greenery, it covers a massive 16,000 square feet
to make your way through the grand two-storey entranceway, where floor-to-ceiling glass walls retract and vanish to reveal uninterrupted panoramic views across downtown Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean beyond. As to be expected, the interior design is executed to the highest levels and careful consideration has been given to the creation of multiple social and intimate relaxing spaces, despite the design’s open plan nature. 9272 Robin Drive boasts an indulgent array of lifestyle amenities, from a cinema room, cigar room and wine cellar to an expansive wellness studio complete with fully equipped gym and golf simulator. In the sumptuous master suite a wonderfully indulgent marble bath tub takes pride of place and again, while full height windows can be retracted to create a free-flowing dynamic between the interior and exterior spaces. The focal point of the garden has to be the circular fire pit, which is encased by a curvaceous infinity pool. Benefitting from those same views out over the city to the sparkling ocean, this versatile spot is ideal for business blue-sky-thinking, a contemplative review of a movie script or cosy evenings under the stars with family and friends. For anyone dreaming of Hollywood glamour and LA living, 9272 Robin Drive is the ultimate embodiment of tinsel town and is there for the taking. www.hiltonhyland.com 139
