Bezos is establishing himself into Hollywood royalty with this Iconic Estate.

Originally called Jack Warner Estate, the property was originally constructed for Jack Warner (creator of Warner Bros) in the 1930s.

It became the epitome of Hollywood’s golden era of luxury and exclusivity.

Warner, an iconic figure in the film industry, used the mansion as a venue for extravagant parties that were attended by a who’s who of Hollywood, including stars like Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, and Frank Sinatra
