Inside Zooey Deschanel and Fiance Jonathan Scott’s Renovated Los Angeles Home: See Photos!

Property Brothers  star  Jonathan Scott   and actress  Zooey Deschanel   spent two years renovating their California home, and it turned out absolutely perfect. 

“This is a house that suits our tastes and needs, aesthetically and functionally,” the  New Girl  actress gushed about their gorgeous space in the new issue of  Drew + Jonathan Reveal , available on newsstands, on Amazon and online now. “Jonathan is so amazing at figuring that out. He’s been doing it for his clients for so long, and now, he’s done that for us and our family.”

Deal of the Day

Jonathan and Zooey — who announced their engagement in August 2023 — first viewed the property in spring 2020. The home is located in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles. The five-bedroom home was built in 1938 and designed by iconic old Hollywood architect  Gerard Colcord . 

“As soon as we pulled into the driveway, we knew this house was special,” the  Elf  actress said about their first impression of the property. Jonathan added that Zooey’s two children, daughter Elsie and son Charlie, whom she shares with ex-husband  Jacob Pechenik , approved of the “beautiful home.”

Jonathan + Zooey’s New Home!

After two years of renovations on the Park House, Jonathan and Zooey are finally ready to give you a tour of their new home. From sustainable features to perfectly picked wallpaper, not one detail was overlooked.

For Jonathan and Zooey, it was love at first sight. “As soon as we pulled into the driveway, we knew this house was special,” says Zooey. “It was a beautiful home with a lot of history,” adds Jonathan. The two first viewed the five-bedroom Georgian revival in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles in the spring of 2020.

Built in 1938 by acclaimed architect Gerard Colcord, the home had a traditional sensibility that appealed to the pair of old-home lovers. The exterior, with its white wooden siding, contrasting dark shutters, and porch columns, led to an expansive lawn that was dotted with sycamore trees and a rose garden that was planted 60 years ago. “When we brought the kids here, they asked, ‘Are we living in a park?’ ” Jonathan says. So that summer, when he and Zooey closed on the property, they dubbed it the Park House.

Now, after two years of diligent work, the couple have completed their renovation. “It was really hands-on for both of us,” Zooey says. “Many Saturdays, we sat searching for the right details to add to this home.”

They played to their strengths. Zooey focused on the interior finishes, creating “dope-ass tile and upholstery” pin boards that included patterns of Portuguese tiles and Moroccan fabrics. Jonathan, meanwhile, focused on the construction and architectural details.

As much as possible, the couple tried to preserve the original look and feel of the house “to pay homage to the architect and what was intended with the property,” says Jonathan. Gerard Colcord, often called Hollywood’s “society architect,” was known for shying away from the Modernist style and designing classic homes often inhabited by celebrities—a long list that includes Dean Martin and Harrison Ford. “With two choppy additions in the ’70s and ’80s, the home no longer functioned well by current standards,” says Jonathan.

What ensued was a series of swaps and upgrades , beginning with the facade, which wasn’t up to modern fire-safety codes. Jonathan replaced the white wooden siding with brick and wrapped the exterior in Rockwool insulation, a fire-resistant material that also helps to stabilize the interior temperature.

To give visitors a grand first impression, the couple turned the single-height entryway with a curved staircase into a double-height one with a traditional stair, featuring an iron handrail and Moroccan-style runner. They added custom millwork and a vintage chandelier to reflect the period in which the home was built.

“It still looks like it could be a 100-year-old home, but it’s now LEED-certified and will end up using less grid energy than a small apartment,” Jonathan says. Keeping the home’s carbon footprint in check are Tesla solar roof tiles (one of the largest installations the company has done), a robust battery-storage system, a Carrier all-electric VRF heat pump HVAC system, gray-water recycling from baths and sinks to use for toilets and irrigation (which reduces water consumption by 40 percent), and nine Span smart panels that run every electrical circuit in the house (monitoring the energy consumption of each appliance). “This isn’t just a smart house,” says Jonathan. “It’s a genius one.”

Just as much careful attention was paid to the outdoor spaces . Where there was once an ordinary patio, there is now “my favorite room in the whole house,” Jonathan says. The solarium, a feature Zooey had always dreamed of, has an elegant glass ceiling, a fountain, olive trees, and a balcony that connects to each bedroom.

Given the odd shape of that side of the house, its construction required a little architectural sleight of hand, namely building out a new section to even it out. “Jonathan knows whether an idea is practical or not,” Zooey says. “And he knew just how to turn this patio on the asymmetrical side of the house into a solarium.”

After two long years of stops and starts, supply-chain delays, and shipment mishaps, finally finding themselves in their dream house is a mixture of disbelief, relief, and unadulterated joy. “This is a house that suits our tastes and needs, aesthetically and functionally,” says Zooey. “Jonathan is so amazing at figuring that out. He’s been doing it for his clients for so long, and now he’s done that for us and our family.”

Wait, There’s More!

Tour 'Property Brothers' Star Drew Scott and Linda Phan's Cozy LA Home

After a destination wedding in Italy and now a global pandemic stemming from the coronavirus [...]

By Tania Hussain - September 6, 2020 04:33 pm EDT

After a destination wedding in Italy and now a global pandemic stemming from the coronavirus outbreak, Property Brothers star, Drew Scott and his wife, Linda Phan have been spending a lot more time in their sweet California home. Giving fans a glimpse of their cozy digs care of the HGTV special episode Property Brothers at Home: Drew's Honeymoon House , the pair are letting fans in to see their most fabulous renovation yet.

Featuring five-bedrooms and four baths that he and Scott's twin brother Jonathan fully renovated together, the site is also home to their new podcast series, At Home With Linda & Drew , which explores home as the foundation of life. Established as the spot where we build values and habits essential to our relationships and behaviors, Scott and Phan aim to "share more intimate aspects of home" that go beyond design with their podcast series, exploring what really makes a house a home as they told PopCulture.com earlier this summer .

As you download the latest episode of At Home here via Apple Podcasts , take a peek inside their couple's hot new digs that also doubles as their podcast studio. Check out photos, courtesy of HGTV of the gorgeous house below!

Located in Los Angeles, California, the Tudor-style house has been heavily renovated on the inside. Scott and Phan said they knew the 97-year-old build was "the one" the moment they saw it.

Living Room

The first floor features a living room, kitchen and dining room that are all connected through airy open spaces. The fireplace along the back wall was originally planned to be removed, but Phan and Scott told HGTV Magazine they've grown to like the "house shaped" design.

Scott and Phan told the magazine they had a goal of making the kitchen as large and welcoming as possible. "One of the first things we decided was to move the kitchen closer to the living room and expand it so it could truly be the hub of our home," Scott said.

Office Space

Scott's home office was described by the magazine as a combination of "modern and traditional," complete with a dark blue paint scheme with gold accents, a chesterfield-style wingback chair and a dark brown desk.

Master Bedroom

The master bedroom comes complete with ornate lighting, a black fireplace on the wall opposite the bed and French doors to the master bathroom. "Two words: sexy and cool," Phan said .

Master Bathroom

The couple's master bathroom features an arabesque tile pattern, his and hers dual sinks and a black standing tub that sits in front of a walk-in shower.

Dining Terrace

Whenever the couple want to entertain guests, they can have them over for dinner on their outdoor dining terrace.

Rooftop Deck

One of the house's coolest features is its rooftop deck, which includes a dining table, sitting area and a hot tub.

The dining terrace leads out to the house's backyard which features a fire pit, a swimming pool and plush couches.

There's still a lot of work left to be done.

The Los Angeles house was built in 1921, and hasn't been renovated, so there's a lot of work for them to do. So far, they have gotten rid of lead and asbestos in the house—and also got rid of a lot of tacky wallpaper. (Though Linda definitely has a soft spot for the stuff.) But the rest of the house is basically a blank slate.

And the house has a lot of personal history, too. Linda told a story about how the previous owner, 71 years ago, was born in that house, on the living room floor. It turns out her mother didn't want to keep going to the hospital early in her labor, and didn't quite make it to the doctor in time.

Drew says the renovation is his chance to put a personal touch on a home. "I love it, because we love helping other families, but we are renovating houses for them," Drew said, "but at least here, I can put all the bells and whistles that I want in the house." And that includes a crafting room for Linda, because "she's a craft-o-maniac," Drew says, along with built-in storage because "I like to organize for fun." Looks like a match made in heaven.

11 Items The Property Brothers Think Every House Should Have

The Property Brothers, Drew and Jonathan Scott, have been inspiring HGTV viewers with their gorgeous yet totally livable designs for years. These engaging brothers have tips to help your home reach its fullest, and most beautiful, design potential. The good news is that these tips are universal to any decorating style, so you can put your own unique touch on them to give your home a glow-up that reflects what you love.

In designing hundreds of homes and creating beautiful decor products, Drew and Scott know a lot about what every house should have. These essentials for your home are more than just eye candy, as all of these ideas have a purpose beyond them. Whether you're selecting the right couch, choosing a functional coffee table, or upgrading your laundry room, these must-haves can transform your home into your dream space. By making just a few changes, you can spark your imagination and inspire a new vision of your home's aesthetic.

1. Decor that's bold in all the right ways

Take a cue from The Property Brothers and reserve daring decisions for decor that can be easily changed. Drew cautions that when it comes to big projects,  bold design choices can become a headache down the road. He explains to Insider , "If you go bold and show your personality, do it in areas that are easy to swap out, like throws or accent chairs or artwork instead of something that's a big ticket item, like the color of your cabinets or your countertops."

Large-scale features like walls and flooring are best in neutral supporting roles to your bold design vision. The good news is that this doesn't mean all beiges and browns. Black, white, and gray, can also act as the perfect backdrop for vivid decor. Then, add that funky throw, patterned pillows, or bright seating pouf with the confidence that you can easily swap them out when you're ready.

2. Every living room needs a great coffee table

There's no better way to spark a makeover design for your living room, than buying a new (and fabulous) coffee table. "Quick and easy changes like swapping in a great new coffee table can make a big impact," according to The Property Brothers' Drew & Jonathan blog. The piece can become a focal point in the space, so it's important to choose a style you love and that works well with what you already have.

Living rooms can also be pretty active, so functionality and the way you use the room should also be a consideration. Innovations like lift-top tables can add valuable storage space. And, modular pieces that can be separated are perfect for spacing around sectionals when needed. Using an ottoman as a coffee table is still an on-trend style, and their soft corners make them an ideal choice for homes with children.

3. Floor lamps for ambience and task lighting

Getting your lighting right in any room is essential to creating the right mood or supporting your activities. The Property Brothers are all about flexible lighting and creating an impact. According to their blog post , "Nothing against overhead lighting, but we can't overstate how a few floor and table lamps instantly up a room's homeyness factor...With so many different body types available (textured! smooth! transparent! stick!), you're sure to find something that works with your decor, and a fun shade can help make a statement."   

The secret to beautifully lighting any space  is layering your light sources. Most rooms feature overhead lighting as a standard feature. Table lamps are popular in interior design because they add color and can effortlessly express your style for the room. Floor lamps add another layer with their unique blend of style and function and are up to any lighting task. Ones with gorgeous designs can even work like decorative art in your space. Plus, with their small footprint, they can be tucked behind a sofa, next to a chair or chaise, and in any corner needing more light.

4. Smart home features that make life easier

The Property Brothers believe in technology that can make your home more secure, more comfortable, and more fun. "Whether it's creating more safety with health and security solutions, energy-saving features that reduce monthly bills, or even just cool entertainment innovations that are fun to play with," Drew tells the Future of Business and Tech , "Smart solutions are helping families get more out of their homes."

From standard bulbs to mountable strips, lighting can open up entirely new ways of enjoying and even decorating your home. These can be controlled by an app to adjust their brightness and colors to fully customize the ambiance of a room. Options like behind-the-TV lights can be set to react to sound, turning any room into a multimedia experience.

Smart thermostats are another way to bridge cost-savings and convenience. These allow you to set a schedule and control the temperature in your home from anywhere via an app. Plus, most units have an energy-saving mode that automatically detects when you're away from home and adjusts the HVAC system accordingly to save energy costs.

5. A dining room banquette to maximize seating and comfort

The Property Brothers are unabashed fans of banquettes and dining nooks. Though the seating has retro charm, it can be tailored to any decorating style through its design and materials. In their Scott Brothers blog, Jonathan and Drew shared why these are a hot design feature again saying, "More and more, our renovations on HGTV include a solution to these issues: the dining nook. Some homes already have one but with uncomfortable, dated seating and inadequate lighting. Some have a kitchen space just begging for one. We see them as opportunities for sharing space and time, not to mention storing your stuff under the built-in seating."

Comfort is a major consideration when planning to add bench seating to a dining area. Unless you're buying pre-made seating with cushions, you'll want to purchase ones that fit or have custom ones made. Either option allows you to personalize your banquette with stylish patterns that enhance your home's color scheme.

You can also capture the charm of banquette seating by replacing two to three chairs with a bench. This dining nook hack works best for seating that backs up to a wall, to give it a true banquette vibe. Choosing a bench with storage gives you a perfect spot to stash linens or rarely-used serving pieces.

6. A sectional sofa that brings everyone together

Drew Scott sees sectional sofas as gathering spaces. In an interview with Realtor.com , he shared why the seating option is essential, "No home is complete without a really great sectional that you can adapt to your space to make it perfect. Picture get-togethers with family and friends, movie nights with the family, whatever you're doing, it makes it feel like home." 

Sectional-style sofas have become the top choice for consumers, coming out ahead of traditional couches and loveseats. Comfort and flexible configuration make them a natural choice for gathering spaces. The shape can encourage interaction by allowing for face-to-face conversations and the flexibility to accommodate more people. 

Planning out your set-up is important before purchasing. So, measure your space and use painter's tape on the floor to outline the footprint of any pieces you're considering. This will allow you to better visualize the set-up and flow of the room. Other pieces of furniture can further enhance the perks. Look for accent chairs or poufs to place opposite the couch to make the set-up even more gathering-ready. You'll also want to ensure there is a table accessible to every seat.

7. Flooring that flows throughout the home

The Property Brothers are fans of using the same flooring throughout spaces to enhance flow. "I have a rule: You should never see more than two types of flooring from any one place in your home," Jonathan explains to Realtor.com . One way to make this possible is by choosing flooring that can handle dry and wet environments, making it suitable for the entire home. Engineered Vinyl Plank (EVP) is a popular any-room product because of its wood-like appearance and water-resistant properties.   

It can also be practical to vary flooring in some rooms in consideration of moisture and traffic, like mud rooms and bathrooms. When you're mixing flooring types, keeping a cohesive look can be as simple as echoing a similar color or pattern. For example, if you have a light oak floor throughout the living areas, look for a ceramic tile in a similar shade for the bathroom. Or, if you want carpet in the bedrooms, opt for a similar shade as any hard flooring to maintain a more continuous feel.

8. An entrance that sets your house apart

Your foyer or entryway is the perfect opportunity for creating a warm welcome. According to the Property Brothers in a recent blog post , "When you live in a neighborhood that's a sea of similar-looking homes, you want to stand out with your very first impression." 

No matter the size of the space, you can make it wow guests. A statement-making rug can give the space definition. This is especially helpful in an open-concept home where the entryway is loosely defined. Ones designed for both indoor and outdoor use are durable and add function in high-traffic areas. They also come in tons of designs and colors to make a statement in the space.

Lighting is another important component of a well-designed entryway. Many foyers have chandeliers that set the tone for the space. Revamp an existing light fixture with spray paint or swap it out to reflect your current style. If your entryway doesn't have a ceiling fixture, set up a console table with two table lamps flanking a mirror to create a welcoming glow. 

9. A great vibe that pulls everything together

Surrounding yourself with what you love, and choosing colors and decor that make you feel good, is a must-have according to the Property Brothers. "No home is complete without the perfect vibe," Jonathan tells Realtor.com . Drew adds, " It's really nice when you walk into a space and the moment you walk in, you see the personality of the people who live there — that's what I love. I mean, if you have that little bit of glam or that little classic style, and that's what you see when you walk into that space, it's perfect." 

Getting to know your personal style is the first step to making sure your home aligns with what you love. Start by noticing what you really gravitate toward, including colors and brands. Then, create a mood board with images you love, which will help you define your style. It will also give you a visual reference for making design decisions like paint colors and furniture purchases. Apps like Pinterest make the process easy and will give you tons of inspiration. 

Once you've created a base for your decor, it's time to add unique items to express your personal style.  Visiting local art shows and maker's markets is a great way to source unique pieces that speak to you. You can also inject your personality into a space with framed photos, your collection of vacation souvenirs, and artfully displayed family heirlooms .

10. Closet organizers that keep things together behind the scenes

Some think that design is all about looks and forget about function. However, The Property Brothers are known for blending aesthetics and top-notch functionality. "Storage is everything," Jonathan shared with Architectural Digest . He explained, "If you add some open shelves, drawers, and double racks for storage, you wouldn't believe how much you can get into one small, standard closet. The systems look clean, and they're also modernizing your closets."

It isn't necessary to have a large closet or an entire room to enjoy the advantages of a closet organizer. The most important element in any closet organizer is identifying what your unique storage needs are, and incorporating them into your system. An organizer designed for your closet may need room for your collection of dresses and shoes. This means hanging racks with plenty of clearance and cubes for footwear are ideal. However, if you're planning an organizer for a kid's closet, easy-to-access components like bins, hooks, and drawers are super useful.

You have two options for creating a closet organizing system. The first is working with a company that specializes in the design and installation. Your second option is to DIY your closet system. If you choose this route, it's essential that you begin with exact measurements. Then, you can use tools like IKEA's PAX system planner to create a custom system and purchase the components you need.

11. High tech in the laundry room to maximize your time

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jonathan Silver Scott (@jonathanscott)

Technology has made homes smarter and more efficient, and now innovation is making a splash in the laundry room. Appliance designers are introducing features that make laundry more efficient and enjoyable. Washers and dryers have been given a high-tech update with the capability to pair them with apps. These can track the progress of laundry loads and offer alerts like when it's time to switch wet clothes to the dryer.

New high-tech laundry room appliances , like clothes refreshers, can minimize the energy and time needed for running a washing and drying cycle. Jonathan shared the benefits of the LG Styler Steam Closet in his Instagram post, "you can de-wrinkle, you can iron, you can also put in the kids' stuffed toys [to] sanitize those." Clothes refreshers operate with no chemicals, and some offer an app for remote start and other features, making them a great companion to your laundry routine.

Traveler Reviews

I cant recommend this tour highly enough. I asked a friend to recommend one thing to do with limited time in Moscow and he said, check out the metro. I did one better, and went on this individual tour yesterday with my very well informed guide, Alina. She took me to a number of stations and explained the history, politics and meanings behind the different sculpures and artworks in a way that made the whole experience far more meaningful than getting on and off the metro without guidance would have done. I had a really fantastic time and was thoroughly impressed. To top it all off, we had lunch and Alina suggested some great things for me to do, even whatsapping me maps, suggestions, and internet links. Today she followed up by messaging me to ask how my day was going and if I had any questions about the city, or recommendations for places to eat, etc. A great tour, a lovely guide and a fantastic experience. I couldnt recommend this tour, or Alina, any more highly. Fantastic!

Dear Friends,

My son and myself visited Moscow for a holiday in April 2018. And we had selected this fantastic tour. Our Guide Mrs. Julia came sharp at 10.00 AM even though she was not feeling well and had sore throat. Thereafter she took us to many Metro stations. Though I had already visited Moscow last year and seen all these stations, she gave phenomenal historic background and many interesting facts. She was almost fluent in English and and a good knowledge of Russian Culture, food and many other things. Overall we enjoyed thoroughly and I will highly recommend this tour with Julia if possible. Truly amazing person. And even more amazing tour.

Our Tour booked for 26 December 2017 was absolutely amazing. Our guide Julia picked us up from our Hotel in St Peterburg on time in a luxury minivan. Thanks to Julia we were able to see most of the tourist attractions that day. She went out of her way for us to make our day special. She had a vast knowledge of all the places that we visited. Lunch was special in a typical Russian restaurant with food from the region. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Picked up in the hotel lobby by our guide, Lylie, who then walked us to the closest Metro. She walked/trained us to 13 different stations and then explained the history of the metro and the significance of the decor in each station. We had plenty of time to photo, view the decor, watch and ride the trains and observe the people coming and going with their daily affairs. The art work/mosaics/sculptures/stained glass/ marble all had a role to play in presenting the history of communist Russia. The Russian metro well deserves the title of the most interesting and outstanding metro in the world. Lylie then took us to lunch, advised us on menu choices and their significance in the Russian culture and was very happy answering our questions on how the younger generation is responding to the new Russia. We had an outstanding guide, a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this tour over and above other tours which merely include a visit to a small number of stations.

Great guide! She explained everything and took me to all the important stations. She knew her stuff! Worth it!

Our guide ,Dacha, was charming and very informative. We took the 2 hour tour and saw what Dacha thought were the most beautiful and interesting metro stations. The Metro is certainly worthy of its museum status and we were glad to have some of the designs and features explained to us.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.
