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.
