A legendary fashion designer is trying to sell his 60-room Los Angeles mansion for $88 million
The 60-room California mansion, called "Maison du Soleil", has it all: 17 bedrooms, a pristine pool and pool house, tennis court, huge living spaces, a 6,000-square-foot movie theater, fitness center, greenhouses, and entertaining patios and gardens galore.
"The house is off the charts," listing agent Alla Furman told Business Insider. Furman and Branden and Rayni Williams of Hilton & Hyland have the listing.
Originally built in the 1930s by the classic California architect Paul Revere Williams, the three-acre property is set on iconic Sunset Boulevard in Holmby Hills, an exclusive Los Angeles neighborhood bordering Beverly Hills and populated by bold names. It's about a five-minute walk to the infamous Playboy Mansion, which is also currently on the market.
According to public records, Azria and his wife purchased the house in 2005 and spent $30 million on renovations, the Wall Street Journal reports. The 30,000-square-foot manse is filled with unique touches, from a domed gold-leaf ceiling in one room to a "frozen waterfall" chandelier made up of 150,000 individual crystals.
Last year, it was put on the market for $85 million, but it failed to sell and was delisted. The new $88 million price tag is a "lucky number," Furman said. "If you're there, it's worth every penny."
