My father was the general supervisor that built this house for a company called the JD group. I got to run around the entire thing during its 3 year (i think) construction period as a kid. Shit is huge
@mscm82 your so right i read an intervieuw a few weeks ago it was right before she gave birth to the twins she admited that she had an other home in LA but she didn't say it was fleur de lys but if its true damn mariah got taste,
She didn't buy it she made an offer but nothing materialized. The Fleur de lys was put back on the market after the Manor was sold. It is still for sale and the price has not changed.
The house is beautiful but someone needs to redecorate. Mariah needs to get the same person who decorated her penthouse to decorate. That place is beautiful too.
I really liked the design the house all that marble, carving & old French/kings furniture & accents, lighting an all …real gorgeous from head to toe. Just didn’t liked the Gold accents on walls and poles , looks ugly to me
I don't like anything about this house, it's barren out front and back, and the interior is tacky. Give me some interesting and appealing architecture with some landscaping.
Whether it's more appropriate for a public building than a home, the architecture & construction quality of this building are very, very good. They dont make buildings like this anymore (unfortunately) & the attention to detail is impeccable. But $125 million is overpriced. Probably bc they were very picky about materials (like a very specific limestone), the antique furniture, and the totally unnecessary gold trims everywhere. Then again, if you're a filthy rich bastard w/money to waste....
IMO, nothing wrong with a house this size or price. My only problem with this place is it doesn't seem like a house at all, more like a museum. Not very comfortable.
why would you wanna live in a museum? it looks silly. it´s the same thing with dresses, just because you can get in it doesn´t mean it looks good on you. same with houses just because you can afford it, it doesn´t mean you should have it.
@WhoSUrDaddy2134 Holmby Hills. This is the ultra high end side of the "Platinum triangle" which is...Beverly Hills, Bel Air & Holmby Hills. I suggest wikipedia for more info.
i like the outside and the gardens, im not too crazy about the indoor decor, its too much, almost obnoxious. BTW they filmed an audi commercial at this house.
Mssr. mbostrom, Your opinions expose an arrogant exceptionality & ignorance, & rudely contradict French experts on Beaux Artes Francois design. 'Fleur de Lys' won the Chevalier de lOrdre des Arts et Lettres (Knights of the Order of the Arts & Literature) Frances highest cultural award (past recipients include Picasso, Matisse, Manet) France's Minister of Culture & Ambassador to U.S.A. presented this in Los Angeles to the Sapersteins. Oh, your 'Little Napoleon Complex' is showing darling.
What a great impression you make when you start of by exchanging the word francaise (french) francois (a name). There is no such term as "beaux arts francaise" design outside uneducated petite-bourgoise circles in america. If you can't think of any other reason why a billionaire would receive a prize than his or her excellent taste you lack imagination. 18th century french architecture has been my hobby since i was the age of ten, i think my opinion on this house is relevant and informed.
love your comment's Look@see1now! The house is truly magnificent. Let's remember this is NOT France, this is Hollywood after all. And Suzannes's home is about as beautiful as it get's out here, so is her collection of antiques, several that belonged to Marie Antoinette. It is a true honor and privilege to see them and the home.
very embarassing to call it a louis XVI desk wnen it is in fact not at all... it's a regence..period between louis XIV and louis XV, that is about fifty yeatrs older and in almost the opposite style to what is claimaed in the video..
That kind of bullshit is what makes europeans think of americans as very uncultured... i could have designed this home stylistically when i was twelve... pathetic architecture really...
Sounds a little like sour grapes. I agree the host description is not correct, but the house is magnificent. If you would have ever spent time there and knew the owners and how and where they acquired the antiques, you would feel differently.
I think perhaps you fail to realise that i study architecture and have had as my main interest since i was about eleven french eightenth century architecture... so i probabely see the house better than you in many ways even though i haven't had the pleasure to visit. I actually used to make designs for eightenth century houses as a child :).
If you know the owner, tell her to get in touch and i'll help her redecorate ;) , i gotz the know how...
Mssr. mbostrom, Most Europeans & cultured world citizens know not to confuse a TV announcer of limited expertise (in any country) with an entire nation's socio-cultural sophistication.
Some think of you "as very uncultured...a pathetic kind of bullshitter really..." Oh, its not usually spelled 'claimaed' - but for a "twelve year old stylistically"..... perhaps so, darling.
I own a house similar to that, on The Sims haha!
