Interiors are beautifully tuned to the current design themes of ‘comfortable luxury’ and focus on all the natural sunlight entering the rooms, washing across gorgeous deeply hewn hardwood floors, rich earth-tone wall colors, endless sets of French doors opening to the outdoor destinations, up-to-the-minute stylish Kitchen & baths-- all the reflection of understated sophistication everywhere you look. The residential compound provides 2 Primary Suites, one in the Main House, and the other in a semi-attached Guest House. Some rooms overlook the dazzling Pool, others the championship sunken Tennis Court, and others the rolling lawn or golf green. Hollywood events with over 500 attendees have focused on the fun recreation bldg with its 2-lane bowling alley plus billiards table and surrounding lounge. This is a veritable vacation retreat within the city, yet one would not realize the city is outside the high walls & thick hedges. Renowned architect Paul Williams was commissioned to create and build the residence for actor Bert Lahr, famous for his role as the Cowardly Lion in the original Wizard of Oz, co-starring next to Judy Garland. Since its first day as a home, it has welcomed Hollywood luminaries ever since. Experience remarkable California living in the Beverly Hills -private but convenient to so many destinations.

Nestled on nearly three rolling acres in the heart of Holmby Hills is Paul Williams’ largest original creation.

With Philippe Starck interiors of the grandest scale, The Azria Estate beams sophistication, timeless design, and an esteemed Los Angeles heritage. The 17-bedroom, 25-bathroom reimagined 1930s home proves to be an unwavering rarity across the globe to this day. From the floor-to-ceiling Swarovski chandelier in the grand dual staircase foyer to the shimmering metallic leaf draping from the living room ceiling, the elevated design-centric elements are in idyllic contrast to William’s quintessential Colonial architecture.

Sixty rooms in total, each with intricate trim work, voluminous window treatments, and bespoke finishes for a lavish sense of sophistication throughout. Amenities are complete with a separate 6000-square-foot structure that includes a grand theater and a gold ceiling dome library overlooking the manicured grounds. The terraced exterior and tranquil waterfalls lead to a glass-walled tennis court perched aside the Moroccan bathhouse and an inviting authentic hammam, all complementing the intricately blue-tiled swimming pool. Cultural integrity completes the grounds with a Japanese garden and teahouse, a French courtyard, and a romantic greenhouse. As a Paul Williams revival, The Azria Estate is truly a legacy property in prime Holmby Hills.
