Presenting the recently remodelled and beautifully reimagined former estate of iconic best selling author Jackie Collins. Originally custom built in 1991 on just under 1 acre in prime Beverly Hills. Enter through the 10ft cantilever marble and bronze door to the incredible two-story galleried foyer with sweeping glass walled staircase. Built for entertaining the foyer provides open-plan access to the vast, grand salon-styled areas, wet bar, and formal living room, all with vistas to the pool and garden. A large kitchen, with two center islands and custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry features both Sub-zero and Miele fixtures. An informal eating area opens spectacularly to more al-fresco dining with a custom live-edge single-slab table that seats 28 flanked by mature Olive trees, lily ponds and brass lotus flower fountain. The ground floor also houses a formal dining room, additional chef's kitchen, plush screening room and numerous marble filled powder rooms.
The luxurious primary suite covers approximately 2,500 sqft, complete with entry, living room, office, dual bathrooms and oversized walk-in closets. Numerous balconies overlook resort-like grounds with views of the Hollywood Hills. Two additional suites, with balconies and one junior suite are accessed from the gallery landing.
An enviable 100ft long art gallery seamlessly connects to a guest apartment, offices and managers suite. The upstairs gym, accessed by a custom brass spiral staircase, leads to a large mosaic tiled steam room, with showers, sauna and massage area. The Haçienda styled layout not only provides privacy but creates a quiet, central courtyard of manicured gardens surrounding a pool, spa, and lounge seating for 20+ guests, complete with an exterior kitchen, bar and grill offset by a live moss wall.
Gated and set back from the street with a large motor court and garages for a further 6 cars. Other amenities include laundry on each floor and an elevator. Current code means this one-of-kind compound estate simply cannot be replicated.
