But it’s actually situated on 7.8 acres atop an LA promontory accessed via a private, tree-lined driveway. The real magic begins when you step foot inside the grand, two-story foyer, with its impressive Imperial staircase. Ornate details, like carved wood detailing and 16th-century Venetian stained glass windows and doors,, are seen throughout the house.

In addition to its eight bedrooms and 14 bathrooms, the home has an industrial grade chef’s kitchen and a formal dining room with double doors made from Venetian stained glass windows. There’s also a living room with a bar and fireplace, billiards room, a formal sitting room and a two-story library with a steel spiral staircase and a stained glass light fixtures.
However, it’s the primary suite that truly rivals that of a castle, with its luxe materials and multiple terraces. The suite has a massage room, dual closets, some of the best views in the house and a bathroom made of lapis stone.

The estate also an entertainer’s paradise, with a theater, ballroom and a wine cellar that looks like an 18th-century English saloon. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a reason to leave the grounds, as the property has nearly everything you’d ever need. Outside you’ll find a pool, spa, rose garden, putting green, fruit and vegetable garden, tennis court, koi pond and multiple al fresco living and dining areas. The home , which is located in a secure gated community, also has a gym and quarters for extra guests or staff.

“With its European grandeur, this castle on a hill is one of LA’s finest offerings,” says listing agent Aaron Kirman of Aaron Kirman Group at Compass. “Its architecture, unlike the cookie-cutter spec homes we are used to seeing, brings a fresh breath of refinement to the LA market.”
