The late Sheikh Saleh Abdullah Kamel’s stunning contemporary estate has finally sold for $24.5 million after almost two years on the market. During his lifetime, Sheikh Kamel made his fortune working as a banker and financier, controlling a wide range of companies. First purchased back in 2010, the Beverly Park estate was a prominent asset for Kamel in the United States.

John Simonian, owner and CEO of luxury watch shop Westime, is the new owner of the Beverly Park estate adding to the two other multi-million-dollar properties he owns in the area, one being a French Chateau style estate and the other an empty lot. In addition to running his luxury watch shops, Simonian has established himself as a real estate investor having bought and sold multiple estates in Miami, making a sizeable profit.

Both Simonian's newly acquired modern estate and his other estate within Beverly Park were designed by architect Richard Landry. Despite this commonality, the style of the two estates couldn’t be more different.

Located in the exclusive 90210 zip code, neighboring many celebrities and business elite, the property offers optimum security. Back in 2000 when the house was conceptualized by the Landry Design Group, the estate certainly stood out for its modern visionary design. Over the years, the ultra-modern style has become somewhat controversial, which may account for the steep price drop while the estate remained on the market.

The sleek white exterior of the estate extends into the home, accented with light hardwood and large glass windows inviting plenty of natural light to flow throughout the home. Located on 6.79 Acres with 11 bedrooms, 18 full bathrooms, and a 4+ car garage, the estate is sure to impress.

Stallone reportedly purchased the Beverly Hills property in the 1990s and by 1994, moved into the extravagant home. Over the years, Stallone has reduced his real estate footprint on the West Coast with the sale of his desert golf oasis in La Quinta, California last spring for $3.15 million. In December of 2020, he purchased an estate in Palm Beach, Florida for $35,375,000. The Beverly Hills property was first placed on the market in January at a price of $110 million, but the Stallones were not fully certain they wanted to move. Once they came to a definitive conclusion, the price of the home was reduced by 22% to $85 million.

The 3.5 acre hilltop estate rests behind the double gated community of North Beverly Park. While the official square footage of the residence is undetermined, the home includes eight bedrooms, nine full bathrooms, and three half bathrooms. Over the course of his residence, Stallone has filled the space with his personal touch from the Rambo themed mailbox to his award display above the fireplace. The home’s interior includes an enormous kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows, art studio, home theater, stylish cigar room, custom bar, fully equipped gym, and eight-car garage. The primary suite is equipped with lounge and dressing areas, dual bathrooms, apartment-sized closets, sauna, steam room, and office with terrace. The outdoor space feature multiple patios, putting grounds, spa, and infinity pool offering views of the Los Angeles cityscape. Additionally, the two-story guesthouse designed by favored Hollywood architect Richard Landry features a full kitchen, dining room, living room, and two bedroom suites.

The listing for this property is held by Kurt Rappaport and Jade Mills with Coldwell Banker.

A few months after Stallone's $35.39 million purchase of a waterfront compound in Palm Beach, Florida, his longtime famous mansion was listed. The property itself is one of only a handful of homes offered at more than $100 million in Southern California. 

Originally purchased in the late 1990s for an unrecorded amount, the mansion spans 3.5 acres in North Beverly Park, one of the most exclusive enclaves within L.A. County. The Mediterranean-style property sits on a cul-de-sac at the end of a long private drive covering 21,000 square feet. It includes eight bedrooms and 12 bathrooms with views of Rodeo Drive and beyond. 

The main level of Stallone’s incredible pad includes two powder rooms, a formal dining room, a massive kitchen, a breakfast room, and an office. He also ensured to include custom amenities such as a movie theatre, gym, and cigar room with an air-filtration system, an eight-car garage including an art studio, as well as a life-size Rocky Balboa statue that anchors the memorabilia room.  

Containing plenty of room for visitors, Stallone’s property also has a two-story, two-bedroom guesthouse with a kitchen, designed by celebrity architect Richard Landry. Outside offers a patio, infinity pool, and spa. Balconies and terraces overlook the scenic space from above.

The listing for Stallone’s Beverly Park mansion is held by Rick Hilton, Jeff Hyland, Barron N. Hilton, and Tessa Hilton of Hilton & Hyland.
