Cook in Wolfgang Puck's KitchenThink of the inspiration! Think of the history! Think of the outrageous dinner parties you could throw when you cook in Wolgang Puck’s kitchen. Now you have the rare opportunity to do just that every night of the week, as Puck’s Mediterranean Revival style home in the Beverly Hills flats is on the market for $8.495 million. You’ll have to decide for yourself whether or not the rest of the home, in addition to the kitchen, merits that amount of cheddar.

The 6,025 square foot, recently refurbished casa has five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. It sits on a 12,070 square foot lot almost within walking distance of Puck’s flagship restaurant Spago, in downtown Beverly Hills. The proximity to his home surf and turf could be one of the reasons why the kitchen, while beautiful, well-designed and equipped for home use, is not quite industrial-sized or restaurant quality. Cooking Spago-style at home would be a bit of a busman’s holiday, wouldn’t it?

The house has the thick plaster walls, high beamed ceilings, hardwood floors and wrought iron hardware typical of the Mediterranean style.

Gathering spaces include a living room with an antique stone fireplace,

a library/office, a formal dining room and an open family/great room.

Four of the bedrooms are located upstairs, including an elegant master suite with a fireplace, sitting area, and his-and-hers closets and baths.

French doors and windows throughout the home overlook lush, mature gardens, a grassy yard, a swimming pool,

and several outdoor seating areas for entertaining al fresco with the food you’ve cooked in that fortuitous kitchen.

So why is Puck letting go of this well-situated spread? According to the Los Angeles Times, he’s moved on to something bigger and better, if farther away from Spago. It’s a 12,300 square foot Holmby Hills mansion for which he paid almost $14 million. Even when times are hard, people gotta eat, and if they have their druthers, it will be at one of Puck’s ubiquitous restaurants. He can live, and cook, just about anywhere he wants.

If you’re interested and are pre-qualified (as a buyer, not a chef), you can contact Kurt Rappaport of Westside Estate Agency about the property.
