Inside a $14.95 Million Tarzana Tudor Estate That Features a Full English Pub—and a Price Drop

1 day ago 3

A stately English Tudor estate just 25 miles from Los Angeles has returned to the market with a fresh price drop. Now listed for $14.95 million, the gated residence at 19000 Dorlon Drive offers a blend of old-world craftsmanship and sprawling grounds rarely found this close to the City of Angels.

Perched above the Mulholland Hills Premier Golf & Tennis Country Club (formerly the Braemar Country Club) in Tarzana, the property spans more than four acres across two separate lots—one of which features an 8,700-square-foot residence originally built by architect Ronald Firestone in 1986.

"Firestone founded his design firm in 1959 and worked with notable celebrity clients including Marlon Brando and Carol Burnett," says listing agent Anthony Robles of Christie's AKG. "The property is especially compelling for buyers seeking privacy, scale, and resort-style amenities."

Inside, the six-bedroom home leans fully into its Tudor roots, with a level of detail that feels increasingly rare in newer construction.

A grand two-story foyer opens to hand-distressed walnut floors, intricate stone and woodwork, and soaring ceilings. The great room delivers drama with its double-height scale, while reclaimed stone fireplaces, cathedral-beamed ceilings, and oversized French doors reinforce the home’s timeless aesthetic.

"One especially distinctive detail is the use of 400-year-old imported marble from Cyprus," notes Robles. "It speaks to the home's collected, custom character and the level of materiality throughout the estate." The result is a residence that feels storied rather than trend-driven.

The home was clearly designed with entertaining in mind. A formal dining room can seat up to 20 guests, while amenities like a full English pub bar, wine cellar, and an all-oak library with a marble fireplace elevate the experience. The kitchen is equally impressive.

"The kitchen is one of the home’s standout spaces, featuring a La Cornue chef’s range, oversized center island, dual sinks, beamed ceilings, custom cabinetry, and multiple walk-in and butler’s pantries," says Robles.

In the primary suite, the luxury continues with a sitting room, kitchenette, spa bath, and even a walk-in closet that doubles as a safe room.

Outdoors, the estate transforms into a private resort. Manicured gardens, a large pool, and a fully equipped pavilion overlook the rolling greens of the country club below.

"The grounds have even hosted a wedding with more than 200 guests," Robles says, highlighting the property's capacity for large-scale events. A lighted tennis court, outdoor kitchen, expansive motor court, and separate maintenance structure further enhance functionality.

Despite its secluded feel, the property remains connected to the best of the West Valley, with easy access to Ventura Boulevard’s dining and shopping, as well as nearby enclaves like Calabasas and Encino.

"What separates this property is the combination of acreage, privacy, craftsmanship, scale and views," Robles adds. "It’s not simply a large home, it's a true legacy estate."
