A Refreshed Architectural Gem in Holmby Hills

This radiant architectural home in Holmby Hills is a design fan’s dream. A hidden oasis in one of L.A.’s most prestigious neighborhoods, the 5,278-square-foot estate was first built in 1961 and stunningly reimagined in 2017. Its classic midcentury aesthetic has been seamlessly infused with timeless contemporary finishes.

Situated off a lush, secluded street and enveloped in towering bamboo hedges and greenery, the home feels worlds away from the hustle of the city. Behind its gate, find a picturesque walkway lined with palms.

Inside, a soaring great room boasts 12-foot ceilings, wide-plank hardwood floors and an elevated fireplace—all thoughtfully crafted for easy entertaining. Fleetwood walls of glass line the room on either side, leading out to manicured lawns and an ultra-private backyard with a swimming pool, spa and terrace shaded by a canopy of greenery.

Beyond the great room is a light-filled den with a full bar, which opens to an alfresco patio.
An additional living room with fireplace flows to a magnificent eat-in chef’s kitchen, replete with Miele appliances, walnut cabinetry and a large center island that lends textural warmth to the home’s contemporary elements.

A staircase off the kitchen leads to two large ensuite bedrooms, each with elegantly appointed bathrooms and generous walk-in closets. Crowned by skylights that bathe the space in light, a hallway off the great room reveals a voluminous ensuite bedroom with walls of glass framing views over the tranquil front garden. Secluded at the end of the wing, the grand master suite features a staggering showroom closet with a marble-topped island and sliding glass walls that fuse the bedroom with a private patio and the pool terrace beyond. Remarkable in scale and appointment, the master bath features a large soaking tub, dual water closets, a concealed flat-screen television, and a glass-enclosed shower overlooking a serene meditation garden.

Complete with Crestron automation and security, 1140 Brooklawn Drive is a modern sanctuary situated just moments from the best of Beverly Hills. It is a home made for the collector; the traveler; the explorer; those seeking an effortless living experience that feels like a retreat yet captures the quintessential spirit and lively energy of Los Angeles.

1140 Brooklawn is offered at $8,500,000.
