55555 W. ESTATE BOULEVARD LOS ANGELES, CA.

Property Description

On a rare, manicured, half acre in beautiful Bel Air-Holmby, this gracious Southern Colonial will certainly impress.

Majestically gated with a convenient circular driveway and a large motor court, this true home commands a stately presence and a warm and inviting approach.

With many recent upgrades and architecture inspired by Paul Williams, an air of casual refinement wafts throughout. Sun-filled at every turn, the quintessential center hall floorplan is punctuated by an elegant foyer and sweeping staircase. A stunning, spacious, bright formal living room opens to a comfortable library, perfect for lazy weekend mornings reading the newspaper. Fireplaces warm each room and through a bank of French doors, enjoy an airy sitting deck taking in verdant views of the estate-like grounds, of the pool and of green treetops blanketing toward the twinkling lights of the city.

Off the foyer is a handsome study. An expansive formal dining room, amply sized for larger dinner parties, and the sunny kitchen and breakfast area all enjoy the same vistas. There’s also a dream butler’s pantry with walk-in storage and a housekeeper’s or guest’s bedroom and bath.

There are four (potentially five) spacious bedrooms upstairs including a fabulous master retreat. The expansive master has a sitting area, wet bar and fireplace. It dramatically opens to a covered balcony featuring the same dramatic views. The sumptuous dual master bath has a spa tub, and dual walk-in closets and vanities. An oversized steam shower joins both sides. Two bedrooms share a redone full bath, Jack & Jill style while the 4th bedroom is en suite. The potential 5th bedroom is currently used as a spacious office. 

The lower level is a true, self-contained, entertainer’s paradise with its enormous family room and lodge-like fireplace, its newer mini-gourmet kitchen and bar and its dining area and wine room. All this wonderful space opens through a bank of French doors to the outdoors. A gorgeous pool bathroom/changing room can be accessed from here or from outside. Direct access to the three car garage is here as well as is a large laundry room and storage galore.

The backyard is recently renovated, very private paradise, featuring a gorgeous landscape and hardscape with numerous vignettes perfectly designed for sunning, al fresco dining and casual lounging in the outdoor living room. There’s built in barbecue area, an outdoor shower and vast, wide-open grassy expanses with plenty of room to run. As its centerpiece, the backyard features a sparkling saline pool and spa surrounded by open deck space. There’s also a very large gym tucked toward the rear of the yard designed for inspirational workouts enjoying vistas of these impressive grounds.

Numerous system upgrades were done such as multi-zone cooling/ heating, an enhanced security system, copper piping and a sophisticated phone system, just to name a few. 

An unusual amount of extra parking and coveted inclusion in the Warner Avenue Elementary School District complete this rare and exquisite package.

Offered at $7,250,000 : Nowhere else in West LA for this price do all these amazing elements symphonize into one moment.
