Georgian residence in Brentwood, previously dwelling of Audrey Hepburn, now up for sale after 34 years.
'Buying a piece of Hollywood history ain't everyday, y'all. Recently, a 1939 Georgian beauty with a Southern twist hit the market in Brentwood, Cali, and I can't help but get all nostalgic about the good ol' days of Tinseltown.
Once owned by Mildred and Edwin Knopf, relatives of renowned publisher Alfred Knopf, this bad boy's had its fair share of famous peeps pass through the doors. Deborah Kerr and her husband, Peter Viertel, were among the lucky ones, and yes, none other than the radiant Audrey Hepburn leased the joint twice during her illustrious career.
Now, we're talking a whopping 31,163 square feet of luxury. Five bedrooms, six and a half baths, and a lush backyard with a sparkling pool? You're probably wondering why this celebrity haven has attracted so many high-profile residents over the years. Let's dive in, shall we?
The reception room delivers a perfect blend of tradition and modernity. From the Persian rug underfoot to the marble fireplace, the space feels welcoming and lively, ideal for both intimate gatherings and wild parties.
The dining room is a damn sight impressive, sporting hand-painted wallpaper in red and white courtesy of Gracie. A chandelier with a lantern vibe adds some serious style points, kicking the room's volume up a notch.
This home don't shy away from color, people. Just take a peek at the banquet seating area and you'll see what I mean. The space plays with scale like a pro, from the classic floor tiles to more geometric wallpaper, all coming together in flawless harmony. And let's not forget the modern bench seating for good measure.
The kitchen's all about contemporary vibes, with stainless steel appliances and garden-view windows letting the light flood in. The antique wood shelving unit is the perfect accessory to display beloved dishes and collectibles.
