Hollywood Hills Glass Garage!
Hollywood Hills Glass Garage!
Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For SaleIt’s no secret that Los Angeles real estate sales have been flying off the charts since 2012. But fortunately for the discerning house hunter and especially a serious car collector, this offering in the Hollywood Hills is still available. It’s the stunning contemporary Mulholland Drive estate of Jack Corwin, founder and president of Huntington Holdings, Inc., a private merchant and investment banking firm, which specializes in arranging capital for acquisitions and who is a well-known car collector. In an interview with The Auto Channel, Corbin said that he’d loved cars since he was a kid, but he doesn’t just collect cars, he’s a track and rally driver and actually drives his fabulous collection of Ferraris in these events. He claims his passion for cars is matched by his love of modern architecture and design where he can display and enjoy his art collection and sculptures. Here he says he can sit in his glass house and look across the lawn to his glass garages and his favorite cars.
The 7,614 square foot modern house is built on almost an acre in the now subdivided former ranch of 1940’s actor Errol Flynn, Mulholland Farm. Flynn was well known not only as one of the most romantic male film stars of all time, but as somewhat of a womanizer and his farm was notorious for its casino, passageways, peepholes and two-way mirrors. A lover of fast women and fast cars, Flynn would likely have approved of Corbin’s two glass garages. The interior of the home has huge open spaces for entertaining on a grand scale with glass walls through which the view over Los Angeles can be seen from one side and the lawn and garages from the other. There are a total of five bedrooms and seven bathrooms with a large master suite, a private guest bedroom suite, a gym and media room. The exterior also has a swimming pool and a one-bedroom guest house. The garages, one attached to the home and the other separate, will hold up to nine very special cars. The house is extremely private and accessed via a long gated drive. For more information.
