Beverly Hills Beauty
Beverly Hills is known for the pomp and circumstance that is the stereotype of Angeleno culture. The homes in the 90210 zip code are a random mix of revivalist stunners and neo-architectural train wrecks. When you look through the Beverly Hills real estate listings you will see the spectrum and, with a little effort, discover the most brilliant homes. Of all the houses on the market in the glitzy neighborhood, 9212 Hazen Drive is one of the most striking.
Sited in the hills just south of Mulholland Drive, this home combines old world character with polished nouveau decor. Designer Trip Haenisch, who is known for his sophisticated designs for celebrities like Courteney Cox, merged cozy with glossy to highlight the unique architectural features of this cottage style home. The 7000 square foot house features 5 bedrooms and bathrooms, a tennis court, a swimming pool, and a guest house. The customary modern conveniences are all there, but don't detract from the 1920s charm.
The informal spaces of this home are almost better than the formals. The army green Den made me want to wear camo and tartan for the rest of my life. Meanwhile, the Butler's Pantry is painted covered in a Sapphire blue that makes you want to make to enjoy a cocktail. These color combinations are unapologetic and give a little bit of camp to the otherwise classic home.
If you've dreamed of living in the country's most famous zip code and have a spare 12 million to toss into a piece of property then 9212 Hazen Drive is the house for you. Head over to the listing to check out the specifics.
Listed by Hilton & Hyland Realty for $11,700,000.
