Find Out What Your Home Is Really Worth!

A rare and singular achievement on one of the City of Beverly Hills' most storied streets, this extraordinary two-story, four-bedroom estate is nothing short of an architectural love letter, a newly-built Arts and Crafts cottage conceived with the passion of a collector and executed with the precision of a master craftsman. Commissioned by a prominent businessman-philanthropist and brought to life by acclaimed interior designer Madeline Stuart and master builder Robert Glaus, the home draws its inspiration from the 1908 Gamble House (the Greene & Greene National Historic Landmark in Pasadena), yet feels unmistakably of the moment. Stuart's genius lies in threading historical authenticity through a contemporary lens, resulting in interiors that breathe, invite, and delight rather than intimidate. Cedar-shake siding, handwrought iron lanterns, custom stained-glass entry panels, and quartersawn oak floors establish the home's impeccable Arts and Crafts pedigree from the moment you arrive. Inside, the generous proportions of a contemporary Southern California residence unfold across rooms of extraordinary craft and curation, evident in the walnut-paneled walls, the milk-glass skylights that flood the conservatory with California light, the catering-sized kitchen with its quartzite counters and Marmoleum flooring patterned like a marble checkerboard, and the vaulted and wood-beamed and paneled 25+ person dining room, with its circa-1910 iron-and-glass lanterns. Steel windows and doors frame the interiors throughout, giving way to the manicured grounds and stunning lights views of the city below. The media room, paneled in rich warm wood, sets a tone of relaxed, cultured living. A powder room features a commissioned mural by Jean Horihata. The master bath is clad in Calacatta marble with custom cabinetry designed by Stuart. The verdant grounds, designed with mature ferns, pittosporum, native California oak trees, a stand of towering palm trees, and an orchard filled with pomegranates, Meyer lemons, grapefruits and avocados, offer privacy, serenity, and the kind of effortless indoor-outdoor connection that defines the best of California living. A fully-appointed one-bedroom guest house with its own kitchen completes the offering, providing exceptional flexibility for extended family, staff, or visiting guests. This is not a house that was built. It was conceived, obsessed over, and loved into existence. Summit Drive has seen many great homes. This one is something else entirely.
