Big draws for villa: tennis and films
Tennis, anyone? Or, perhaps a swim? This house was built with entertainment in mind, from its city-view site at the top of a long, private drive to its grand-scale rooms, including a family area that can be turned, with the push of a button, into a screening room.
Producer Mike Medavoy built the Mediterranean-style villa in 1991. The current owner is Armand Marciano, a co-founder of Guess Inc.
About this house: Marciano bought it about five years ago as a place to live while building elsewhere. Now he and his wife, Marie, are preparing to move to their new house, which took seven years to complete.
Asking price: $8.9 million
Size: The two-story home has seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms in 9,853 square feet. The house is on a 40,070-square-foot lot.
Features: The villa has an extra-large master suite with a fireplace and sitting area; a professional chef-style kitchen with a breakfast area; and a study-library. The grounds, on a cul-de-sac, feature a north-south tennis court.
Where: Beverly Hills post office area
Listing agent: Loren Judd, Westside Estate Agency, Beverly Hills, (310) 860-8882.
