Hot Property: Bragging rights for Bel-Air estate
LOS ANGELES - The Bel-Air estate of late Univision billionaire A. Jerrold Perenchio will chart its next course on the public market.
After being quietly shopped since last year as a nine-figure pocket listing, the French Neoclassical mansion known as Chartwell is now for sale in the Multiple Listing Service for the high-water price of $245 million.
Now the most expensive home for sale in the U.S., the estate is among eight homes publicly listed for $100 million or more in the Los Angeles area. It's on track to topple the Los Angeles County price record of $110 million, which was set in April when Peter Morton sold his oceanfront home in Malibu.
