About this property

Carroll Avenue is a street in Angelino Heights, one of the older neighborhoods of Los Angeles. It consists of Victorian-era houses, and is located within a picturesque neighborhood that has served as the backdrop for countless motion pictures. Carroll Avenue is one of Los Angeles' first suburbs, and bears its name well, as it brings the city many tourists and visitors. The houses, or rather Victorian manors, are now used as private homes, as they were in the 19th century. Some of the more well known residents from the Victorian era include: merchant Aaron P. Philips in 1887, real estate agent Charles C. Haskin in 1894, and warehouse operator Michael Sanders in 1887. One of Los Angeles' first City Councilmen, Daniel Innes, resided at 1329 Carroll Avenue. The house at 1345 Carroll Avenue was used in the final scene of Michael Jackson's Thriller. The house at 1329 Carroll Avenue was used as the home for the main characters in the supernatural drama television series Charmed. The house at 1324 Carroll Avenue was used for the main home in Adam Sandler's 2006 comedy Grandma's Boy. The entire 1300 block of Carroll Avenue was listed under the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
