A bustling city life, celebrities, and some of the most luxurious residences in the world can be found in Los Angeles – and more specifically in Beverly Hills. Built in 1946 by Randolph Hearst, the legendary Beverly House (listed by Hilton and Hyland) exemplifies it all, featuring one of the longest driveways in the city, Hearst’s famous two-story library with wrap-around balcony and bookshelves, and appeared in films such as “The Godfather” and “The Bodyguard.” Coming in at a whopping $135 million, you will never own a more over-the-top luxurious second home in Southern California.

For celebrities, Rodeo Drive-like shopping at El Paseo, and an oasis of luxury – all without the Beverly Hills price tag – the Palm Springs and Palm Desert area is one of the best places to buy second homes in Southern California. More than 50% of the nation’s wealth is represented there, and there are always incredible real estate opportunities. Cholla Palms estate (listed by Keller Williams Realty), for example, a Spanish Mediterranean oasis with castle-like turrets, will be available at luxury, no reserve absolute auction. All furniture will accompany the home upon sale, making Cholla Palms one of the best turn-key vacation homes you’re likely to see. This unique buying opportunity will occur on April 30th; contact Luxury Real Estate Auction House Supreme Auctions at 866-929-2243 or via email for more information.

This home’s 5 bedrooms and 3 baths also allow you, your family, and guests to enjoy activities like mountain biking and hiking, or more relaxing ventures like Black Jack and a vivid night life.  And, while you won’t find many celebrities walking the streets, performers like Brad Paisley, Imagine Dragons, and Elton John have been known to play at the Outdoor Arena at Harveys.
