Villa Delle Fontane - Pacific Palisades Escape the bustling City to a hidden, charming, European-style countryside jewel wonderfully located on an unassuming cul-de-sac street in the exclusive and beautiful Riviera area of the Palisades. Built in 1997, with recent designer updates, this approximately 5,500 sq ft two story villa has a very flexible floorplan consisting of up to 6 bedrooms and 5 ½ baths. Upstairs has three master suites with fantastic terraces and abundant western views. As an added bonus, one of these suites could be used as a separate guest apartment with kitchenette and its own entry. The downstairs has a fabulous library, guest suite, a maid’s room/gym, an oversized living room, fabulous dining room, gourmet kitchen with beaumaniere countertops, a huge center island and breakfast area which open into a great room/screening area. In addition, there is a 3-car attached garage, as well as storage rooms and a motor court. Among the fine materials used are 16th and 17th century French pavers, zebrawood floors, giallo dorato limestone flooring, and interesting mosaics. The ½ acre gated oasis is on an elevated, private lot which lies behind elegant tall iron gates and up a hand-laid cobblestone driveway. Antiques interspersed with custom furniture create a comfortable yet elegant feel. The published gardens wend their way around the home with beautiful fountains nestled among the herb gardens, fruit trees, roses, wisteria covered pergolas, and continue their way up the hillside to private sundecks with fabulous views of Will Rogers Park and incredible sunsets behind the Santa Monica Mountains. This is outdoor living at its best with an outdoor stone fireplace, grill and kitchenette next to a quaint imported Provencal fountain. This truly special villa has been a hidden escape for two well known academy-award winners. Now it is finally available for that special sophisticated client who has been waiting for something extraordinary and will cherish what this gem will offer them. For a limited time it is being offered fully furnished; includes all utilities, gardener, fountain maintenance, WiFi-Internet access, DirecTV and weekly maid service.
