A Beverly Hills House Is Now On The Market With An Asking Price Of $135 Million



  Beverly House Ups Ante With $135-Million Asking Price -- L.A. Times 

No sooner did the mountain move -- the $125-million Fleur de Lys chateau listing that held the price peak in the Southern California market sold this week for a record-breaking $102 million -- than another pinnacle popped up to take its place at the summit of the price spectrum.

Reentering the fray at $135 million is what's known as the Beverly House, built by local banker Milton Getz in the 1920s and known as the onetime residence of publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst and actress Marion Davies.

Adding more glitter to the pedigree, the six-acre estate in Beverly Hills served as a honeymoon spot for Jacqueline and John F. Kennedy. Unlike socialite Suzanne Saperstein’s Fleur de Lys listing, which had held steady at its asking price since 2007, the 50,000-square-foot Beverly House has been marketed at different prices during the same time frame. Listed at one point for $165 million, the estate was priced most recently at $115 million.

My Comment: If it did not sell at $115 million .... it will not sell at $135 million. But then again .... this is Beverly Hills. The above video is from 2011.

Beverly Hills Mansion That Howard Hughes Flew Into Goes Up For Sale

Luxury: The Spanish Colonial-style mansion was built in 1926, damaged in the crash 20 years later - and is now up for sale for $7million

Crash Pad: $7m Beverly Hills Mansion That Howard Hughes Flew Into Goes Up For Sale -- Daily Mail

Boasting three balconies, a pool and four bedrooms across 6,246 square feet, this Beverly Hills mansion has almost everything a homeowner could wish for - but where is the garage?

The missing element could well be down to the fact that this dream property was once ploughed into by an experimental spy plane piloted by tycoon aviator Howard Hughes.

On the maiden flight of his XF-11 aircraft on July 7, 1946, Hughes ran out of oil and piled into the upmarket Los Angeles neighbourhood, partially demolishing three houses.
