This landmark Estate, known as Pyne Castle, is located at 770 Hillcrest Drive in Laguna Beach, CA. E. Walter Pyne, who was a Santa Ana-based piano company owner and oil millionaire, built the mansion in 1927. It is situated on 3.5 acres of prime ocean view property. The 18,300 square foot estate was originally a 62 room mansion and has since been converted into 16 apartments. It boasts a total of 17 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms. Surrounding the Castle, the grounds are just as stunning as the house itself, with elegant residences or guest cottages in park-like setting of rose gardens, magnificent old trees, manicured sweeping lawns and fountains. It was once considered as The Western White House for Presiden Nixon. It is listed at $15,000,000. Thanks to Dane Pavlik for the tip!
