You Can Rent A Room Inside This Famous Hobbit Home

These “Hobbit Houses” were designed and built between 1946 and 1970 by Lawrence Joseph, an artist who worked for Disney and Lockheed.

Although we wish this property was located in “Middle Earth”, it is only a couple blocks from the world-famous Sony Studios in Los Angeles, CA. Iconic films like “The Wizard of Oz,” “Men in Black” and “Spider-Man” have been filmed at the studio.

“Joseph redesigned an existing single-family residence and added two two-story buildings with multiple units. An expert carpenter and sailor, he also created nautically themed interiors for the three buildings.”
