Matt Jackson and Maha Dakhil Jackson have recently placed their charming 1920s Spanish hacienda, nestled in the Hills of Beachwood Canyon, Los Angeles, on the market. This prominent power couple in the entertainment industry, renowned for their successful careers in film production and talent representation respectively, have listed the property for just under $5 million. This asking price signifies an impressive increase of approximately $1.6 million from their acquisition of the residence almost nine years ago, back in the summer of 2014.
Constructed in the late 1920s, this Spanish-style estate has been meticulously preserved throughout the years. Prior restoration efforts were undertaken by the proprietors of GARDE, a well-known Los Angeles design emporium. Subsequently, the current owners engaged the services of interior designer Mandy Graham to further elevate the allure of the property.
Spanning across 3,650 square feet, the house comprises four bedrooms and four bathrooms. Its interiors showcase wide-plank white oak floors, lofty wood-beam ceilings, bespoke tilework, and intricately forged Belgian hardware. Moreover, the residence provides captivating panoramic vistas encompassing Downtown L.A., the Griffith Observatory, the iconic Hollywood sign, and even glimpses of the ocean.
Positioned on over a quarter-acre of land, the two-story structure is encased in white stucco and crowned with a terracotta roof. Concealed behind gates and bordered by verdant hedges, the property exudes an air of seclusion. A turret-adorned entrance topped with a slender wrought iron-encased window contributes to the property’s distinctive character. A discreetly located driveway leads to an attached two-car garage, while a brick pathway meanders through a well-manicured lawn, culminating at the olive-green front door.
Upon entering, a double-height foyer welcomes visitors, complete with a gracefully winding mosaic-tiled staircase that descends to an expansive fireside living room. This room is graced with a wall of arched French doors that open outwards, infusing the space with abundant natural light.
Additional highlights on the main level encompass a cozy sunroom featuring a fireplace, a formal dining room adorned with a captivating sculptural light fixture, and a gourmet kitchen boasting an eat-in island, a La Cornue range, and a circular breakfast nook complete with built-in banquette seating.
The upper level houses three en-suite bedrooms, including a master retreat with a private balcony and a commodious walk-in closet. The master suite also boasts a beautifully restored vintage bathroom. While the property may not include a swimming pool, the flat and verdant backyard presents an expansive covered terrace, forming an ideal setting for outdoor relaxation and entertainment against the backdrop of awe-inspiring vistas.
