Description

The number one best iconic 2.2-acre view property in the city that has it all. In the heart of Beverly Hills, just minutes from the legendary Beverly Hills Hotel, 1309 Davies Way delivers total privacy, panoramic city views, and a level of refinement reserved for the truly exceptional. Set on its own private promontory and located adjacent to the Pritzker, Murdoch, and future Gates family estates, this Modern Tuscan masterpiece is steeped in rare Hollywood legacy. Once home to Ricky Martin for many years, previously owned by English actor Michael Caine, and before that held by Doris Day's family, the estate carries an iconic lineage that mirrors its stature. Behind gates, a long, curving, tree-lined drive builds cinematic anticipation before opening to a grand motor court. Recently reimagined through a multi-year renovation, the residence blends timeless Mediterranean romance with modern precision, offering a living experience that feels both classic and commanding. Inside, walls of glass frame explosive head-on city and coastal views stretching across the city to the Pacific. Nearly every primary room, terrace, and outdoor retreat is oriented to the horizon, creating a constant dialogue between architecture and landscape. By day, the home is flooded with light; by night, it hovers above a constellation of city lights. The grounds unfold like a private resort: expansive lawns, manicured gardens, orchard, guest house, and a championship tennis court with pavilion, all designed for grand-scale entertaining and effortless SoCal living. The great room and chef's kitchen open directly to the outdoors, while a private theater and spa-level amenities complete the experience. The primary suite is a sanctuary in the sky, featuring its own terrace, sitting room, dual baths and dressing rooms, and flexible spaces tailored to a world-class lifestyle. Private, gated, and irreplaceable in location, history, and view, 1309 Davies Way is not just a residence, it's a legacy estate reserved for the few.
