Located in one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Los Angeles, this one-of-a-kind modern residence is not only a work of art, but also designed with the art connoisseur in mind. Flowing interiors and spectacular linear wall space beckon art collectors to showcase their greatest acquisitions.

The 11,000-square-foot home is nestled on a lushly manicured green acre that overlooks Holmby Park. The same trees that line the park flow within the perimeter of the property, offering serene views of both the park and golf course. The landscape is peppered with sculptures by acclaimed artist Tony Smith and beautifully melds together the art of both man and nature. A reflecting pool is seamlessly intertwined with the architecture and accentuates modern design and living. It is a gem that has become a landmark in a historically rich location.

Designed by renowned architect Timothy Morgan Steele, a leading patron of the arts, this home was fashioned for the creative entertaining couple who can appreciate a forward looking lifestyle. It is a refreshingly modern addition to the more traditional architecture of the surrounding area. Other amenities include: three bedrooms, five and a half baths, staff suite, full gallery and study designed with an airy zinc dome, three-car covered garage and bay for a fourth vehicle, state-of-the-art security system and sumptuous his and hers walk in closets.

Beverly Hills

Escape from reality across an exquisite Jerusalem stone bridge surrounded by tranquil water, and find yourself in an awe-inspiring modern Balinese-style villa. Soaring ceilings vault over approximately 12,000 square feet living space, and imported materials from all over the world enhance every surface. Two hundred-year-old teak wood native to Bali compliments beautiful walnut wood staircases, stout mahogany and exotic African Zebra doors thick as trees, and Chinese bamboo ceilings spread out under a copper roof. Viking appliances outfit a hand-crafted pearl wood kitchen.

Architect, developer, and designer Mohamed Hadid utilized an immense scale throughout the home, exemplified by the oversized walk-in closets in each bedroom, and sweeping views that stretch out beyond each window. Not only are these splendid rooms beautifully crafted down to minutest detail, but the furnishings were custom-made by Hadid for each living space. With three master suites, six bedrooms, and nine bathrooms, each holding imported glass tile showers, the estate is more than equipped for a multitude of guests, who will quickly acclimate to the unique indoor and outdoor lifestyle facilitated and promoted by the gracious Beverly Hills environs. A 1,000-bottle wine cellar, a movie theater, a Turkish bath, a full gym, and infinity pool round out the estate’s opulent amenities.
