Classic Greek Revival Style designed by Theodore Eisen, Walker & Eisen Architects for Mrs. Jeanette Donovan in 1910. Documents show that Architect Frank Meline added servants quarters, a garage and other alterations in 1920. The house is popularly known as the "Sunshine House"; it was once the West Coast home of Reverend Dr. Harwood Huntington, an Episcopalian Minister from New Haven, Connecticut. His wife, Grace Beecher Goodhue Huntington, was the daughter of Charles Leonard Goodhue, of the Pullman Train Car Company.
Located at 419 S. Lorraine Blvd. in the Hancock Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. Alternatively referred to as the "Evans Residence" Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 1973 (No. 115) and ""Davidson-Evans House" (Windsor Square-Hancock Park Landmark No. 27).
