About this single-family home
Introducing an ultra-private, irreplaceable Beverly Hills compound where endless opportunities await developers and discerning buyers alike. This 1927 English Manor, built by a prominent movie producer, epitomizes timeless elegance and masterful craftsmanship, where no detail was spared. Acquired in 1940, this classic residence boasts irreplaceable provenance - diamond tongue-and-groove first-growth redwood ceilings, and an imported English brick facade. Remaining within the same family for over 80 years, this classic manor stands as a testament to its enduring craftsmanship. Cocooned in unparalleled privacy, the sprawling grounds present an incredible oasis spanning a full acre. Nearly half of this comprises sublime, lushly landscaped flat usable land, allowing for additions such as an ADU in the southeast corner of the front yard. Mature fruit-bearing persimmon, orange, and Magnolia grandiflora trees grace the front manor grounds. Beyond lies an expansive hillside offering myriad possibilities. A crowning hilltop presents an ideal location for a small yoga or meditation platform, a writer's studio, or simply a space to bask in breathtaking 360-degree preserved mountain views. Other options for this area include a vineyard or orchard, maximizing the property's potential. With its sprawling hilltop promontory, historically significant architecture unable to be recreated today, and versatile spaces for modern amenities, this estate reigns as one of Beverly Hills' most unique compound opportunities. A true legacy property where ornate provenance and a remarkably vast land offering transcend any comparable estate's value.
