Set behind a stunning custom-designed gate and a long private drive, this Colonial-style Beverly Hills estate is gracefully surrounded by meticulous custom brickwork and pathways with one-of-a-kind designs. Resting on a nearly one-acre lot, the property balances timeless architecture with modern sophistication. Inside, the residence offers 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms along with exceptional amenities, including a screening/game room, gym, and a wine cellar concealed behind a secret door. At the heart of the home, a beautifully appointed kitchen with butcher block island and large walk-in pantry flows into a bright breakfast area, where French doors open to a tree-lined patio. A large dining room, ideal for entertaining and holiday gatherings, adds to the home's gracious scale. The formal living room opens through French doors directly to the swimmers pool and expansive patio, where canyon views create the perfect backdrop for outdoor dining and entertaining. The primary suite is a private sanctuary with a grand balcony overlooking the glistening pool and gardens, and even includes a hidden door to a spacious attic ideal for an art collection, studio, or private retreat. A distinguished office, finished in floor-to-ceiling custom cherry wood with a wet bar, offers both elegance and functionality. Outdoors, a custom built-in BBQ area anchors the resort-style grounds, complemented by lush landscaping, sparkling pool, expansive motor court, and custom brick pathways with unique designs. The collector's garage is a true showpiece, with space for six cars, a car lift for two, built-in tool stations, plus additional garage capacity for up to 10 more vehicles.Beyond its design pedigree, the estate also features a new 80-panel solar system with backup generator, a copper roof and copper plumbing, and comes with architectural plans for an additional 2,000-square-foot guest house a rare opportunity to expand on one of Benedict Canyon's most distinctive estates. Adding to its character, the property is also known for the iconic gorilla sculpture at the street front, a playful landmark that makes it instantly recognizable. Balancing privacy, scale, and sophistication, 1280 Benedict Canyon is a Beverly Hills Colonial estate of rare distinction, modern upgrades, and limitless potential.
