LIST PRICE $19.5 MILLION
Completely rebuilt from the
ground up by noted architects Luis Ortega
and Jose Fernandez in 2005, this Tuscan-
inspired villa in Beverly Hills has hit the
market for $19.5 million. Expect a flawless
facade that stuns from the outset with
limestone, wood beams and Corten steel,
matched with chic environs draped in
stone, wood, marble, steel and glass.
"The house has exquisite materials that
are incredibly elegant, but have a rustic
quality to them," says listing agent Linda
May. "The juxtaposition of the stonework,
steel-cased windows, Venetian plaster
walls and exquisite landscaping takes you
to another place…you don't feel like you're
in Beverly Hills."
Found in the highly sought-after 900
block of North Alpine Drive, the gated
three-bedroom dwelling greets with a
cerulean blue fountain that leads to a
striking floor-to-ceiling glass entry foyer
clad in Old French-style terracotta stone
flooring. Once inside, 5,000-plus square
feet of living space beckons with a show-
stopping formal living room bedecked
with a grand fireplace and soaring ceilings;
gourmet kitchen outfitted with a built-in
bar and sleek stainless-steel countertops;
and captivating master retreat sporting
Venetian plaster walls, an ornate vaulted
ceiling, and dual baths with a soaking tub
and spacious walk-in closets.
Yet other outstanding attributes include
a billiard room adorned with detailed
wood panels and a floating Venetian
plaster ceiling, and a loft space hosting
an office, gym, terrace, art studio and
observation deck offering eye-catching
views. Outdoors, exceptional Knibb Design
landscaping entices with groves of olive
trees, an expansive veranda, pool and spa,
and open-air pool house with fireplace.
