Christina Estrada — a brunette beauty — starred in the renowned Pirelli calendar and modelled for some of the biggest brands in the world. The actress Estrada — born in the United States — has resided in London since 1998. Estrada was the lone owner of a stunning property in Beverly Hills when her marriage to Saudi millionaire Sheikh Walid Juffali ended in divorce in 2016. The supermodel is asking USD 26 million for the gorgeous mansion. According to the listing agent, Gary Gold, “This is the quintessential Beverly Hills estate located on the best block of the best street in the Flats. This is the type of home you see in a movie portraying the good life.”
Constructed in the 1930s, the estate has undergone extensive restoration, fusing the most recent in contemporary luxury with the priceless quality of a bygone period. The 9,000-square-foot home will be sold fully furnished, featuring five bedrooms, eight bathrooms and upscale contemporary conveniences.
The two-storey house has a striking exterior in the Italian style. The mansion’s columns, arches, wrought-iron accents and magnificent beamed ceilings all exhibit Old World design. Enter through the grand lobby — two stories high, with a hand-painted ceiling, an exquisite chandelier, coved archways, and twin staircases. The formal dining room can accommodate 12 people, and the chef’s kitchen has state-of-the-art appliances and a large butler’s pantry. With access to the yard for outside dining, a comfortable breakfast provides a more laid-back setting.
The sizeable principal suite has a walk-in closet that might rival a supermodel’s closet, a lavishly furnished bathroom with marble accents, a glitzy mirrored powder room and large windows that let in abundant natural light. Three other bedrooms with bathrooms and traditional furnishings can be found upstairs. There is plenty of space for relaxing in the step-down living room with steel-case windows and the lovely great room with a cosy fireplace. Every room exhibits meticulous attention to detail and the stylish yet modest furnishings highlight the house’s classic beauty.
The gorgeous yard features a chic pool, well-kept lawns and towering hedges for plenty of seclusions — creating a resort-like ambience. Using LA’s consistently lovely weather, the den and family room blend indoor and outdoor living seamlessly, and many balconies provide pool views. The covered loggia is particularly beautiful, with elaborate columns and a curtained gazebo. Additional features include a separate guest house with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a five-car garage and a library with built-in bookshelves.
The estate is close to the Getty Museum, the Los Angeles Country Club, the upscale stores on Rodeo Drive and the music and entertainment venues of the Sunset Strip. It is situated right off the famed Sunset Blvd. The Flats — one of 90210’s most upscale areas — is well-known for its exquisite residences on spacious acres. Among the notable inhabitants of the zip code are Katy Perry, Adele, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Aniston, Jack Nicholson, and Ashton Kutcher.
