Cary Grant’s Former Beverly Hills Estate Hits the Market for $78 Million

Almost four decades after Cary Grant passed away at age 82, the Hollywood legend’s final residential landing spot high above Beverly Hills has popped up for sale, asking $77.5 million. Property records show the North By Northwest star acquired the nearly three-acre spread from the wife of his late manager and business partner Frank Vincent in the 1940s for roughly $46,000. He lived there until his death in 1986, at which time the estate was inherited by his widow, Barbara. She married real estate investor David Jaynes in 2001, and together the couple went on to raze the outdated 1940s house on the site and replace it with the modern mansion now on the market. Aaron Kirman of Christie’s International Real Estate and Denise Moreno and Gordon MacGeachy of Hilton Hilton share the listing.

Floor-to-ceiling walls of glass and an expansive network of outdoor terraces overlook picturesque city-to-ocean vistas. “In the old house, you never truly appreciated the views because a lot of the windows were horizontal,” Barbara told Robb Report in a statement. “Now everything is floor-to-ceiling, so you can really see the extraordinary views, which are breathtaking, particularly at night with all the little sparkling lights.” Tucked away off Benedict Canyon Drive, the structure is accessed via a lengthy gated driveway that empties out at a spacious motor court and the original three-car garage. A striking entryway leads via double doors into a foyer displaying a floating sculptural staircase topped with a dangling chandelier. From there, a fireside living room opens seamlessly to terraced grounds decked out with a 52-foot pool, a lighted tennis court, and numerous spots ideal for alfresco lounging and entertaining amid manicured gardens filled with white and cream-colored roses. Other highlights include a formal dining room, plus a sleek Bulthaup-designed kitchen with Gaggenau appliances that Barbara herself helped create because she loves to cook. A posh upstairs primary suite comes with dual walk-in closets and baths.

Among the couple’s favorite spots are the study with all its “beautiful books” and the Dolby Atmos theater. “It’s not just a theater where people put a big screen on the wall and four speakers and drop a projector down from the ceiling,” David said. “We hired a professional company to come in and acoustically design the theater. When I got the details to build this out, it was 17 pages, and I said, ‘My God, this better be better than one of the AMC 14 theaters!” As first reported by The Wall Street Journal, the Jaynes have decided to sell because they are planning to downsize. “It doesn’t mean I won’t miss the house,” Barbara said, “but I’m happy to move to a smaller place.” Click here for more photos of the Beverly Hills residence.
