Description
Sited on nearly one acre of lush grounds adorned with blossoming hydrangeas, cascading wisteria, and swaying mature trees, a magical gated compound unfolds, hidden from the street and reached by a long, private, tree-lined driveway. Designed by architect Lise Claiborne Matthews, AIA, ASID, and never before on the market, this rare offering spans two verdant parcels, 13127 Boca de Canon and 2041 Mandeville. Once the site of a historic botanical garden, the property is fully encircled by mature trees, offering exceptional privacy. The enchanting faade opens to interiors that blend elegance and warmth, featuring soaring ceilings, curved glass windows, French doors at nearly every turn, and exquisite custom millwork throughout. The open-concept layout encourages effortless entertaining. Upon entering, guests are welcomed by a sense of scale and sophistication, with an elegant dining room and formal living room anchored by a marble fireplace and framed by architecturally distinctive ceilings and curved glass windows. Filtered light and greenery are visible from nearly every room. The living area includes a cozy step-down family room with media center and fireplace. The chef's kitchen is appointed with a butcher-block island, three sinks, Viking range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, dual Miele dishwashers, and pantry. A sunlit informal dining area and tranquil sunroom provide serene spaces for morning coffee or quiet reflection. The main level also includes a guest suite, large study, and sixth bedroom. The expansive primary suite offers a sitting room, French doors to a private balcony, custom niches, and a spa-inspired bath with marble dual-sink vanity, oversized steam rain shower, soaking tub, dual water closets, dressing area, and two walk-in closets. Secondary bedrooms are spacious and filled with natural light. The recreational level features an entertainment and wellness wing complete with kitchenette, billiards room, sauna, cinema, gym, wine cellar, soundproof playroom, and a light-filled atrium. Outdoors, resort-style amenities include a 50-foot saltwater pool, meditation garden, koi pond, grassy lawn, patios, and lounging decks, with ample room for future additions such as a sport court or play area. Completing the estate are a three-car garage, a fully functional gym or potential ADU, expansive motor court, and parking for twelve-plus vehicles. The entrance is accessed via a private drive off Mandeville Canyon. Just moments from Brentwood, Santa Monica, and Pacific Palisades, the estate offers both convenience and discretion while feeling entirely removed from the city.
