Shari Belafonte, daughter of singer-actor Harry Belafonte who brought calypso into the limelight, is also a singer, actor and model who has graced many a cover of "Vogue" magazine and at least 300 other magazines. Shari, with her perfect Belafonte features and bubbling personality, started making films in 1982 and is well known for her role as Julie Gillette in the five-year run of the television series "Hotel." She has been a spokesperson, co-host with Robin Leach on "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," and has been seen on a number of television series, has made two albums and has just completed travel documentaries on Mexico and the Caribbean. With so much work, the need for decompression is obvious and for years she has escaped to Box Canyon, a suburb of Los Angeles, to her "castle" on six acres of rocky cliff surrounded by 20 acres of unbuildable land. Due to relocation to another state, Sheri has put her castle retreat on the market.

Surrounded by boulders with a waterfall meandering through the property, the "castle" is built of blocked concrete with corbeled arches and there is a corner viewing tower along with a pool and patio on top of a turret from which one can enjoy the waterfall as it splashes down the hillside. At 4,000 square feet, the home has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, Australian walnut floors and Arizona river rock. There are three fireplaces and gourmet kitchen with granite and cherry cabinetry, and a turret gym. For more information
