Set among the lush botanical gardens and horseback riding trails of upper Mandeville Canyon, the property features five structures, including a 12,000-square-foot main residence, separate guest houses, a tennis court with pavilion, a caretaker's cottage, a workshop/maintenance building and ample space for horse corrals. The expansive landscape includes rolling pathways, bridges, lush landscaping and extensive terraces. All complement the highlight of the grounds: the grandiose lake at the heart of the estate.

"Working with a property like Amber Hills that has 'best-of-all-worlds' attributes is a pleasure, but it also comes with extremely high expectations and close scrutiny," said Woodward. "I feel privileged to be a part of a team that bested everyone's hopes, walking away with a result that both the buyer and seller are ecstatic about."

"It was a pleasure to once again partner with Concierge Auctions," said Hyland. "The Concierge team orchestrated a wonderful auction which led to the successful sale of this remarkable estate."

"In only four weeks, Concierge Auctions marketed the property throughout Los Angeles and around the world. There's no denying how widespread the awareness was," said Hartley. "We were working on behalf of a family trust, with a number of people involved, and it was nice to not only show every member how much interest was generated, but also to do so in such a short period of time."

"Concierge Auctions offered a very professional experience in representing Amber Hills," said May. "I feel a key component to their marketing strategy's success is having an on-site project sales manager on the property throughout the process."

Concierge Auctions' global marketing campaign generated over 4,800 website visits from 49 US states (led by California, Texas, New York and Florida) and 69 international countries (led by Canada, the UK, Germany and Australia), 160 open house visitors and 34 showings. Five bidders were qualified to compete in the auction.

"Amber Hills is one-of-a-kind because you simply won't find another 48-acre estate right in the middle of Los Angeles," said Rey. "This accompanied with a perfectly executed marketing campaign resulted in the enormous amount of interest that we saw for this wonderful estate."

"Having previously sold the Robert Taylor Ranch, just down the road, we know Mandeville Canyon well and were prepared to perform again with this assignment," said Concierge Auctions Founder and President Laura Brady. "As is typical with our auctions, we were able to not only activate the local market but also engage potential buyers from around the world, many of whom had not even been searching in Los Angeles but became engaged by the opportunity. Ultimately, the property went to an out-of-state buyer."

Concierge Auctions has upcoming luxury property auctions scheduled in Hilton Head, South Carolina, Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Colorado Springs, Colorado and the Central Oregon Coast, and many more are already planned for the summer and fall.
