Welcome to this magnificent compound with a rich history on almost one acre. Originally part of the Edgar Rice Burroughs Estate, it was once the residence of the legendary Mae West, adding a touch of celebrity glamour to its legacy. Nestled behind a long private gated driveway adorned with vibrant bougainvillea and fragrant jasmine, this home offers the utmost privacy and seclusion. A brick pathway leads to the front door, which showcases leaded glass, hinting at the elegance that awaits inside. Stepping into the house, you'll be greeted by the timeless allure of hardwood floors that extend throughout. The living room is bathed in natural light pouring through the original large picture windows, illuminating the space and highlighting the marble fireplace. The house boasts a formal dining room with crystal chandelier and wet bar. The family room features a limestone fireplace and offers a seamless transition to the beautiful grounds through its French doors. The kitchen is equipped with a large center island, a skylight that fills the space with natural light, a Sub Zero refrigerator, and a spacious eating area. The primary suite is a true haven, offering a walk-in closet and a luxurious bathroom featuring two sinks, a shower, tub, and sauna, all adorned with exquisite honey onyx. This remarkable house offers two additional en-suite bedrooms, both with ample closet space and onyx and marble bathrooms. This home offers a separate laundry room, and powder room with an onyx countertop. Outside, you'll discover a pool house (approx. 738 sq. ft.) with high vaulted wood-beamed ceilings and ¾ granite bathroom. The detached 3-car limo garage (approx. 972 sq. ft.), includes an attic for additional storage.
