The Italian Job

With an entrance flanked by cypress trees, a Juliet balcony centre-stage and a colonnaded terrace out the back, this architectural marvel is like an Italian palazzo right in the middle of Beverly Hills, in the iconic 90210 neighbourhood. True Hollywood glamour emanates from the house as soon as you step into the entrance hall, replete with a sweeping spiral staircase and circular mezzanine balcony. Start the morning with a dip in the Roman-style pool complete with fountains and, to keep it LA, a hot tub for nights under the stars. On cooler evenings, whip up some cocktails and gather round the firepit. No luxury is spared inside – from the home cinema with plush leather recliners to the palatial marble bathrooms, you will never want to leave. If you plan to hit the home gym in the morning, there’s a sauna for a moment of post-exercise calm. You will be discovering new nooks each day – from the design-led living rooms to the wood panelled office, there’s plenty of space to work, rest, and play. In Beverly Hills you are perfectly placed to see the best of LA. Hop in the car for two minutes and you are on Sunset Boulevard, the iconic strip teeming with bars, restaurants and nightlife. For the best luxury shopping in the city, Rodeo Drive is a five minute car ride away. Also up the road is the Beverly Hills hotel, whose pink exterior and matching sun loungers oozes Silver Screen glamour. Welcome to the City of Angels.
