Legends House: John McVie/Raymond Chandler Pad Could Be Yours

LOS ANGELES, CA — This home was once owned by Raymond Chandler, the godfather of LA noir, the writer who gave us the hardboiled detective genre embodied by Philip Marlow (at various times played by Humphrey Bogart, Robert Mitchum, Elliott Gould, James Garner, and James Caan, just to name a few). And if that doesn't impress you (clearly you haven't read a Raymond Chandler book, and your life is incomplete), it's now owned and being sold by none other than the Mac in Fleetwood Mac, bassist John McVie.

The charming airy bungalow is billed as a celebrity hideaway in the heart of brentwood and marries the historic with the modern, offering moroccan tiles, solar panels, private gardens, and a state of-the-art alarm system.

So slap on your fedora or your leather rocker pants and make an offer.
