Frederick Mitchell Mooers House, Victorian residence in Westlake, Los Angeles, United States.

The Frederick Mitchell Mooers House features a three-story tower with an elongated domed roof, wraparound porch, and central round-arched entrance at 818 South Bonnie Brae Street.

Built in 1894 for May Gertrude Wright, the mansion was purchased in 1898 by Frederick Mooers, a successful gold mine prospector who struck wealth at Yellow Aster mine.

The residence incorporates Victorian architectural elements, combining Queen Anne, Richardsonian Romanesque, and Moorish Revival styles with hand-carved woodwork and embossed leather walls.

The property achieved National Register of Historic Places status in 1976 and maintains its function as a private residence in the South Bonnie Brae Historic District.

The estate sparked a notable inheritance dispute after Mooers' death in 1900, with his estranged wife receiving one-sixth of the $755,050 fortune.

Location: California

Architectural style: Moorish Revival architecture
