Well, you picked a great day to [drive around] SoCal--mid to upper 70's today, and very clear with bright sun!
This is a great 'gem' and so symbolic of SoCal in the 20's-30's.
And for those who live there today--it has great ratings!
There is a village called Ancelle, in the mountains of S/E France; I am sure there must be a nexus, to the person who developed this property, in the Roaring Twenties.
