Cheryl Tiegs was the model for which the term "Supermodel" was coined in the 1970s at the height of her career. Is there anyone who isn’t familiar with her Sports Illustrated swimsuit affiliation? Her picture graced the covers of issue years 1970, 1975 and 1983 and increased sales worldwide. In 1978 the poster of Cheryl in a pink bikini quickly became an iconic pop culture image of the 1970s.

Cheryl was noted for being first at many things we take for granted today. She was the first to start a signature line of clothing and accessories which were sold at Sears. During the 10-year life of that business, almost a billion dollars of her merchandise was sold.

Cheryl began modeling when she was 17, appearing on the covers of Glamour, Seventeen and Elle. Her fresh-faced beauty inspired teenaged girls and young women to buy her beauty book, The Way to Natural Beauty, in the hope that they would discover some wonderful secret that would turn them into glamor girls in their own environments.

With her modeling career taking her all over the world, Cheryl was able to pick from her own experiences how she wanted to live. When it came time to buy her own home, she found solace and inspiration in the Balinese way of life and duplicated that environment in her own Bel Air home.

Now for sale, her tropical enclave is situated on 1.43 lush acres behind gates that open to a long drive giving privacy and entrance into the enchanted world of the deep tropics. Palms, huge Monstera vines and tropical flowers abound in the landscape and along paths. The house itself is a study in bold natural elements, textures and colors from fabrics, floors, glass walls opening to vegetation and stunning hilltop views. The 4,770 square foot house has 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, huge open spaces for entertaining both inside and out, a wine cellar, pool and guest house.
