This one-of-a-kind two-story Spanish-style home, originally built in 1928, has been completely redone while respecting the original architectural style and character of the bygone era. It's finished with the highest quality fixtures and amenities desired for 21st-century living. Located in beautiful Benedict Canyon, you are nestled in greenery and nature, yet just a few minutes drive from the legendary Beverly Hills Hotel. And let's not forget Warner Avenue Elementary. Entering through the arched entry door, you'll be welcomed into the two-story turret-style entryway. The original spiral staircase with twisted wrought iron detail transports you to another decade, while at the same time, the black-and-white marble and Belgium-honed limestone flooring set the tone for the sophisticated color palette of the home. Step down from the entry and into the character-filled living room. Notice the original 12-foot wood beam ceilings, original heating and air conditioning grates, and push-button on/off switches, which are featured throughout the home. The heart of the home is the kitchen, and this one is any cook's dream come true. With its top-of-the-line appliances, including a Lacanche range imported from France, you'll see that no detail or expense has been spared. The oversized marble center island with bar seating is the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine from the built-in wine refrigerator. Passing through double arches from the kitchen, you move into the breakfast room, with beautiful views of the front patio nestled under a canopy of sycamore branches. Beyond the kitchen and breakfast room sits the cozy family room another original room in the house with its classic wood-burning fireplace. This special room has its own private entrance; a perfect way to receive guests. The primary bedroom is full of opulent appointments - from the spacious walk-in dressing room to the gray-on-gray marble bathroom featuring a large soaking tub and double sized shower. The additional three bedrooms, one which is currently being used as an office, are all upstairs along with the primary bedroom. They are nicely appointed with full baths, high ceilings, large walk-in closets and beautiful views. The yard is ideal for entertaining, with a black-bottom pool, spa, and easy access to the indoor/outdoor bathroom. The party possibilities are endless. The two-car finished garage is equipped with 220EV, and an abundance of additional parking is an added bonus for this location. Adjacent to the garage is a gym and bathroom.

Cons

Significant Price Discrepancy: The listing price of $4.495M is 25% higher than the estimated value of $3.36M, which may indicate overpricing relative to automated market data or recent comparable sales.
Potential for Older Infrastructure: Despite extensive renovations, the 1928 original build year, coupled with the mention of 'original heating and air conditioning grates,' could raise concerns for some buyers about the age and efficiency of underlying systems not explicitly stated as fully replaced or upgraded to modern standards.
Limited Panoramic Views: While offering pleasant views of mountains, pool, and trees/woods, the property description does not highlight expansive panoramic city or ocean views, which are often highly sought after and can command a premium in the Beverly Hills luxury market.
