Property Description
First time on the market since built by an engineer for his own family, this gated contemporary masterpiece north of Sunset in prime Beverly Hills draws inspiration from Richard Meier and the iconic Hotel del Coronado to offer approximately 9,525 square feet of refined architectural living. Recently reimagined to blend modern geometry with timeless craftsmanship, the residence features a dramatic glass and stone entry with a sweeping spiral staircase, soaring ceilings, and expansive windows framing unobstructed views from Downtown to Palos Verdes all without a lengthy hilltop drive. The floorplan offers unparalleled flexibility, particularly on the expansive, light-filled lower level; featuring a private secondary entry, this space is ideally suited to create multiple additional bedroom suites, a high-tech wellness center, or a fully independent guest wing. This adaptability, combined with a main-floor primary sanctuary and staff quarters, makes the estate uniquely prepared for multi-generational living or high-profile hosting. Perfectly positioned for the global stage, the home offers immediate access to major transportation arteries, providing a seamless commute to upcoming world-class events including the World Cup at SoFi Stadium and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. Luxury amenities abound, including a gourmet Viking and Sub-Zero kitchen, a 500+ bottle wine cellar, a full-service elevator, and a 5-car collector's garage with a motor court. The resort-like grounds unfold with a dark-bottom infinity pool, dual spas designed for cold plunges, a sport court, and a citrus orchard, all supported by rigorous infrastructure such as a commercial backup generator and 5-zone HVAC. This is a rare opportunity to own a legacy estate that balances the privacy of a quiet cul-de-sac with the strategic connectivity required for the future of Los Angeles.
