Set on a 16,000-square-foot lot, this estate also includes a 2-bedroom guest house, lush gardens, and an array of outdoor amenities. This property’s extensive redesign resulted in a spacious, four-level home with a walkout basement and abundant natural light. The lower level offers an elegant ballroom with a custom bar featuring Suzera fridges and ice machines, a temperature-controlled wine cellar with capacity for thousands of bottles, a gym, a sauna, and a private theater with wiring for a projector and sound system.
