If the heart of your California dreaming includes indoor-outdoor living spaces that rival some of the finest in the world and ample space for hosting grand gatherings or intimate parties, look no further than Casa Oliva. This private sanctuary in LA’s exclusive Bird Streets, and designed by world-famous Scott Shrader, just hit the market at $13,679,000.
Located just above the iconic Sunset Strip, Casa Oliva is a 14,347-square-foot contemporary Spanish home that showcases serene LA living with a backyard designed by California’s most sought-after landscape architect. Shrader is known for his amenity-filled gardens made for life outside and Casa Oliva is no exception.
Set behind mature hedging and gates, hand-forged glass steel doors welcome you to this circa 1934 abode. While the main level features several private living and office spaces, the pièce de résistance is without a doubt the large great room with a custom eat-in kitchen. An expansive marble island, Wolf-Range and double ovens, Sub-Zero Fridge and Miele dishwasher fill the space, which leads to a family room featuring a 13th Century French mantle fireplace, surrounded on two sides by steel French doors.
A sweeping 2-story curved staircase leads you to the second floor. The primary suite features a fireplace with sitting area, balcony and dual spa-like bathrooms with two large custom closets. Two additional bedroom suites, each with balconies, complete the level.
You’ll never have to leave home again with this backyard that rivals some of the finest hotels in the world – featuring a sparkling pool, spa, separate guest house, and an expansive veranda with seating for 16 of your closest friends. The outdoor kitchen with bar and BBQ also includes a restaurant-grade pizza oven.
