In the market for a Versailles-inspired mansion? This Holmby Hills residence was custom-built in 1990 for the founder of Architectural Digest, with its design inspired by Marie Antoinette’s 18th century ‘Petit Trianon’ in Versailles. 

The 6 bedroom, 12 bathroom home spans 11,000 square feet, with grand features throughout, like its 46-foot dome and twin Italian rose marble staircases, and an 18th century Baccarat crystal chandelier. 

The panelled living room and library features the same Bordeaux-patterned cherry wood flooring seen in Versailles’ Hall of Mirrors. 

The 0.97 acres of grounds of this Los Angeles mansion are equally extravagant, with lush greenery, several fountains, a tennis court, a pool and hot tub.
