Dick Ebersol and Susan Saint James, celebrated veterans of the entertainment industry, have added another impressive property to their collection. They recently purchased a modern farmhouse-style home in the upscale Cheviot Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles for $6.7 million. This newly built residence, completed in 2018, spans approximately 5,800 square feet across two levels, featuring five bedrooms and seven baths.
Situated near the Hillcrest Country Club on nearly a quarter-acre lot, the home boasts European oak floors, high ceilings, and modern amenities such as a capsule-style elevator and a Control4 smart-home system. Upon entry through a grand double-height foyer, visitors are greeted by a fireside living room and a formal dining room adorned with a striking chandelier. The family room, at the rear of the home, includes a fireplace set into a charcoal-hued accent wall and opens onto a terrace equipped with a built-in barbecue and bar.
The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, dual islands, and top-tier Asko, Sub-Zero, and Wolf appliances. Additional features of the home include a tiered movie theater, a loft area for casual entertainment, and a spacious office with its own bath. The primary suite, located upstairs beneath a vaulted ceiling, offers a fireplace, two walk-in closets, and a luxurious marble-clad bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a glass-encased shower.
Outdoors, the private backyard is perfect for entertaining, featuring a pool and spa, a fire-pit conversation area, and a detached building currently used as a gym. An attached two-car garage completes the property’s amenities.
