It is literally the house that Disney built. We’re not talking about the Magic Castle, but instead Walt Disney’s actual longtime home—now available to rent.
With a monthly asking price of $40,000, the four bedroom/five bedroom residence boasts more than 6,300 square feet of living space. The custom-built home has been carefully restored over the years, blending Disney charm with modern amenities, by director Timur Bekmambetov, who bought it in 2011 for $3.7 million.
The majestic home sits atop a gated drive with parking for 10. Inside, a dramatic two-story living room, with vaulted wood beamed ceilings, wood paneled walls and brick fireplace creates a warm, cozy vibe. From there, one wing of the house offers an elegant dining room with French doors to the outside, and artisanally painted ceiling set amidst interlaced beams. Opposite the living room on the other wing is the home theater, still intact where Walt watched dailies of his productions.
Upstairs, the spacious primary suite rests above the theater, with city views, ample closets and well adorned bathroom featuring dual vanities, large dual head shower, centerpiece tub and period tile. The other wing features two generous guest bedrooms with a well-appointed bathroom between them. Completing the upstairs is a sun-lit family room with vaulted ceilings and access to a former sleeping porch.
The outdoor grounds feature well-landscaped walkways, lush grass lawn, a pool, trellis covered outdoor dining area, and an entire separate area that functions as private park.
