Nearly 100 years after his move to Hollywood in 1928, the house where Howard Hughes lived when he produced his biggest movies, which was also used as a film location in The Aviator, has hit the market for $23 million.

The majestic Spanish Revival estate, designed by famed architect Roland E. Coate, sits on the 8th green of the Wilshire Country Club, where Hughes loved to golf. The 10,179-square-foot home has been thoughtfully updated but retains original details such as wood-beamed ceilings and red-clay floor tiles.

The half-ellipse-shaped mansion is gated and surrounds a striking cobblestone central courtyard with a fireplace. The chef’s kitchen boasts polished brass countertops, gold-tiled splashbacks, and a 24-foot island.

The voluminous family room sports floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. Big windows offer views of the golf course, the Hollywood Hills, and the iconic Hollywood Sign. Eight bedrooms are joined by a screening room, a 2,500-bottle, temperature-controlled wine vault, and an attached guest residence with a full kitchen and bath.

The expansive backyard features lush greenery, many varieties of citrus trees, multiple lounge areas, a custom pizza oven, and a swimming pool. The home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Hancock Park is an upscale Los Angeles neighborhood known for its architecturally important homes. A haven for Golden Age celebrities, some of Hughes’ neighbors included Mae West, Clark Gable and Nat King Cole.

Contemporary stars who call the region home include Margot Robbie and Fred Savage.

The listing is held by David Berg and F. Ron Smith of the Smith & Berg Partners team at Compass.
