Live Like Royalty: California’s Iconic $39.9M Trophy Estate Is a World-Class Showcase of Design and Prestige
In the heart of the exclusive Bel Air Crest community, 2100 Stratford Cir makes a striking return to the market with a listing price of $39,900,000. This stately European-inspired estate is more than just one of the largest private residences in Bel Air—it’s an architectural triumph and a testament to refined California luxury.
Set across 3.52 acres of manicured grounds, the property delivers a complete resort lifestyle while maintaining an air of elegance and discretion. Boasting 17,254 square feet of living space, eight bedrooms, and twelve bathrooms, this estate exemplifies what high-net-worth buyers seek in California real estate today: privacy, amenities, and timeless craftsmanship.
A Masterfully Reimagined Trophy Estate
Originally constructed in 2010, the home has seen a full-scale redesign, curated to meet the expectations of the modern luxury buyer. Its current owners spared no expense during a multimillion-dollar transformation that elevated every square inch of the residence.
As listing agent Jordan Cohen of RE/MAX One explained in an exclusive with Luxury Houses Magazine, “The sellers treated this as their forever home. Every inch was tailored—from the Olympic-sized pool to the custom children’s playhouse—to reflect their lifestyle and a vision for luxury living.”
The grandeur is immediate. A 35-foot-high glass-domed ceiling presides over the double-height foyer, creating an unforgettable arrival experience. The centerpiece kitchen, redesigned with a massive center island and top-tier appliances, opens gracefully to the family room and panoramic canyon views beyond.
The upper level features a commanding primary suite with floor-to-ceiling glass, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom reminiscent of the Four Seasons. Additional guest suites—five upstairs and two on the main level—ensure total flexibility for family and visitors alike.

A Private Resort, Behind the Gates of Bel Air
Beyond its architectural pedigree, what sets 2100 Stratford Cir apart in Los Angeles real estate is the extraordinary range of amenities on the property. The lower level has been designed as an entertainment haven, complete with a state-of-the-art movie theater, expansive game lounge, wine cellar, gym, massage room, and even a private barber shop.
Outdoors, the estate continues to impress. “It’s like having your own private wellness retreat,” Cohen added. “You’ve got a cold plunge, a dry sauna, a tennis court with lights, and open lawns that rival some five-star resorts. No detail was overlooked.”
Children’s play areas, vegetable gardens, multiple fire features, and a chef’s outdoor kitchen offer a family-friendly environment with sophisticated polish. A massive motor court accommodates over 30 vehicles, reflecting the lifestyle of residents who often entertain at scale.

Life Inside Bel Air Crest
As one of Los Angeles’ most sought-after gated communities, Bel Air Crest offers a rare blend of seclusion and accessibility. Known for its elite roster of residents, manicured streets, and full-time guarded security, the neighborhood appeals to discerning buyers who value peace of mind and architectural integrity.
“The lot alone—3.5 acres behind gates—is nearly unheard of in this zip code,” said a local agent familiar with the listing. “Combine that with views, total privacy, and the scale of construction, and it’s clear this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity.”
Residents enjoy proximity to top-rated private schools, boutique shopping in Beverly Hills, dining in Brentwood and Westwood, and cultural icons like The Getty Center. It’s this rare fusion of location and lifestyle that places 2100 Stratford Cir at the pinnacle of California real estate offerings.

Legacy, Lifestyle, and Long-Term Value
Since its last sale in 2021 for $31 million, the property has appreciated substantially in both design and market relevance. Public records indicate a previous transaction in 2016 at $10 million, demonstrating its strong performance in one of the world’s most stable ultra-luxury markets.
As Luxury Houses Magazine notes, 2100 Stratford Cir isn’t just a home—it’s a legacy asset. “This estate isn’t chasing trends,” said Cohen. “It’s built to last, architecturally and financially. The next owner isn’t just buying square footage—they’re acquiring something enduring.”
