One of L.A.’s most storied estates is back on the market—and it’s asking $70 million. Originally built in the 1950s for oil tycoon Waite Phillips and later home to Golden Age film star Robert Taylor, the 112-acre Brentwood ranch blends classic Hollywood history with modern luxury. Set behind gates in Mandeville Canyon, the 20,000-square-foot compound has been thoroughly updated with a casino lounge, gym, massage room, and even a dog spa. There’s also equestrian infrastructure, guesthouses, and a playhouse, all just minutes from Rodeo Drive. It’s a rare mix of space, privacy, and pedigree in one of the city’s most coveted zip codes.
