Timothy Di Prizito and Joyce Rey, affiliate agents with the Beverly Hills South office of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, have listed the Tudor revival mansion estate of Cheryl and Burton Cummings of The Guess Who for $4,950,000. Located at 3598 Alta Mesa Dr. in Studio City, Calif. the four-bedroom, three-bathroom and approximately 5,000-square-foot estate is perched on an almost two-acre private mountaintop overlooking Wilacre Park and the Santa Monica Mountain Reserve.
“Over five years in development, the estate was completed up to the city's most stringent permitting and code standards,” said Di Prizito. “This truly is an estate for the ages where you can write a screenplay, novel or concerto or record your next album! Sculpt, paint, meditate or win the Nobel Peace Prize. Anything is possible when sitting on top of the world!”
Showcasing exteriors with quarried Texas limestone with classic mahogany half-timbering and plaster as well as interiors with French oak hardwood floors with custom knotty alder, maple, walnut and mahogany carved wood finishes, the home encompasses a dining room, living room with a fireplace, family room with a bar and fireplace, laundry room and an office. The Bertazzoni Heritage kitchen features oil-rubbed bronze and polished nickel fixtures, appliances by Sub-Zero, Wolf and Bosch as well as countertops of Taj Mahal quartzite, granite and Calcutta gold Italian marble. Upstairs, the master bedroom boasts a separate sitting room with a fireplace, built-in shelves, large dressing room and bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower. A secondary master bedroom offers a sitting area, fireplace, walk-in closet and a bathroom with a soaking tub. Other highlights include a pool, various outdoor sitting areas, all LED smart home lighting, smart home compatible digital HVAC system, full home water purification system and an eight-channel Honeywell high-definition remote viewing security system.
“The estate and grounds invoke a complete sense of creative inspiration and serenity only found in fairy tales while only being minutes from Ventura Blvd or Beverly Hills,” said Di Prizito. “Shaded under whimsical Walnuts and great Oaks, the Cummings Castle has it all. With over a dozen view site lines, this engineering and architectural masterpiece is totally one with its surrounding nature.”
