An 8,100 square foot home in Nellie Gail Ranch has set a new sales record for Laguna Hills. The seven bedroom, seven-and-a-half bathroom home on Derbyhill Drive found a buyer in just one month, closing at $10.1 million—making it the most expensive home ever sold in Laguna Hills.
Listed in February of this year, the former owner was initially asking $9.8 million.
Set on a nearly two-acre lot with spectacular views, the custom estate is positioned at the end of a cul-de-sac behind a gated circular driveway. Entertaining spaces include two formal living room areas, a formal two-story dining room and outdoor living spaces.
The main level offers floor-to-ceiling windows with hill views from nearly every room, bi-fold doors for flexible indoor/outdoor living, and an opulent office/library with custom built-ins. The upper level features a bonus room and five ensuite bedrooms.
The exterior features resort grounds with views of city lights, hills and sunset vistas. Amenities include a pool, tennis court, BBQ and covered loggia complete with wrap-around seating, heaters, TV and fireplace.
Melody Smith of Anvil Real Estate held the listing. Denise Dyer repped the buyer.
