The phrase “live like a rockstar” is quite apt for this amazing home in one of Los Angeles’s most exclusive neighborhoods. This incredible residence exists only because Rod Stewart’s dreams of playing professional soccer went down in flames, spurring him to try his Plan B: music. More than a bit outlandish, just like its owner, the yellow, three-level, 28,500-square-foot home—featuring nine bedrooms, 10 full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms—is essentially a compact resort designed and built by Mr. Stewart and set on a sprawling, walled, 3.26-acre lot within the very private and protected confines of North Beverly Park.
Double gates guard a private drive to the motor court, which is accented by a burbling fountain and an adjacent 4,500-square-foot guest home. Past double doors, the grand foyer leads to a great room designed to host large gatherings—with wood inlay flooring, a hand-painted bar, and French doors leading to the manicured grounds. The gourmet kitchen has a family-style dining area flanked by two sitting areas—a tea room and a den—both decorated in English style, with fireplaces and loggias. The main level also includes a wood-paneled library with a marble fireplace and floor-to-ceiling wooden bookshelves, a formal dining room with seating for 20, and a room dedicated to the enjoyment of wine. The tour continues past the speakeasy room, featuring wood flooring and Brèche de Vendôme marble and a spacious screening room in which to enjoy the latest movies.
A double staircase leads to the second level, where the master bedroom features huge dual bathrooms, cavernous his-and-hers closets, and a terrace overlooking the pool and grounds, with views of the city and canyons beyond. Other notable features include a soccer field, a tennis court, two gyms, a resort-quality pool and spa area, a 30-foot-tall waterfall, and an alfresco dining area with a fireplace and barbeque grill.
