Tour 2 Celebrity-Worthy Lakefront Estates

Built in 1927, this Lake Arrowhead estate was once a popular vacation spot for Hollywood royalty, including Marilyn Monroe, Rock Hudson and Cary Grant. The 3.85-acre, 15,000-square-foot waterfront compound has a gatehouse, detached caretakers’ quarters and five accessory buildings on its sprawling grounds. Magnificent Obsession and many other films and TV shows have been shot here, and it was once owned by MCA founder Jules Stein.

An atrium-style glass ceiling floods this conservatory with natural light. Floor-to-ceiling windows also provide optimum lake views.

A high ceiling, oversized chandelier, windows galore, marble floors and classic furnishings infuse this great room with Old Hollywood glamour.

Not many lakeside estates boast of a full tennis court and other recreational features like tetherball and an in-ground trampoline. And then there are the water sports: Hilltop boasts four boat docks and its own beach.

Hilltop sits behind gates and plenty of foliage, but once you enter the grounds, a sweeping brick driveway delivers you to the front door, or you can drive around to the state-of-the-art classic car/motorcycle restoration and display area.

It may look like an East Coast mansion, but this 17,000-square-foot estate sprawls over three massive lots right on the Lake Arrowhead shore, just a couple of hours from Los Angeles.

An elegant entry foyer with a sweeping staircase and slate flooring leads into a dramatic great room. No expense has been spared on the craftsmanship of this estate.

This two-story formal dining room is warmed by an elaborate fireplace, seats at least 20 and has expansive Lake Arrowhead views.
