So glad this grand house has been preserved instead of turned into parking lot, like so many other grand mansions in SoCal.

I liked everything about this house. I am surprised that they used curtains instead of pocket or french doors to separate rooms. Strange. It's amazing that the house still stands. Wonder what it looks like now.

I loved the breakfast room. Such small, intimate rooms for family breakfasts were usually bright, cheerful, with good views of the grounds. Many families also used them for afternoon tea with a family member when not entertaining, or even a casual supper. Once the staff served the tea tray, they disappeared for very private family - or "madame's" - personal time. Very cozy in a grand home. Dining rooms were very formal, usually only for entertaining, which of course was frequent and lavish. And libraries are always my favorite rooms in any house. Nice that he had a second library, a rare book room for his treasures. Crazily eclectic exterior design, but interiors were surprisingly lovely.

That house and surrounding properties was turned into Mount Saint Mary's University, a private university dedicated to under-privileged women (I believe it is co-ed now). USC's main library has the Doheny name, dedicated to one of his sons who died in WWI, while in the US Army. I'm sure there is more of the Doheny generosity that I'm not aware of.

Very opulent home. The plaster was incredible with the design continuing from the walls to the ceiling. And two libraries. I found the home to be comfortable. I really liked the kitchen! And the landscaped grounds were beautiful. I’m with the person who commented the desire to walk up the driveway. I hope the home still exists and is preserved. I also felt the clip went too quickly through the rooms. I wanted to stay awhile longer and soak all the details in 😊😊
