"On South Mapleton Drive, Formula One heiress Petra Ecclestone set an L.A. County and California price record with the sale of the 56,500-square-foot mega-mansion known as the Manor. The mammoth transaction tops the previous L.A. County record established last year of $110 million. It also bests California's high-water mark of $117.5 million, which was set in 2013 with the sale of an estate in the Woodside community of Silicon Valley."
"Originally built for producer Aaron Spelling and his widow, Candy Spelling, the mansion sits on a 4.7-acre parcel where crooner Bing Crosby once had a home. Entered through an immense foyer, the residence has 123 rooms, including 14 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms. Features include a hair salon and massage parlor, a nightclub with a custom aquarium and a tanning room. A one-lane bowling alley lies in the basement level."
"Outdoors, the manicured grounds are filled with rose gardens, orchards, statuaries, fountains and koi ponds. A swimming pool, spa and tennis court also lie on the property. Ecclestone bought the estate from Candy Spelling eight years ago for $85 million."
Los Angeles County experienced significant luxury real estate activity in July, with multiple high-value residential transactions. The Manor in Holmby Hills, a 56,500-square-foot mega-mansion originally built for producer Aaron Spelling, sold for $119.75 million, establishing both an L.A. County and California price record. The property features 123 rooms including 14 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms, along with amenities such as a nightclub, bowling alley, hair salon, and massage parlor. The expansive grounds include rose gardens, orchards, fountains, koi ponds, swimming pool, spa, and tennis court. Additional notable sales included a $75 million Bel-Air showplace and a $30 million property on Billionaire's Row.
