About this home

Welcome to this stunning south-of-the-boulevard gated estate, sitting on over one flat acre in the heart of Encino. As the dramatic gates open, you’re greeted by a 30-car cobblestone motor court that sets the tone for this 9,200 sq. ft. residence. To the south, you’ll find a lit sports court striped for pickleball — the perfect spot for daily matches and weekend fun. The front-facing four-car garage offers abundant storage space, attic access, and is prepped for EV charging. Step through the grand glass entry doors into an entertainer’s dream home, designed for large gatherings, holidays, and unforgettable parties. The main level offers a huge sunken dining room, a warm and cozy library, a formal living room, and a lively bar room — all opening to the backyard for a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. The chef’s kitchen boasts soaring ceilings, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, two sub-zero refrigerators and freezers paneled to match the kitchen, and a connected family room, perfect for homework, game nights, and casual hangouts. The laundry area leads to a home office, full bathroom, and guest quarters, ideal for long-term visitors or staff accommodations. The 1,600 sq. ft. primary suite is a retreat in itself, with high-pitched ceilings, a separate sitting room or gym/nursery, a spa-like bathroom with a sunken tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. Just outside the suite is a 1,300-bottle temperature-controlled wine room, accessible from both inside and outside the home. Upstairs, a dramatic staircase leads to three generous secondary bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath and walk-in closet. The backyard is an entertainer’s paradise, offering multiple gathering areas for morning coffee or evening cocktails, a covered BBQ and dining space, a sparkling pool, and a separate spa with a dramatic water feature — all surrounded by lush greenery. This property includes security cameras inside and out as well as security/motion lights all throughout the property. Also included is a Puroserve soft water system. If you’ve dreamt of living in a true Encino estate, this is your rare opportunity to own one of the neighborhood’s most impressive properties.
