The Estate

A century of California life. Transformed.

Built in 1917. Over the last ten years, every inch of the estate has been quietly reworked — restored where it mattered, reimagined where it didn’t — into the private venue it is today.

A century of creative California life held in the walls. Five minutes from Sunset. A world away from all of it.

After Dark

“The kind of night
you don’t want to end.”

Once the sun drops behind the canyon, the estate becomes something else entirely. Torchlight along the paths. The pool lit from beneath. A property built for evenings that go long.
