That's not the original Pickfair house. It was torn down because when Pia bought it she said it was haunted. Such a shame. They destroyed that kind of history.

[@BUBBLESPOGO]

If there is demonic activity it's best to raise the property, have it blessed and rebuild at a different angle on the same property.

[@joonaslehtonen7965]

Allways felt very strong curiosity and admiration to old Hollywood celebreties, their lifestyle and houses.

[@DrGariS]

Fun!

[@fernandamangini8039]

I love seeing celebrity homes, one of my first times in LA we decided to tour their homes, and saw quite a few including Lucy's home which I loved, just a shame it no longer looks like the original plus a whole host of others. In 1991, when Michael Landon passed we tried desperately to find his home and found someone who actually knew where his home was, and we were surprised to find out his home was at the end of a dirt road. Thank you for giving us these virtual tours.

[@DrGariS]

Wow that is such a great comment! Thank you so much!

[@jessicagreene1773]

It's incredible to think Elizabeth Montgomery lived in that huge beautiful house compared to the home Dick York lived in his last years.

[@DrGariS]

True - she also came from a celebrity family do not forget!

[@jude1515]

Great tour. All the homes are beautiful. I imagine they take a lot of money just for the upkeep. I like Marilyn Monroes house and Elizabeth Montgomerys house.

[@DrGariS]

You have great taste. Upkeep is crazy

[@queencerseilannister3519]

I heard another story that one time Vivian and Lucy were on her sofa and Jack Benny just walked inside, began playing a trumpet (I believe it was) then turned around and left 🤣🤣 I couldn't imagine the fun they had.

[@spitfire3984]

I admit it…Im obsessed with old Hollywood. This was a great video. I can’t imagine the fun they had back then. The world has changed for the better and for the worst, in different ways.

[@DrGariS]

When you were famous back then you were REALLY famous. Now everyone is famous-Ish!

[@markberryhill2715]

@@DrGariS the stars on this tour's work has withstood the test of time. Let's hope today's trash doesn't.

[@AlmondJoie]

Elizabeth Montgomery was notoriously private, but how cool it would've been to have seen her on the cover of AD with pictures of her beautiful home inside. RIP EVM💔

[@DrGariS]

I would have loved that! I did not know she was that private!

[@DrGariS]

You did? When? Wow, that’s so interesting

[@AlmondJoie]

@@DrGariS EVM did her work, but didn't seem to care much for doing press junkets or red carpet appearances. She was kind when respectfully approached by fans, but according to one of her best friends, she hated being asked to twitch her nose. I've never seen any old magazines featuring her and the interior of her beautiful home, but would love to if there are any that are still in existence. I vaguely recall that she was also quite the artist and loved to paint in her spare time. It would be great to see some of her beautiful talent. RIP EVM❤️

[@traceylcooper]

Wow on Jimmy Stewarts past home. He deserved it. If you still have not seen the movie, you MUST! I recommend it toward Christmas time, and I watch it again nearly every year, such good childhood memoriy from when I first saw it...(Was an old movie back then!)

[@gvie56]

On Roxbury, just a little north on the opposite side from The Benny and Ball’s home were the homes of Rosemary Clooney and next to it was the home of Ira Gershwin. I remember driving by the tutor home of Jimmy Stewart and he actually opened the front door and got his mail.

[@DrGariS]

Wow - did not know that about Stewart but yes I know the Clooney house - also Agnes Moorehead, Madonna and Diane Keaton - same block!!!!

[@GeorgeVreelandHill]

I live in Beverly Hills and have seen all of this many, many times, but this is a great video. Well done. It's like revisiting everything again.

[@DrGariS]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@donnapollock]

I love your tours. Very interesting to watch and see. I have been up in the area looking many years ago and I got to see Sammy Davis Jr way at the top of a hill he was leaving his house when we passed and he waved and said hello. we also saw Burt Reynolds house too. They were just building Tom Jones home, the all brick one just as your going up the hill. I loved that house many years ago. Thanks again....

[@DrGariS]

Thank you so very much for the lovely comment

[@michellescarborough16]

I love the outside of the Pickford home. The architecture back then with all these homes has more style and character than the boxes they build today. Just my opinion. Love old Hollywood. Thank you for this video, it was really interesting.

[@DrGariS]

Thank you for such a nice comment. I’m so glad you enjoyed!

[@Nunofurdambiznez]

It's not the original Pickford house - her house was bought by Pia Zadora who had it torn down because she thought it was "haunted".

[@SusanGK1]

My husband and I went to Beverly hills while visiting a friend. We went down Sunset Blvd and it when right into a street with some beautiful homes. We probably drove by some famous peoples home but didn't know who lived where. If we ever go again I'll be sure to go by these homes! Thanks.

[@DrGariS]

It is lovely here for sure

[@beautymaven3952]

California Gal strange how he walked in front of them though...because when I went, if you were caught STANDING in front of any celebrity home, you’d get arrested. Even our tour bus would not stop for photos, as he said he’d get fined.

[@barryirvin2417]

Stewart lived in the Tudor home for over 40 years and thought it was hideous looking lol . He would have hated the big mansion that sits in his old lot now . Jimmy was low key and humble . Loved him .

[@DrGariS]

Thanks for the nice comment

[@spitfire3984]

The former Beverly Hills mayor must’ve had a heck of a career before becoming mayor. That home is amazing!

[@DrGariS]

Her husband is Jon Bosse. The interior of the house is incredible!

Thank you for going to the trouble of putting this up, I really enjoyed it.

[@DrGariS]

My pleasure!

[@BedfordFalls7]

I get so melancholy when I see these homes because so many stars are gone. Jimmy Stewart is one of my all time favorites. Because of his role in It's A Wonderful Life. George Bailey reminds me of the father I had. My father's name was George also. And Jimmy was such a down to earth sweet man in real life. Great actor. So many of these people are gone now and I just feel sad when I see these tours. I enjoy seeing the homes, but it's bittersweet.

[@kelleymariejones6388]

I agree and I would have loved to own the home. My heart is in Hollywood ( not the industry but the beautiful town. I yearn to be there again soon!

[@pacificdragon1]

I wonder how much of these huge mansions do people actually really live in, and how much is for show and or used during parties?

[@DrGariS]

I have not seen drug parties in any of these - it is typically quiet around here at night

[@apocalypseplough8089]

Elizabeth Montgomery was very grounded, despite the mansion. She sent her kids to public school.

[@DrGariS]

I agree

[@kerrykeene6471]

From everything that I've read from people who met Liz or knew her, the words they used to describe her were, kind, sweet, down to earth, unaffected and others.

[@lilylittlemonster5]

The public schools in those neighborhoods back in the day used to be very good. It was normal if you lived in those neighborhoods for your kids to attend public school.

[@janadeubner9883]

Beautiful homes! The Colonial was actually Carole Lombard's home when she was seeing and then married Clarke Gable not Humphrey Bogart. Bogart and Bacall lived there in Brentwood also. That must have been some swanky place to live back in the day! Thank you for the tour!

[@DrGariS]

Thanks for the info!

Monroe seemed to prefer cozy, warm environments as opposed to massive and impersonal.

[@DrGariS]

Yes, she seemed pretty humble

[@ladycharlotte8693]

She didn’t have the money to buy a big estate.....poor thing people used her up where ever she went

[@Light-Shift]

She had no money. She was treated without respect and her salaries corresponded.

[@nomadyesmad4875]

That was Clark and Carole's home. I read many years ago when Lucy lived on Roxbury some fans ( not many they had more respect ) would go up and knock on the door, and Lucy would tell Desi or whomever was in the room to answer the door it was for them LOL !

[@DrGariS]

Oh wow, that’s so cool to know!

[@SymphonyBrahms]

Jack Benny often opened his own door to fans as well. And Lucy gave out Halloween candy to kids every year.

[@suzyfarnham3165]

Lombards house since she was married to Powell was a Dutch colonial and before she even married Gable she moved in with him to his farm on 20 acres in Encino that Gable bought from Raoul Walsh. Bogart lived in 2 houses with Bacall,the first for only a few months then their 'forever home in Benedict Canyon until he died.They had bought it from Hedy Lamarr

[@gary1705]

I believe that Peter Faulks wife still lives at the home and she played multiple rolls in his Columbo series.

Mary Pickford's orginal House was demolished after it was sold , by her daughters. The buyer promised not to tear down the house . Once he got possession of the house he knocked down and built a monster house . The original estate had a guest house at the back .

[@HeidyFranz]

It is kind of sad that the children of these celebrities have no care to keep the houses where they grew up in, I feel so sad that I couldn't keep my grandparents house, which was sold from my greedy aunt so fast when they died. I was lucky to have gotten many things that may not be worth much, but are personal items while they were still alive, I treasure each item and I tell my children and grandchildren all the stories and memories they have shared with me. Looking at where Lucy and Jimmy's beautiful home's once stood, where now in my opinion these cold mansion's are, makes my heart ache.

[@stokedtoker9455]

When I was a young man, I worked on a home (construction) located on a corner of Sunset and something or other. Years later, it gained notoriety when the owner painted the naked statues in flesh tones. House was huge, kind of French Provincial style I'm guessing. Giant Porte Coche, Olympic pool, theater for about 20 as I recall, tennis court. Sat on about 4 acres would be my guess. Always wondered about the history of the home as I figured it was built in the 1920's or so. Can anyone enlighten me as to the history of this home?

[@robertmauro2230]

I would be very interested in seeing the Lou Costello home and also the Walt Disney home.

Ive always thought that it would be just fitting if a real committed fan of a beloved celebrity, made it big enough to buy the former home of their favourite celeb! I cant think of a better tribute Because the person would treasure every inch of that property & make sure it was lovingly cared for. It wouldnt be for the grandeur or a quick flip for money but for the love & respect for the beloved old film star! I remember seeing a wonderful home once owned by a silent film star ( female) & it was all Art Neuveau & Deco intermixed yet it blended so well & it was a beautiful home with lots of foliage & open passageways I wish i could remember the name of the female star!! I know they died at this property Thanks for your video Peace 🇬🇧👧

The original gates of Pickfair remain. The house was torn down by Pia Zadora to build the structure which is now on site. It was ashame to tear down Pickfair for many reasons. But what remains is not Pickfair.

[@karenkenig3638]

According to Pia Zadora Pickfair was extremely haunted and they couldn't handle the paranormal activity! I'm sure the new house is more modern as well.

That wasn't actually Jimmy Stewart's house. It's the same address, but they built the current house in (the one in your video) in 2000 after tearing down his much smaller tudor house in 1998 (which I actually had the privilege of visiting when he was alive).

I know her and I’ve been to her house. She actually had a baby bull in her yard - about 10 years ago. Her sister helps her with all her clothes and when you call the house, the sister sounds just like her. Her husband committed suicide a couple of years ago and her son Shel used to live with her. She’s a nice lady and she does live performances all the time all over the world. She’s better known all over the world than in the US. She’s an incredible guitarist. She does well

[@diannerussell9653]

My favourite is the Marilyn house. It’s good that they keep it pretty much the same as when she purchased it. She was planning on getting major remodelling done to the rooms and garden however she only enjoyed the home for a brief period of time. She had ordered a new sofa and had most of her Mexican furniture and artwork in storage. I would have loved to have seen the house decorated the way she wanted it and the garden done out like she wanted. The ceilings in the house have exposed beams and they look beautiful. The church shaped arch ways leading into the Lounge room are pretty, so are the beautiful 1920s windows and doors. It maybe a small house compared to the big luxurious homes in the neighbourhood but I think it’s got a special Loveliness about it. ❤

[@DrGariS]

Thanks for the comment. I agree with you on many of your points! That house would be so delightful to see it in the glory of what she would have done and felt comfortable with. I’m glad at least the owners have kept its integrity

[@anniesizemore3344]

Pia Zadora had the original Pickfair demolished. She originally said it was because of termites. Later she appeared on a tv show talking about the ghost she saw in it. She said she heard 1920's music playing in it and said a apparition of a laughing woman. appeared next to a bed.

[@paulaltman9751]

Pickfair was demolished by Pia Zadora. That is a different house altogether and there is less land than when Mary Pickford lived there. Lucy's original house was also torn down.

[@DrGariS]

Correct about Pickfair. Lucy's house was not torn down but definitely a heavy remodel was unfortunately done!

One thing to know about Charo that you should know, Charity was a virtuoso flamingo guitar player. One of the best in the world. More than just a funny lady. Pickfair Manor was owned by Jeanie Buss and her father Jerry Buss the owner of the L.A. Lakers, the L.A. Lasers and the Fabulous Forum amongst other things, I believe before Pia Zadora.

I actually know her home and her personally - have been to her home multiple times. She lives there with her sister (who sounds just like her when you call).

@@DrGariS --- I've been to a party at PickFair Manor way back in the 1980s. That's when Jeanie Buss and her father Jerry owned the home. They had a party there at PickFair Manor for season ticket owners for the L.A. Lazers soccer team and one of my sisters had season tickets. My father had season tickets called Senate Seats for many years. The Senate Seats were for every event at the Fabulous Forum. Every concert, the circus, hockey, rodeo, truck pull, tennis matches, Kings games, Laker games(the seats were located 4 rows directly behind the Lakers bench), you got parking in VIP for every event, Forum Club passes for every event, you got waitress at your seats who gave you a program and a menu for every event. He always used the Laker tickets himself and he would give two of the four seats to business partners and friends, and us kids could pick a couple of whatever events he didn't care about or he wasn't giving to soneone. I got to see a lot of concerts, rodeo, truck pulls, Kings games( again seats behind the King's bench and penalty box. But, I digress, PickFair was an absolute gem of a home and the grounds around it were gorgeous. Like most of L.A. on warm summer nights the smell of night blooming Jasmine permeated the air. One of my favorite things is that smell at night.

I'm pretty sure Jimmy Stewart's house was torn down upon his death and the one in the video is newer. Pickfair was torn down by Pia Zadora. a

Yes, I believe he lived on two lots

@@DrGariS He tore down the house on the corner, so he could have a garden.
