Designed by Roy Seldon Price for Charlie Chaplin's second wife, this 1928 estate offers rare architectural significance and Hollywood heritage that commands a premium in the Beverly Hills market.
The residence has been meticulously remodeled to blend period charm with modern luxury, featuring Viking appliances, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and a resort-style backyard with a pool house and cold plunge.
Situated on a double-gated lot in the highly coveted 'Flats,' the property provides exceptional privacy and security while being moments away from world-class shopping and dining on Rodeo Drive.
The property is noted as having no views, which may be a drawback for ultra-high-net-worth buyers who prioritize the panoramic city or canyon vistas often found in nearby hillside estates.
Despite extensive renovations, the 1928 vintage of the structure may entail higher long-term maintenance costs and insurance complexities compared to contemporary new-construction homes.
