You can now rent out Walt Disney’s former home for $40K a month
Unleash your imagination and step into the world of old Hollywood by renting out Walt Disney’s former home in Los Feliz, California, for just $40,000 per month.
The 6,388Â square foot, 12-room house, built in 1932, has four bedrooms, five baths, a pool, a theater and a gymnasium, as well as an acre and a half garden.
The Woking Way house sits atop a gated drive with parking for 10. Rotunda entrance welcomes you into this magical place, and you’ll be immediately ushered into the dramatic two-story living room, with vaulted wood beamed ceilings, wood-paneled walls, brick fireplace and original leaded windows that view the backyard, pool, and downtown Los Angeles, according to the Zillow listing.
One wing of the house contained an elegant dining room, an eat-in kitchen with a center island and walk-in pantry. Opposite the living room is a home theater – this is were Disney watched dailies of his productions.
Disney purchased the land and wanted to build this house for his expectant wife. Architect Frank Crowhurst designed the house and the family moved in 1932. This is the childhood homes of the Disney daughters, Diane and Sharon. Disney was living here as he launched his animated feature films.
Disney would take his daughters on Saturdays to nearby Griffith Park to ride the Merry-Go-Round which inspired him to create Disneyland. In 1950, the Disney family moved to the Carolwood Drive estate.
