Something along the lines of this:

BK, is this a Floral Park house? And if so... a neo-Mediterranean bungalow design?</blockquote>

I tried to get the specific name of the architectural style but I think it's just too recent (last 100 years) a design to get it's own historical write up on the interwebs. Looking at pictures of old Greek, Italian, and Spanish houses, it's a pretty common design in the Mediterranean area. I'm positive it's original influence was Arabic but the centuries have mutated it into what you see in Hollywood, probably a nod to the Spanish Colonial Revival style that was popular in 20's/30's L.A.
