Whitley Court, Queen Anne style house in Hollywood, Los Angeles, United States.

Whitley Court is a cluster of Spanish Colonial bungalows built between 1903 and 1919 just north of Hollywood Boulevard. The first structure was a two-story Colonial Revival house with a round bay turret, designed by Dennis & Farwell for the Whitley family; it was moved to the back of the property to make room for four additional two-story residential buildings.

The original building was constructed in 1903 for the Whitley family and was later moved to allow space for four additional houses. This transformation made it an important record of early Hollywood's growth and development in this neighborhood.

Residents are said to have included Theda Bara in the 1920s and Sylvia Sidney in the 1930s, actresses housed in buildings put up for film-industry workers. The complex's name comes from the Whitley family, for whom Dennis & Farwell designed the first house in 1903.

The property sits along Whitley Avenue where it can be viewed from the street. The buildings function as residential and office units following a 1974 conversion of the original structures.

During the 1992 Los Angeles riots, residents used water hoses to protect the buildings as flames approached nearby. This act of community defense represents a memorable moment in the complex's history.
