The Historical Chartwell Estate, Bel Air

July 19, 2019 FEATURED

This enhanced and restored residence, formerly created in 1935, engaged legendary French designer Henri Samuel who is known for his home designs for the Vanderbilts, Rothchilds, and Valentino. The architecture-interior to exterior aesthetic, heavily incorporates 18’th Century French Neoclassical design, thence the approximate 25,000 square foot floor plan is suited for entertainment and living on the grandest of scales.

The estate’s limestone facade compliments all proportions of luxury, especially when viewing the collosal residence from the manicured gardens, which in themselves are quite expensive.

Once within Chartwell Estate, the idea of luxury-living takes on an entire new meaning. With a grand ballroom, salon, paneled dining room, world class wine cellar, and a covered parking (for 40 cars) which constitute just some of what is hidden within the interior’s massive floor plan, the remarkable interior to exterior fluidity is awe-inspiring.

Considering the three contiguous properties which were acquired to form the concurrent 10.3 acres, Chartwell Estate’s seat is quite grand. The magnificent surrounding grounds encompass and form a long private driveway, Wallace Neff guest house, elegantly manicured gardens, a tennis court, 75-foot pool (with pool house), all of this and more set against the backdrop of sweeping panoramic views of downtown Los Angeles and the elegant Pacific Ocean.
