About this property
In Trousdale Estates, there is Carla Ridge and then there is the Carla Ridge Rim. For those who know Trousdale, no explanation is necessary. For those who don't, opportunities on this coveted ridgeline are exceedingly rare. Defined by extraordinary privacy, expansive flat parcels, and a concentration of some of the neighborhood's most significant residences, the Rim has long been regarded as the crown jewel of Trousdale Estates. Privately positioned behind gates on this legendary stretch of Carla Ridge, this exceptional mid century compound spans approximately 6,500 square feet and includes a separate guest house. For generations, the Carla Ridge Rim has attracted an extraordinary roster of residents, including Hollywood power broker Swifty Lazar, acclaimed artist Ed Ruscha, television pioneer Sherwood Schwartz, actor David Janssen, legendary television producer Freddie de Cordova, and music artist Charlie Puth. Few streets in Beverly Hills possess a comparable combination of cultural significance, architectural pedigree, and enduring prestige. What makes this offering so extraordinary is not any one feature, but the convergence of all of them. In Trousdale, buyers are often forced to choose. One property offers scale. Another offers privacy. Another offers a flat lot. Another offers architectural pedigree. Another offers modern design. Rarely do all of those qualities exist together. Here, they do. Soaring ceilings, walls of glass, expansive entertaining spaces, seamless indoor-outdoor living, a separate guest house, exceptional privacy, and one of the largest and most usable settings in the neighborhood combine to create a residence that is both impressive and remarkably livable. Outside, mature landscaping, expansive lawns, a resort-style pool, and generous entertaining areas create the atmosphere of a private compound hidden above Beverly Hills. The result is a property that feels worlds away while remaining moments from the best of Los Angeles. Some homes come to market. Properties on the Carla Ridge Rim are passed from one steward to the next. Why settle when you can have it all? No, you don't have to choose.
