Description

A Pacific Palisades Landmark and Historic Estate

Villa de Leon -- a landmark estate on the bluffs of Castellammare in Pacific Palisades. Villa de Leon was designed in the early 1920's by renowned architect Kenneth MacDonald. It required more than five years to build this villa for entrepreneur and wool magnate Leon Kauffman.

Villa de Leon is one of Southern California's finest examples of old world craftsmanship. It features hand-painted and hand-carved architectural details, including double-vaulted and coffered ceilings, carved wood paneling and magnificently sculpted iron railings. Built with the finest imported marble and exotic woods, the 12,000+ square foot Villa, features more than 35 rooms, including 9 Bedrooms, 11 Bathrooms, a Main Salon with three exquiste brass chandeliers with hand cut crystals, a library, a circular formal dining room overlooking the ocean, a marble entrance hall with a sculpted circular staircase.
A private driveway leads to an expansive 6+ car garage. Outside, a gated entrance takes you up a grand staircase to sweeping terraces with unobstructed ocean and coastline views to the west, and courtyard areas with commanding mountain views to the east.

Originally featured in the 1928 issue of Architectural Digest, this palatial estate remains the most visible historic landmark along the Palisades-Malibu coastline.
