The long-standing Beverly Hills home of luxury broker Jeff Hyland, who passed away in 2022, is on the market for 23.5 million dollars. Hyland, co-founder of the renowned brokerage firm Hilton & Hyland and author of the definitive work 'The Legendary Estates of Beverly Hills', was for decades one of the most prominent figures in the Californian high-end property market. In 2000, he acquired the estate in the sought-after Trousdale Estates together with his wife, artist Lori Hyland, for just over 2.3 million dollars.
After more than twenty years in family ownership and a modernisation led by Lori Hyland, the property known as Casa Alta Tierra has now arrived on the market. The residence is situated on a private promontory at the end of a cul-de-sac and offers 8,602 square feet of living space. Marketing is being handled by agents Felix Pena and Chad Rogers of Hilton & Hyland.
