On June 28th, a rare California property will be going to auction in Brentwood. On a very private 48 acres, previous owners paid special attention to details that make one feel that they may possibly be on vacation in another country, but in reality are surrounded by views of a private lake, colorful gardens and stunning views of the Santa Monica Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Tranquil and serene, the ambiance is like one’s own natural paradise. From every angle, flowers bloom brightly, ancient trees provide shade and the sound of water splashing over rocks into the lake provides a natural calming effect. There are a total of five structures on the property including the main house, caretaker’s house, maintenance building, guest house and a covered pavilion near the lake. High up a hill are two 50,000 gallon water holding tanks fed by a well on the property, one used for the lake and irrigation, and the other as a backup to feed six fire hydrants around the property should they ever be needed. In addition to this excellent safety precaution, the lake is a barrier to wildfire and the land around the main compound is planted in ice plant ground cover which has water filled leaves.
