A 31,600-square-foot Tuscan-style residence in Beverly Park that sought $120 million last spring – and $165 million five years ago – has traded for $52 million.

The family of the late biotech mogul Roy Eddleman sold the nearly 10-acre estate at 67 Beverly Park Court, the Wall Street Journal reported. The buyer was undisclosed. The price works out to $1,656 per square foot.

Eddleman bought the sprawling estate known as Villa Firenze for $51 million in 2021, then listed it for $120 million last May because it was “too much” for him, he told an agent. He died in June, at age 82, while reading “The Rise of Athens” by Anthony Everitt.

The property was last priced at $67.5 million, according to the listing by Sotheby’s International Realty. Broker Richard Klug of Sotheby’s represented the seller; broker Jade Mills of Coldwell Banker Realty represented the buyer. 

The North Beverly Park estate, designed by William Hablinski, took five years to build. It was completed in 1998 with his signature touches, such as vaulted ceilings and carved moldings. 

The property was the longtime home of Hungarian-American aviation billionaire Steve Udvar-Hazy and his wife, Christine, who listed it in 2018 for $165 million, according to Dirt.com.

The two-story mansion, which covers 28,600 square feet, has a Mediterranean red-tile roof, orange stucco and white trim. 

The grounds contain a 30-car motor court surrounded by Canary Island Palms, as well as a pool, several guesthouses, a tennis court and a jogging trail, according to the listing. 

Set within the exclusive gated community in the hills close to Mulholland Drive, the Florence-inspired compound has 20-foot ceilings, antique stone fireplaces and a two-story rotunda library office with “secret passage” to its master suite, den and wet bar. 

Eddleman founded what became Spectrum Labs, acquired by Repligen for $359 million in 2017, according to the Journal. He owned several trophy homes, including a condo at New York’s 432 Park Avenue and the Château de Balleroy in Normandy, France.

This month, “Boogie Nights” star Mark Wahlberg and his wife, Rhea Durham, sold a 30,500-square-foot mansion at 71 Beverly Park for $55 million, or $32.5 million less than they sought last spring.
