Beverly Hills 90210 is the coveted location of this 5 bedroom, 9 bathroom, 12,500 square foot home. The listing, from The Agency, showcases 1300 Beverly Estate Drive as a palatial three-story property that rules a 67,953 square foot sloping lot. Its quiet neighborhood is just minutes from the heart of Beverly Hills, and enjoys stunning panorama of the cityscape below and an ocean scene beyond. The interior design is a stunning a collaboration by Lorenzo Cascino, brand ambassador for Italian design firm Visionnaire, and Los Angeles based Ameen Ayoub Design Studio. The result is modern glamor that is both sleek and inviting, filled with high-end materials, bespoke decor and remarkable amenities.
One thousand feet of driveway curls up toward the hillside retreat.
The modern exterior cuts thin white slices away from the foliage covered natural landscape, replacing the fallen greenery with gardens of its own.
Sweeping terraces cradle young trees and shrubs that will flourish to merge the private property with its beautiful location.
The 80-foot-long pool design paints a bright blue bar across the face of the property. An extensive pool terrace runs the full length of the property, a perfect place for entertaining guests or simply enjoying solitude.
The pool laps against the sheer edge of the property. Swimmers can pause in the cool water to gaze out at unobstructed views of Beverly Hills.
Outdoor lounge areas fill the terrace, which includes custom-made lounge furniture by Visionnaire and fire pits to warm the terrace late into the night. There’s also a chic outdoor bar area with a large TV–perfect for keeping up with the game and good friends.
Sunloungers stretch beneath clear blue LA skies.
On arrival, we find a grand entrance located the level beneath the wraparound terrace. A striking black and white facade stands bold amongst neat plant beds and borders, which are beautifully lit to create a warm welcome.
From out here we can already see the main attraction - an Allosaurus skeleton, on loan from a private collector. The ancient exhibit is poised as if to race across the floor of a magnificent double-height glass wall foyer.
The white stone floor of the foyer spills to the outside of the building, like a luxurious welcome mat. The towering glass walls wrap the side of a second volume of the home, to flood a landing with sunshine.
Inside the foyer, glass balustrades around the modern staircase keep the entire space looking open and bright.
Massive sliding glass Fleetwood pocket doors open up the length of the home, bringing the Californian sun right inside. The brilliant sunshine highlights a central 22 foot tall, double-sided Aquitanian black marble fireplace in the open plan living room. Airy lounge areas are decorated in pale neutrals to let the fabulous stone have its moment.
More black marble is used as bespoke decoration on the opposite side of the luxurious living room, along with custom chandelier designs and exceptional works of art.
A bar has been crafted with rare Porto gold marble. The kitchen, living and dining areas become one with the back terrace and all of the outdoor entertaining space it has to add.
The dining room is an enormous double height spectacle of Aquitanian black marble, which is the opposite side of the living room’s central fireplace. A magnificent dining room chandelier rains down from its ceiling mount high above the table.
A modern chandelier is formed by a group of ring pendants in the kitchen, over the walk space between two sleek waterfall-edge kitchen islands topped with Armani Pietra gray marble.
Moving further in we find a dedicated tasting bar combined with yet another relaxing lounge area.
Behind the tasting lounge there stands a 600-bottle temperature-controlled wine storage room.
Glass walls keep the wine storage wall open to the rest of the home, creating a unique design feature and inevitable talking point.
An abundance of copper globe pendants bubble along the ceiling space of the glass entryway. Wooden panels wrap the interior walls and ceiling in a rich tone that marries harmoniously with the warmth of the metallic shades.
Glass walls let nature become the decor of the landing that leads to the bedrooms.
On the third level, situated at the end for added privacy, the master suite becomes an outdoor space when great glass walls are retracted. A unique headboard design has bedsides built into white upholstered panels, revealing moments of highly polished wood grain. The suite has a morning kitchen to enable the owners to take coffee out on the terrace immediately upon waking.
Mahogany cabinets seem to go on for miles and miles.
Black marble is replaced by cloud-white Bianca Carrara marble in the luxury bathroom design, which has dual bathroom vanities, a soaking tub, and its own access to the outdoor terrace.
Three more ensuite bedrooms occupy the north wing. The second elegant bedroom is filled with silver grey furnishings and modern bedside table lamps.
A double sink bathroom vanity stretches the length of a contemporary bathroom scheme.
Another bedroom opens directly onto a fire pit surrounded by outdoor chairs.
Plush white seating fills a home theater for 12 viewers.
There is a fitness studio stocked with Technogym equipment, a sauna, and a steam room clad with Calacatta porcelain.
Recreational amenities are plentiful in this home. The games room has a multi-screen TV wall and stylish white pool table. Outside, a hot tub deck is made private by tall growing bamboo plants.
The home boasts a four-car motor court, and has fully-integrated smart home technology.
The 945 square foot showroom garage is floored with glossy black tile.
World-famous venues and shopping of Beverly Hills, West Hollywood and the Sunset Strip are just minutes outside the gate.
