Description
Designed by Elmer Grey, the visionary architect behind the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel, this extraordinary Tudor Revival estate is a rare generational offering tucked behind private gates in prestigious Lower Bel Air. Originally completed in 1926, the residence spans 18,861 SF of finished living space, including an 8,825 SF main house, a 7,132 SF guest house, and a 2,005 SF staff/security house, all enhancing the grandeur and versatility of this landmark estate. Spanning over 2 acres of exquisite park-like grounds, this is an unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of history, an estate of grand proportions where the possibilities for preservation, expansion, or reimagining are truly limitless. With a landscape of unrivaled scale and beauty, the property unfolds like a private countryside retreat. Rolling hills and sprawling lawns, framed by towering mature trees of varying species and tranquil walking trails, set an enchanting backdrop rarely found in the city. At the heart of the estate, expansive stone terraces, verdant lawns, and intimate patios provide seamless transitions between the grand residence and the breathtaking surroundings. Two sun-drenched pools, resort-style lounge areas, a professional sport court with 2 studios/2 bath, and an enchanting walking bridge add to the estate's endless grounds. Steeped in elegance, the grand Tudor-style main house preserves its rich architectural heritage while offering a canvas for modern refinement. Inside, coffered wood-paneled walls, exquisite stone fireplaces, and soaring vaulted ceilings with rich, original wood beams set a tone of stately grandeur throughout the estate. Diamond leaded windows flood the interiors with natural light, framing sweeping views of the estate's lush surroundings. Designed for entertaining, the residence features a formal dining room, an cozy library that extends to a grand outdoor terrace, and multiple living areas that seamlessly connect to the gardens. The upper-level primary suite wing is an indulgent private retreat, complete with a balcony, a vanity hallway reminiscent of Hollywood's golden era, multiple walk-in closets, and dual bathrooms. An intimate sitting room with a private bar and upstairs dining area adds to the suite's distinction. 2 additional en-suite guest rooms complete this level, while a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom staff quarter ensures seamless household operations.Beyond the main residence, the estate boasts an array of private guest accommodations and specialty structures, ensuring flexibility and privacy across the grounds. The Guest House Villa is a self-contained home with ample en-suite bedrooms for guest and staff, a formal living room with a wet bar, and a spacious kitchen and dining room, all complemented by multiple gathering spaces. French doors open to an expansive private patio, perfect for hosting, complete with its own outdoor bathrooms and a separate pool.Enhancing both accessibility and privacy, the estate is also thoughtfully designed with two separate gated driveway entrances. Additionally, 235 St. Pierre, directly neighboring the estate, is also available, offering the option to acquire an unprecedented 3.8-acre legacy estate in one of the most prestigious enclaves in the city. A property of this magnitude is more than a residence it is a statement of history, scale, and exclusivity, an opportunity that will likely never be replicated.
