Pictured is an exterior view of the former home of actor Errol Flynn. The home is mostly obscured by trees and bushes. A fence can be seen at lower left. In 1941, Flynn built a two-story, country-style home on an 11.5- acre plot of land off of Mulholland Drive and called it "Mulholland Farm." The home was located at 7740 Mulholland Drive. The property was sold in 1959 and again in 1980 to singer Ricky Nelson. After Nelson's death in 1985, the home sat vacant until 1988 when a developer subdivided the land and tore down the original home. Errol Flynn was born on June 20, 1909 in Tasmania. He was an actor known for his romantic swashbuckler roles in Hollywood films and for his playboy lifestyle. After leaving Australia, Flynn spent time in England, seeking acting roles. He traveled to the United States in 1934 and signed with Warner Brothers Studio. He became an instant celebrity after the release of his first American film, Captain Blood.
