Property Description

Click! The gates swing open, do you play pickleball, lounge by the pool, go to the movie theater? Casa De Amestoy, is a true old Hollywood resort; a rare 1938 La Quinta-style estate in prestigious Amestoy Estates. This architectural gem blends timeless elegance with modern luxury, offering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Resting on over an acre of flat land, the property is a private retreat with a tennis court (or TWO pickleball courts), expansive pool, sauna, guesthouse, and fully equipped cabanas. The single-story, 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom main house embodies classic Hollywood charm with contemporary updates. High ceilings and expansive windows flood the space with natural light, while the primary suite offers a private patio, spa-like en-suite bath, and a spacious walk-in closet. A chef’s kitchen, outfitted with Viking appliances, a full-sized freezer and refrigerator, and Elkay water filtration, ensures culinary perfection. Smart home-controlled lighting, zoned climate control, and integrated sound enhance modern convenience without compromising historic character. Entertainment abounds, from a vintage in-home movie theater that channels Hollywood’s golden era to poolside cabanas featuring a sound studio, office or gym, and full bath. The retro-inspired guesthouse, complete with a kitchen, living, and dining area, offers a nostalgic yet luxurious escape. More than just a home, Casa De Amestoy is a lifestyle—one of elegance, comfort, and effortless California living.
