Bekins Moving Company Mansion!
Bekins Moving Company Mansion!
The Chateau, historic 1925 Craftsman mansion built by the founder of the Bekins Moving Company, is now on the market for the first time since 1965. Within the almost 3 acres of pristine grounds, almost every form of amusement, entertainment venue and the lovely house itself will capture your heart. Usually an estate this grand doesn't have the warmth and intimacy we see here, with its 9 BR and 12 BA only making a dent in all the livable space. The compound is filled with extraordinary features for formal and intimate entertaining. Whether for a family or a large charity function, you will not run out of space or intimacy for the family when you prefer a small gathering. Within the 3 levels of the house, the lower level is the lodge with billiards, bar and lounge; the main floor consists of all the public rooms and the upstairs houses the family rooms. The grounds are equally as fascinating with a large working greenhouse to maintain a fresh landscape, three guest houses, a football/soccer field, pool and croquet court. One acre has an outdoor picnic spot under the shade trees and paths through manicured gardens for strolling, though the must-see is the outdoor stage! Did they leave anything out? Not possible!
With a price drop from $5.99m down to $4.45m, now is the time to take a more serious look!
