Before Venice became a global shorthand for surf culture, it was a playground for early Hollywood. Silent film stars once drifted to Venice—among them were Isadora Duncan, Charlie Chaplin, and Tom Mix, whose former home at 1915 Ocean Front Walk still stands today. Now this unique address is on the market, listed by The Agency’s Aayeesha Essue, Jean-Baptiste Rugiero, and Alexander Koustas.
Spanning approximately 2,631 square feet, the residence encompasses five bedrooms and five bathrooms and is currently configured as a luxury short-term rental. Original architectural details and handcrafted tile work anchor the home in its past, while thoughtful updates bring modern ease and livability.
Take in Ocean and Boardwalk views from the interiors and a rooftop deck. A separate one-bedroom condominium with its own private garage allows for owner occupancy, guest accommodations, or additional rental income, a rare asset in this location.
When it comes to modern amenities, a 10-person sauna and a gated courtyard with parking for approximately four to six vehicles offer a level of privacy and convenience that is almost unheard of along Ocean Front Walk.
Situated directly on the Venice Boardwalk—and conveniently neighboring the Venice pickleball courts—this Spanish Colonial–style property awaits endless possibilities for its next era.
Reach out to Aayeesha Essue, Jean-Baptiste Rugiero, or Alexander Koustas to schedule a private tour.
