Last year, Gyorgy Gattyan — one of Hungary’s richest men — finally unloaded his lavish mansion in the Beverly Hills Flats neighborhood for a whopping $26.4 million.
Now the self-made billionaire and so-called “Porn King” — who made his fortune from online erotica, but has since branched out as the owner of Kodolányi University and co-founder of the Prima Primissima Foundation — is looking to sell his other Los Angeles mansion. This one is located in exclusive Beverly Park, a guard-gated community high in the mountains above Beverly Hills.
Gattyan has newly listed the estate with a $33 million ask — a significant increase over the $24 million he paid real estate developer Bruce Makowsky nine years ago. Before that, the place was the longtime home of comedian-actor Martin Lawrence from 2001-2012.
Built in 1992, the white Neoclassical-style structure comes complete with a seven-bedroom, 10-bath main house featuring just over 13,800 square feet of living space on two levels. Additional structures include a 1,000-square-foot guesthouse that currently serves as a gym, plus an attached four-car garage tucked discreetly off to the side of the X-shaped dwelling.
Nestled on a gated 2.2-acre parcel, and separated from the street out front by a lushly landscaped lawn and cobblestone motorcourt, the main house features a columned portico guarded by a pair of lion sculptures. A soaring double front door opens into ornate interiors punctuated throughout with rich hardwood floors, chandeliers and seamless indoor-outdoor environs.
Highlights include a double-height foyer adorned with marble floors and a winding wrought-iron staircase topped by a striking Salvatore Polizzi stained-glass skylight, as well as a fireside living room and wood-paneled dining room. A cozy family room connects to a gourmet kitchen outfitted with an accompanying breakfast nook.
A plush master retreat occupies the entire south wing of the home, and offers a separate room that can be used as an office or reading area, per the listing, along with a Juliette balcony and walk-in closet. There are dual baths, both equipped with luxe amenities like a sauna, steam shower and soaking tub.
Elsewhere is a game room, wine cellar and movie theater sporting its own concession stand; and the posh amenities continue outdoors, where the manicured grounds host a sprawling grassy lawn, pool with raised spa, tennis court, and several areas ideal for al fresco lounging and entertaining.
The listing is held by Jon Grauman and Adam Rosenfeld of The Agency.
