A Beverly Hills, California, home where Greta Garbo once hung her hat hit the market Friday for $10 million—a $2 million price cut.
The six-bedroom, six-bathroom house was first listed last summer for $12 million with a different brokerage. It was removed from the market in November, and relisted with Markus Canter, Luxury Properties director at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices. The Swedish-born film star lived there in the 1930s, he said.
Located in the coveted Crest Streets, the property has been reimagined and expanded by the interior designer Nicole Sassaman. She purchased the estate in 2003 for $1.4 million, according to records with PropertyShark, and began a renovation that was one of her biggest projects to date, according to her website.
“She truly created things out of thin air, adding a second story and creating a pool and yard in the previously unused space,” the site said. “The space was built out to have the sophistication and fun of a hillside estate with the balance of a comfortable and smart family home.
The views overlooking the Los Angeles skyline and ocean beyond are “simply a cherry on top,” the site said. Sassaman did not immediately return a request for comment.
Warm woods, stonework and walls of windows are hallmarks of the design, which has an open layout, according to the listing. There’s a kitchen with custom cabinetry and an adjacent dining area.
Outside is an “oasis,” the listing noted, with a pool and spa with panoramic views, several spots for lounging and dining and mature plantings.
“The property embodies the essence of glamor, historic allure and the coveted California luxury lifestyle,” Canter said.
