Los Angeles can be a crazy city. Once you consider the hustle, the hurry, and the never-ending traffic, it’s no wonder that, come day’s end, many Angelenos retreat to the solace of their green-shielded homes. Of course, if your income statement is a little more robust, you can afford to put a little more padding between yourself and the concrete jungle. If your bank account can handle the $15.75 million price tag, you may want to consider this 7,187 square foot contemporary farmhouse, which formerly served as the urban refuge of MGM executive Roger Birnbaum.
Set on a small but green-filled lot deep in a Beverly Hills, CA, canyon, the comfortable 4-bed, 5-bath home has spacious rooms for living and entertaining that culminate in the dramatic two-story living room with floor-to-ceiling windows. Upstairs, the master suite is equipped with an adjacent study and sitting room, while downstairs is a wine cellar and staff quarters. A large kitchen, gym, and media room are also part of the blonde-hued interiors.
Outside is an entertaining paradise: a stone-hemmed lap pool and lush gardens surround an oversize covered patio anchored by a flagstone fireplace. An outdoor dining area and pizza oven promise that Friday Pizza Nights will never be lackluster. And should you ever need a reminder that the city is still there, take in views of the city skyline from the second floor balcony.
Roger Birnbaum co-founded Spyglass Entertainment in 1998 was named co-chairman and CEO of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. in 2010. He has also worked in prominent positions on the board of other top-level studios, including Caravan Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox, and has produced many box office hits including “The Sixth Sense”, “Bruce Almighty”, “Seabiscuit”, “Memoirs of a Geisha”, and “27 Dresses”.
