The residence and stables are both protected Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monuments . After the house was damaged by the 1994 Northridge earthquake , the property was completely renovated . The estate is next to the very large 1845 Mexican land grant Rancho El Escorpión , which was his southern rural viewshed and remained undeveloped open space until 1959 . The home and grounds are still in the hands of the family
