The Houdini Estate, A Hollywood Hills Experience

About the Space

101 locations in one for a love story or a Tarzan movie. Rent mansion with its whole five-acre Estate. Great for any type of production, events, and weddings. This one-of-a-kind Estate features an expansive lawn, terraced gardens, rock waterfalls, a natural-spring pond, hiking trails, and romantic gazebos with stunning canyon vistas. Film crews have multiple backgrounds to choose from: tropical, jungle, steep hills, terraces, hidden gardens, caves, rock passages, cliffs, and more. The Estate still has the deep-water tank where Houdini reportedly practiced his underwater escapes. This private property and its gardens boast numerous modern amenities while maintaining the grand mystique and marvel of the famous magician. Features include high-speed Internet, satellite television, outdoor fireplaces, barbecue patios, five gazebos, three water fountains, a heated pool, an outdoor spa, and more. The property’s main house has two stories and four bedrooms. A master suite features a carved-marble mantelpiece and a spacious bathroom with a whirlpool tub, three bathrooms plus five outdoor ones, ample living room next to the dining area, an open-plan kitchen, greenrooms, wardrobe, and make-up area. Easy loading and storage space for equipment. The fenced and gated Estate is ultra-private and four minutes from Sunset Strip, nine minutes from Beverly Hills, and twelve minutes from Universal Studios. We only provide the property, so you’re welcome to bring your own caterers, drinks, equipment, and props. We’re also happy to make suggestions and help you plan. Please note, outdoor noise of moderate volume is allowed until 10:00 p.m. per city ordinance; indoors until 2:00 a.m. We charge $100 to your group to send somebody knowledgeable about the Estate to open and explain the property. Your $100 payment is donated entirely to an IRS-recognized charity; you will also receive a credit of $100 toward your rent with our compliments if you book at the showing.
