(Really) Great Spaces: Sugar Ray Leonard's Sprawling Italian-Style VillaBy Jameson Doris
Boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard has just listed his Pacific Palisades, Calif., home and it's as grand as the man himself. Nestled in the prestigious Riviera section of the Los Angeles neighborhood, Leonard has listed the 16,773-square-foot property for $51,995,000.
Designed by architect Richard Landry—who is a legend in his own field—the Italian-style villa was built by the Leonards almost 23 years ago. The seven-bedroom estate features a gorgeous ivy-covered facade and a formal foyer which leads to a grand center hall that connects the home's living room, formal dining room, solarium and kitchen. The estate also has a large gym and media room, as well as six massive fireplaces imported from Europe and stone floors imported from Jerusalem. "This home has been a peaceful oasis offering incredible privacy and superior amenities to raise our family," says Sugar Ray's wife, Bernadette. Outside amenities include a detached two-story guesthouse adjacent to the pool, a huge patio space, a spa and a tennis court.
