What does a Hollywood fixer do when he needs to downsize from a 5,200-square-foot house to one half its size? He hires a pro, of course.
In the kitchen and breakfast area, rich blue cabinets in Luna Pier by Dunn Edwards blend with warm gray countertops, as satin brass hardware and a split-finish chandelier add sheen. Before COVID hit, Howard Bragman had two houses and a spouse. Today the celebrity crisis manager, known for cleaning up some of Hollywood’s biggest messes, is single and living large in half the space he once had.
He found a two-story, 2,700-square-foot townhome in nearby Toluca Lake. It needed a total makeover — it hadn’t been updated since it was built in 1977 — but it had what he wanted: two bedrooms, a generous great room, a spacious outdoor terrace for entertaining and room for both an office and a gym. What it didn’t have: room for his extensive art and photography collection and his 5,200-square-feet worth of furniture.
Bragman, who sold his farmhouse when he bought the townhome, moved into an apartment while he, Grubb and architect Kenneth David Lee of KDL Architects worked on the remodel. Apart from the structure’s clean lines and high ceilings, all that remained were a few walls, the stair railing, a built-in bookcase, an office cabinet and the garage door.
