The late Muhammad Ali’s estate built by renowned landmark architect John C. Austin, known for his work on the Griffith Observatory and Los Angeles City Hall, has been listed for $16,995,000 by Gary Gold, a Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialist affiliated with the Beverly Hills office of Coldwell Banker Realty. Located at 55 Fremont Place in Hancock Park, Calif., the residence has nine bedrooms and eight bathrooms.
“Once owned by the legendary Muhammad Ali, this property is a legend in its own right,” said Gold. “Built in 1916, the estate truly possesses unmatched quality, painstaking detail and craftsmanship. Located in the guard-gated community of Fremont Place, the property sits on an approximately 1.6-acre flat corner lot with a commanding presence and an abundance of amenities.”
Showcasing a half-circle awning with colorful stained glass by Louis Comfort Tiffany over the entrance, the luxurious home encompasses a grand entry hall with marble floors and columns, den with a full wet bar and formal dining room with a chandelier and bright breakfast nook. With a fireplace, built-in shelves and bay windows, the wood-paneled living room is connected to a light-filled circular sun room with a glass roof.
Upstairs, the opulent primary bedroom boasts a fireplace and access to a private column-lined gazebo deck overlooking the gardens. A secondary bedroom has a fireplace and an attached sitting area with direct access to a private deck. Two bedrooms are currently used as offices, including one with a series of oversized Tiffany stained-glass windows. In addition to a three-car garage, the estate grounds offer a large guesthouse, hidden gardens, sweeping lawns, stone terraces and a lush pool area with a fireplace sitting area.
