Situated high on the hill with expansive views of Silver Lake and to the west, the Spanish Colonial Revival style home was the residence of Aimee Semple McPherson (1890-1944), a colorful Pentecostal evangelist and Founder of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel. On the advice of neighbors, I originally identified this home as a Paul Williams design, however in checking the building permits, I now realize my mistake. Nevertheless, I hope that everyone concerned will appreciate this lovely home that has the 'look' of a Paul Williams home of the period. The McPherson Residence is located at 1982 Micheltorena Street in the Moreno Highlands of Silver Lake, situated at the top of a gated, private drive and has magnificent sprawling lawns, mature landscaping and a pool with approximately 4,000 square feet of living space situated on over 16,000 sq. feet of grounds.
