Disney Dollhouse Sells in 26 Days!
Having lived in this historical movie maker's house for the better part of 17 years, Walt's daughter, Diane, has fond memories of her childhood here. In 1932, a few years after he created Mickey Mouse, Walt Disney and family moved into this French, Normandy-style home in the Los Feliz Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles. Disney converted a guest bedroom/library into a screening room to view the studio dailies and to entertain his wife and two daughters with Disney movies, like their 1937 classic Snow White.

The property, which has painted and vaulted-beam ceilings, stained glass, a grand entrance and the original movie-screening room, has been extremely well preserved. Diane, recently told the home's listing agent, Patricia Ruben of Sotheby's International Realty-Los Feliz, that Disney projectionists would enter the screening room through a side door off the driveway, where they would wash their hands in a sink that was hidden behind a paneled door. The undersized sink is still there, along with a small bar.

Diane said she would watch newly released films in the movie room, a special childhood memory, and remembered a dollhouse delivered one Christmas morning, reportedly built by a Disney studio contractor to match the house. (The dollhouse is still there.) The Disney family lived in the home until 1949. Its recent asking price was $3,650,000, and it sold in 26 days for $3,700,000. Other than the kitchen, most everything in the house is original. Real estate agent Ruben said that the new owner plans to keep it that way.

Proving that the great innovators never give up during bad times, Disney, one of the great visionaries of the 20th century, overcame the bankruptcy of his Kansas City animation studio and relocated to Hollywood, where he and his brother Roy built the Disney Company into a multi-billion dollar entertainment conglomerate. In later years, the Disney men went on to transform Orlando, Fla., from a dull motel stop on the Florida Turnpike into the top vacation destination in the U.S.
