An’s Residence

Beverly Hills, CA

6,196 sf

Completed 2021

An’s residence is a 6,196 square foot mansion located at Beverly Hills. Prior to being renovated by JH2, Van Pelt & Maybury architects created a masterpiece on iconic Rexford Drive in 1927.

After a century, the owner decided to upgrade the historic residence. While preserving the spatial layout of the heritage, the exterior and interior have been renovated to make it look modern classic with a small addition at the backside of the residence.
