Secluded behind private gates and surrounded by lush, vibrant greenery, this Mediterranean-inspired tennis court estate offers resort-like living in the most exclusive estates section of Benedict Canyon. Set on over 1.5 acres of serene land, the property provides a peaceful sanctuary in the hills while remaining just minutes from the heart of Beverly Hills or Ventura Boulevard in the Valley. A true entertainer's dream, the estate features numerous private areas that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by drought-tolerant landscaping and a sprawling motor court with ample parking for up to fifteen vehicles. The main residence, perched above the tennis court, showcases exquisite design details such as decorative murals, coffered ceilings, exposed wood beams, and wainscoting throughout. The grand foyer opens to the expansive rear grounds, adorned with multiple fountains, a cascading waterfall, and a variety of lounging spaces perfect for relaxation. The primary suite is a masterpiece, featuring a European-inspired fireplace, custom built-ins, a private lanai, and a sitting room currently used for massage and meditation. The suite also includes dual walk-in closets and a luxurious bathroom with a marble spa tub, dual showers, dual vanities, makeup station, and two water closets. A separate, spacious guest house offers a large living room, kitchen, office, upstairs bedroom, two bathrooms, and gym which could be used as an additional bedroom. French doors open to the enchanting pool and spa area, making this additional structure an ideal space for relaxation or a potential two-bedroom layout. Outdoor dining and lounging spaces provide the perfect backdrop for al-fresco dining or unwinding with a favorite beverage. Additional amenities include a viewing lounge with a Gennaro Rosetti-designed copper-top hardwood bar, a wine room adjacent to the formal dining area, and buried powerlines and subterranean wires to maximize the estate's verdant, natural ambiance.
