The historic Van Griffith estate, a Los Feliz compound built by the son of Griffith Park benefactor Griffith J. Griffith, is on the market for $8.3 million.

Past the arched front door, the main residence features classic tilework, rich hardwood floors and a speakeasy — a feature sometimes incorporated into homes built during Prohibition. The living room and master bedroom open to balconies facing the cityscape. Three additional bedrooms, an office and a modernized kitchen fill out the floor plan.The estate has changed hands four times over the last decade: in 2004 for $2.

8 million; in 2011 for $4.55 million; in 2014 for $6 million; and in 2018 for $7.75 million, records show.Griffith, a mining tycoon, acquired Rancho Los Feliz in the early 1880s with the intention of selling the scenic hillside plots to home buyers but found little market for the land that some believed was haunted. In 1896, Griffith ceded most of the rancho to the city of Los Angeles, which turned it into one of the country’s largest urban parks.
