Beverly Hills Welcomes Back a Prized Mansion for Sale at a New Price
In the glamorous world of Beverly Hills, one particular estate is back on the market, and it’s turning heads yet again. Villa Andalusia, owned by the creator of the beloved show “Full House,” is relisting for just under $50 million. That’s right, folks!

A Brief History with a Dark Past
Located on a notorious site, this expansive property is more than just stunning—it also carries a heavy history. It sits on the infamous grounds of the 1969 Manson murders, where actress Sharon Tate and others lost their lives. Although the original home was demolished in the 1990s, having been rented by musician Trent Reznor, the current owner went to great lengths to erase any connections to the past, making it a fresh start for the estate.
Modern Luxuries in a Historic Landscape
Spanning over 3.5 acres and encompassing a whopping 21,000 square feet of luxurious space, the reimagined Villa Andalusia is designed by noted architect Richard Landry, known for his work with many high-profile clients, including celebrities like Dr. Dre and members of the Kardashian clan. With nine bedrooms and 18 bathrooms, this mansion is nothing short of a playground for wealthy buyers.
Outdoor Delights and Interior Wonders
The outdoor amenities are incredible, boasting a koi pond, cascading waterfalls, a lazy river, a thrilling 35-foot water slide, and even a concealed grotto. It’s like having your own resort right in your backyard! Inside, the design reflects a blend of European architecture and Asian cultural elements, focusing on the California lifestyle of indoor-outdoor living.
Unique Features That Dazzle
The estate doesn’t shy away from unique touches. It features a cozy wood-paneled billiards and poker room, a built-in aquarium that separates the sitting and dining areas, and yes, the fish are included in the sale! The property is fitted with smart home technology that fits right into the future—some are calling it the ideal setting for a James Bond villain!
Unmatched Views and Luxury Amenities
One of the highlights of Villa Andalusia is its breathtaking panoramic views stretching from the city right to the ocean. On clear days, you can behold the distant skyline of Pasadena. The 40-foot foyer welcomes you with a grand fountain, while the living space oozes elegance. And for those who love to cook, the chef’s kitchen is outfitted with high-end appliances and even includes a stone pizza oven, all framed by dramatic windows that flood the space with light.
The Ultimate Retreat
The primary suite is a retreat of its own, featuring dual balconies and a spa-like bathroom with exceptional views. But it doesn’t stop there—the estate also boasts an impressive home theater, a captivating game room, a wet bar, a hair salon, a luxurious spa, a gym, and a subterranean garage fit for up to 16 cars. Imagine the parties and gatherings you could host in such a magnificent space!
In Conclusion
