ooking like it just stepped out of the pages of a storybook—with
its ivy-clad, Tudor Revival-style façade—this striking Gerard
Colcord-designed estate in Beverly Hills exudes historic design
elements (think wood-beam ceilings, arched doorways, an
intricately crafted staircase, and black-and-white checkerboard
marble flooring) side by side with fully remodeled environs laden
with colorful, ultra-luxurious contemporary finishes, and a wealth
of pleasurable pursuits both inside and out.
"is home offers everything buyers are looking for today," says
Coldwell Banker's Steve Frankel, who is listing the eight-bedroom,
11-bath property for $19.8 million. "It provides a sense of old Beverly
Hills, coupled with modern, sexy interiors and every amenity for
today's lifestyle."
Originally built in 1928, the gated residence has since been
extensively expanded and redesigned with 11,000-plus square
feet of Jamesomas-designed living space on two levels. Stand-
ing out is an elegant living room with walls perfectly suited for an
art collection and French doors that open to the expansive yard, a
custom green-paneled screening room with fireplace, large, tempera-
ture-controlled wine closet, private office with built-ins and gym.
A gourmet kitchen showcases a French La Cornue range, massive
center island and separate light-filled breakfast room, while the lavish
master retreat is outfitted with a balcony, fireside seating area, duo of
spa-like baths (one with a chandelier and soaking tub, the other with
an oversized shower) and dual walk-in closets.
Absolutely not to be missed are the picturesque grounds, replete
with towering privacy hedges, a built-in barbecue, plentiful patios,
a sparkling pool and spa, and sports court. Adding to the home's
charisma: a two-story guest house featuring a full kitchen, four
bedrooms and two baths, as well as a four-car garage.
"is home is a rare find," says Frankel. "It's an ideal opportunity
to own a true trophy property in e Flats of Beverly Hills, in the
premier 700 block of Elm Drive."
Modern living spaces mix with charming touches of yester year
at this trophy propert y in e Flats of Beverly Hills.
