When Manheim and Cercone bought their first personal residence—built in the 20’s for silent film star, Helen Twelvetrees—it was an abandoned, graffiti-covered crash-pad. With little funding and even less expertise, the couple rolled up their sleeves and personally restored the crumbling edifice to its former Old Hollywood-Hills glamour. As for the 12 X 12 foot beehive discovered in the kitchen wall? The couple had honey for years!
