nspired by the work of noted resort architect Addison Mizner, the
former 1960's-era estate of late songstress Peggy Lee was reimagined
by its current owner during a three-and-a-half-year span in keeping
with the original home's footprint. Expect materials sourced from around
the globe, from an antique chandelier found in a London flea market
gracing a soaring, two-story foyer to a large stone fireplace hand-crafted
in Paris in the great room. And that's not all: In the kitchen is a brick
ceiling hailing from an old home in Northern Italy and stone flooring
from the South of France, while the master bath showcases walls and
columns inlaid with hand-cut mother of pearl from the Indian Ocean.
e crescendo? A 2,000-square-foot wraparound terrace offering jetliner
city and ocean views from one of the only cul-de-sacs in Bel-Air.
"Set behind private gates, and surrounded by lush hedges and ivy-covered
porticos, this spectacular villa soars above the city lights," says Jon Grauman,
director of e Agency's estates division, who is co-listing the property with
Billy Rose, president and co-founder of e Agency, for $9.495 million.
"is romantic, stately residence was stunningly reimagined with materials
from around the world and installed by master craftsmen."
Situated at 11404 Bellagio Road—in sought-after Lower Bel-Air—
the five-bedroom abode features 6,000-plus square feet of living space.
Among the highlights is an elegant formal dining room with rich
hardwood flooring and the home's original fireplace that flows via a
butler's pantry to a chef 's kitchen complete with unfinished Venetian
plaster walls; a barrel-vaulted ceiling of hand-laid tile imported from
a storied Italian estate; antique flooring from a historic villa in the
South of France; a free-standing Calacatta marble slab island; dining
area; and Wolf and Miele appliances. Yet other show-stopping details
include a temperature-controlled wine room; large screening room; and
sumptuous master retreat.
Massive French doors open to a lush backyard replete with a European-
style pool and spa with water feature, along with the aforementioned
view terrace that can accommodate a large number of guests for a seated
dinner. And rounding out this home's allure is a sports court, as well as
numerous terraced entertaining spaces.
