The picturesque compound in Laurel Canyon, which was previously rented by Jennifer Aniston during her time on the popular TV show "Friends," has been a residence for various performers throughout the years. Notable occupants include Hollywood couple Corbin Bernsen and Amanda Pays, as well as Spanish cinematographer Nestor Alemdros, who won an Academy Award for his work on the film "Days of Heaven" in 1978.

Referred to as the esteemed "Crown Jewel of Laurel Canyon," the property exudes a humble charm, according to Wendy Moore of Compass, who recently listed the property. It also served as the long-term dwelling of actor and producer Beach Dickerson, who appeared in a range of films from 1956 to 1991, as reported by various sources. Another renowned inhabitant was Scotty Bowers, who gained fame as a procurer of prostitutes for Hollywood's A-List in the 1940s and '50s, and was the subject of the 2017 documentary "Scotty and the Secret History of Hollywood.

" During Aniston's tenure, she resided in the A-frame guest house while filming "Friends," which aired from 1994 to 2004.

According to Moore, the property has a nostalgic allure, reminiscent of Old Hollywood, and has been thoughtfully preserved to maintain its original character. Records show that the compound was last sold for $2.04 million in 2020 and underwent renovations by Bernsen, known for his role as a divorce attorney on the TV series "L.

A. Law," and Pays, who portrayed Theora Jones in the "Max Headroom" franchise. The property is currently held in a family trust, as per property records. Moore believes that the compound's most exceptional feature is the breathtaking view, describing it as one of the best in Los Angeles.

The property spans 0.13 acres and consists of a main house built in 1936 with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, an A-frame guest house featuring a loft bedroom, a bathroom, and a kitchenette, a pool house, and a hillside bungalow utilized as an office or studio, amounting to a total of approximately 2,400 square feet.

Aside from the four buildings, the compound offers additional amenities such as a pool, a spa, and various outdoor seating areas, including a dining patio. Laurel Canyon, located in the Hollywood Hills area of the Santa Monica Mountains, is renowned for its tight-knit community of actors, musicians, and other creative individuals, overlooking the iconic Sunset Boulevard.

According to Moore, the neighborhood emits a tranquil ambiance, almost resembling a small town. She also mentioned that residents frequently gather at the Canyon Country Store, a local grocery store that hosts an annual group photo shoot, further showcasing the strong sense of community in the area.
