Serenely situated on just over a one-and-a-half acre promontory and behind a cast iron gate, this rare and private mountain retreat is sited only moments from downtown Beverly Hills. Up a long driveway, an oversized motor-court accommodates parking for nine. The design is traditional but very chic. All on one level, the floorplan was designed with the entertainer in mind. Set back and bookended by verdant, park-like grounds, light is abundant and the setting is quiet and tranquil. Long and wide views of the canyon and sunsets captivate daily. The two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom main residence is decorated with original architectural details. The kitchen is appointed with stainless appliances and banquette seating. Through French doors, the home naturally spills outside. Also on the property is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom guest house and a massive Beverly Hills Hotel-style pool. Call this a pied-de-terre, easily add square footage, or develop a new 8,000-square-foot home.
