Sugar Ray purchased just under two acres of land
with ocean and canyon views in 1993. But it wasn’t until 1997 that he and his
wife built their home.
Measuring in at 16,773 square feet with seven bedrooms,
it was designed with different wings having planned space for various types of
entertaining from small intimate gatherings to full-blown fundraisers.
Built in the style of Italianesque old-world architecture, the exterior of the house is covered with ivy and the entrance opens into a grand foyer and center hall opening to the various formal rooms.
Fireplaces throughout were imported from
Europe and the stone floors from Jerusalem. There is a chef’s kitchen with
professional appliances and center island with breakfast bar that adjoins the
family room.
Included is a solarium, a media room, large gym and a master suite with fireplace, large bath and walk-in closets and a balcony that takes advantage of the views.
Grounds include pool, spa, putting green and tennis
courts all set on rolling lawns, terraces and lush landscaping. The detached
two-story guest house at the pool has a first-floor kitchen and entertaining
space while the second floor contains a guest bedroom and bath.
