Behind private gates reclaimed from a century-old barn, an extraordinary contemporary estate commands more than an acre in the Bird Streets with nearly 500 feet of frontage -- a scale virtually unheard of in the neighborhood. Encompassing approximately 24,000 square feet with nine bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, and a detached guest residence, the property is an immersive study in architecture, material, and craftsmanship set against sweeping views across Los Angeles. A dramatic entry introduces a custom Vesta lighting installation and soaring walls of glass framing a sculptural water feature and the skyline beyond. Warm natural tones, rich textures, and exceptional marble sourced throughout Europe define the interiors, while a monumental stone fireplace rises through all three levels, beginning in the great room and culminating within the primary suite. The Milan-designed Arclinea kitchen features Wolf appliances, formal dining, and a butler's pantry. Italian craftsmanship continues with suede interior doors, hand-finished leather and suede closets, Antonio Lupi vanities, and sculptural solid-marble Pibamarmi bathtubs. The primary suite captures panoramic views from nearly every vantage point, with a double-sided fireplace, sitting room, and expansive terrace with multiple fire pits and private spa. Its boutique-scale dressing room is finished with Italian cabinetry, custom mirrors, and vanity. Outside, the estate becomes a private resort above the city. A nearly 100-foot curved infinity pool traces the horizon alongside an 18-foot sunken Travertine fire pit, living walls, Brazilian hanging swings, and a white-sand volleyball court engineered on deeply embedded piles. The detached guest residence opens directly to a spectacular 30-person spa. Entertainment and wellness rival a private club: a fully equipped fitness center, eight-person steam room, massage suite, 20-seat cinema with bespoke Dutch furnishings, hookah lounge beneath a remarkable European "handkerchief" ceiling, private nightclub with stone bar and performance area, two temperature-controlled wine rooms, and a 2,500-SF dedicated wing. A singular pavilion lined with hundreds of illuminated arched niches and crowned by a dramatic glass installation creates one final architectural moment. Savant automation and a Kevlar-encased safe and panic room complete this extraordinary estate above Los Angeles. Seller accepts cryptocurrency.
