An 11,000-square-foot home in Santa Monica, Calif., has hit the market for $22 million, according to listing agent Billy Rose, president and co-founder of real-estate firm the Agency. It's owned by a partnership led by designer and developer Elaine Culotti.
Ms. Culotti renovated the six-bedroom, eight-bathroom home, retaining its oak paneling, rounded archways and handcrafted windows. She also worked with several designers, including Ralph Pucci and Sami Hayek, to add modern touches such as chain and crystal chandeliers. The property, now named La Mesa Landmark Estate, also has a two-bedroom guesthouse, a home theater and a professional recording studio on its top floor. The great room has a Lucite Schimmel piano.
