A once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the most prominent LA estates. The opulent Oliver R. Fuller Estate, a Spanish Colonial Revival, shielded by refined wrought iron gates, was envisioned by the renowned architect Harry Hayden Whiteley, AIA, in 1929. The driveway is a private and elegant pathway to the estate's entrance. Seamlessly combining the grandeur of a classic Mediterranean estate with the enchantment of old Hollywood allure, the estate and its guest house sit on over 39,000 feet of lush grounds. Offering six bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, the estate proudly occupies an LA footprint alongside the Griffith Observatory with stunning panoramic views that extend across the LA basin and beyond.The two-story rotunda-style entry with hand-painted artistry, a ceiling that casts an enduring charm, and a sweeping staircase that evokes the nostalgia of a bygone era are just the beginning. The Baronial step-down living room, with an ornate fireplace and unique detail, opens to French doors revealing a balcony that overlooks the pool, spa, and city of Los Angeles. The light-filled library adds to the property's allure with a honeycombed coiffured ceiling, stained glass, fireplace, and a Prohibition-style hidden bar. The large dining room captures the city views and boasts a hand-stenciled wood ceiling and glass doors to a covered veranda--where one secretly enjoys the city below and the warmth of a crackling fireplace behind. The massive cook's kitchen, complete with a Butler's pantry, commercial-grade appliances, and an oversized island, adds a touch of modern convenience. Ascend the wrought iron circular staircase to an upper landing for a mesmerizing view of the rotunda below. Five exquisitely designed bedroom suites are meticulously renovated with an unwavering commitment to modern amenities and charm.The primary retreat, featuring a fireplace and a spa-like bathroom adorned with stained glass, captures breathtaking ocean views. Descending to the pool level, one finds an entertainer's paradise - a spacious media room, home gym, 2500+ bottle wine cellar, and 2-baths, one with a steam sauna. Nestled privately above the estate, a 1-bedroom and 2-bathroom guest house sits atop a secret garden pathway. Featuring a living room, kitchenette, front porch, and city and rooftop views, literally an 'over-the-top' perfect guest residence, home office, or studio. Breathtaking!
