Casa Encantada: Los Angeles Trophy Estate in Bel Air

Casa Encantada is on the market for $195,000,000 co-listed with Kurt Rappaport of Westside Estate Agency and Drew Fenton of Carolwood Real Estate.

Set above the Bel Air Country Club, the 8.4 acre estate boasts one of the most prestigious addresses in Los Angeles, hidden from view behind grand stone gates.

The property was built in 1937 for a wealthy widow, Hilda Boldt Weber, a former nurse who married multimillionaire Cincinnati glass manufacturer Charles Boldt.

Architect James E. Dolena designed the Georgian-style property to take in the city, ocean, and garden views from each of its 60 rooms, which feature custom interiors by design legend T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings.

Casa Encantada was also home to hotel magnate Conrad Hilton for over 30 years, and continued its legacy for lavish parties in the mansion and on the grounds which feature koi ponds, greenhouses, rose gardens, a tiled 80 ft pool and an architectural pool house with a formal bar and a Hollywood-worthy screening room. Ideal for entertaining, the ground floor has an abundance of grand reception rooms with 18 foot ceilings and rich detailing. The private living quarters with 7 bedrooms are tucked away on the second level.

Casa Encantada was fully restored in 2000 under noted architect Peter Marino in the Old Hollywood style, updated for modern standards of luxury while restoring much of the authentic detailing of the timeless estate.

The LA trophy estate comes with a tennis court, basketball court, greenhouses, and plenty of guest and staff accommodation.
