The late Bob Hope's name is closely associated with Toluca Lake,  a neighborhood within the city limits of Los Angeles.  At one time Hope owned much of the property in the area and his estate is there.  For decades it was a charming neighborhood with a village atmosphere.  Today it retains much of that charm -- but now, because it is right next to the Burbank Media District, high rise office towers are its backdrop.
Toluca Lake California homes.JPG (113222 bytes) These beautiful Toluca Lake homes are located on a street near the foot of the Hollywood Hills in The Valley not far from Bob Hope's estate. The architecture of the area is varied: Spanish Revival, mid-century modern, even an occasional Tudor style home.
