2009 La Mesa Drive
Santa Monica, CA

Located on beautiful La Mesa Drive, this iconic estate in Santa Monica was once the home of silent film star Kathryn Grayson. It also offers a rare and unparalleled setting. With over 200 feet of frontage and dual entry gates, the property is set against a backdrop of magnificent Morton Bay fig trees along La Mesa Drive creating a storybook atmosphere that is both enchanting and sophisticated.

The enormous 3rd story, grand Tudor/Gothic-style mansion was originally built in the 1920s and thereafter expertly remodeled, featuring all-new systems while preserving its timeless architectural beauty. With soaring high ceilings, wide walkways, and stately rooms, including a formal living room with a 28ft cathedral ceiling, family room, and paneled office, the estate exudes an air of old-world charm. The home encompasses 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, plus a separate guest unit.

The expansive grounds are pristine with an infinity pool with a spa, and a 75-foot pool cabana house that provides a stunning backdrop for outdoor gatherings. The estate’s vast lawn spaces and tranquil surroundings create strong impressions and lasting memories.

Dual entry gates and a centered pedestrian gate and path provide seamless access to the property, complemented by ample, on-site parking with an oversized 2-car garage, 2 covered guest spaces, and convenient street parking. This legendary estate offers a rare space that blends history, beauty, and sophistication in a way few other locations can match.
