Jr.

The Hollywood Hills are rich with show business history.

It’s not uncommon to find homes in the area with multiple celebrity owners over time, dating back to Tinseltown’s classic days.

We recently staged one of these storied properties: a hillside house above the Sunset Strip designed and built in 1941 by architect-to-the-stars John Elgin Woolf.

The property was occupied in the mid-1940s by actress-singer Judy Garland, her husband, film and stage director Vincente Minnelli, and their daughter, Liza Minnelli. It was later sold to Rat Pack entertainer Sammy Davis Jr. and during his stay, musical acts such as the Band also lived and recorded there.

We styled the property with a midcentury transitional feel, evoking its history of creativity and cool.

We staged the listing for Alexandra Pfeifer, Berkshire Hathaway.

The house is a Los Angeles Times Hot Property this week:

Our latest luxury home staging success story is Zen Housz, an historic modernist treasure that sold in under a month for more than a half million over asking!

Nestled in the hills of Los Angeles’ chic Brentwood neighborhood, the house features inlaid bronze framing a beautiful custom colored floor, matched teak cabinetry, and 180 degree views from Malibu’s Getty Museum to downtown Los Angeles through a back wall of glass.

Premier Luxury Staging: White Oak Estate

Home staging exists to help properties sell faster and for higher prices. But as interior designers, we don’t just consider our homes to be real estate transactions—each one is also a fine art project, where every detail counts and the final result needs to be not just marketable, but beautiful.

This is premier luxury staging.

Our latest showcase project is White Oak Estate, a gorgeous gated residence in Encino, CA. Boasting an open floorplan living area, five bedroom suites, a chef’s kitchen with double islands, and two pool houses, the property was an ideal canvas for design.

White Oak Estate

We dressed the house in our singularly elegant rustic transitional style, layering rich wood, leather, and brass accents over a crisp white and gray palette, with unique accessories and art making the space feel like a fashionable, finished home.READ MORE
