Inside the Charming Country Bungalow Dolly Parton Used to Call Home
The delightful Dolly Parton started her country music career at just thirteen years old, and moved to Nashville the day after graduating from Sevier County High School in 1964. She became a successful songwriter, and eventually a hit artist in her own right. Decades later, Dolly Parton is still writing and performing, as well as raising money for multiple charitable causes. Naturally, the country queen has amassed plenty of property – let’s check out the charming West Hollywood bungalow Dolly used to call home.
Welcome to West Hollywood
Dolly Parton used to live in this compact and almost compound-like cottage in West Hollywood. The extensively fenced and gated property was listed at 1091 square feet, and has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. For an A list celeb, that’s pretty petite!
The “Coat of Many Colors” singer purchased this cute bungalow in 2007 for the cool price of $1.2 million. Hey – it is Hollywood after all. When listed some years later, the entertainer was asking for $1.4 million. Good investment!
Through the Grand Entrance
In order to enter Dolly Parton’s former West Hollywood bungalow, guests would pass through a private garden area towards this arch. The home has several unique details, including this beautiful bronze sun above the entryway.
Turquoise lamps hang on either side of the house’s front entrance, giving the whole area a playful desert vibe. The multiple plants and colorful pots reveal the warmth and friendliness of the singer’s home, which continues throughout each room. For some it might be cluttered, but for us, it’s utterly charming.
Minty Green and Light Wood
We’ve already seen that Dolly Parton likes light wood window shutters, and who can blame her? Honestly, these shutters remind us of an idyllic fairytale scene where animated birds chirp outside a window as a princess sings sweetly inside. That’s what Dolly’s life is like, right?
This kitchen certainly nods to the 1950s, especially with its pastel mint cabinets. This color doesn’t seem to pop up elsewhere, but we like the retro vibe it adds to this room.
Oozing with Country Charm
Let’s take a closer look at Dolly Parton’s former kitchen from a different angle. As you can see, and as you should have expected, the singer and actress’s kitchen chairs are actually primped up with gingham seat covers. We love it!
From what we can see, the country star has a floral breadbox, some casual pink napkin rings, and a blushing hanging light fixture with multiple pink lamps. Clearly, in this country kitchen, it’s Dolly’s world and we just live in it.
