The Magnificent House on the Corner
Phillips House

Here's a description of the Phillips House from the L.A. Conservancy website:
"Built in 1887, the imposing Phillips House was likely a project of local real estate developers George O. Ford and James B. Myer...
The house’s first owner was Aaron Phillips, an Iowa hardware merchant who came to Los Angeles in 1887. His wife, Maria, and daughter, Grace, had traveled to Los Angeles a year earlier to scout the area... Grace lived in the house until 1942, when her heirs sold the property to the current owner’s family.
One of the most ornate homes in Angelino Heights, the Phillips House blends two Victorian styles. The sharp angles, in both the shape of the house and its geometric decoration, typify the Eastlake style, while the overall decorative exuberance reflects the Queen Anne style."
