LOS ANGELES _ Decorated alpine skier Lindsey Vonn, who has her sights on more Olympic gold at the upcoming Winter Games, has put her home in L.A. on the market for $3.795 million.
The sexy two-story is in Beverly Grove, a desirable neighborhood that abuts Beverly Hills and West Hollywood, and was completed last year. Vonn paid $3.55 million for it.
A dramatic glass-enclosed entry and floating staircase set the tone for the contemporary-style home. The main floor is devoted to open-plan space and includes a living room with a wall fireplace, a custom Miton kitchen and a dining area. Contemporary barn doors slide to reveal an office/den.
Custom blown-glass light fixtures and Porcelanosa artistic tile create visual interest throughout the 4,037 square feet of interiors. A cascading waterfall feature sits just outside the glass front door.
Pocketing walls of glass open to the backyard, where decking surrounds a zero-edge swimming pool. A front-facing terrace creates an additional 400 square feet of living space and holds a fire pit. The master suite, one of four bedrooms and 3.75 bathrooms, has a private balcony.
Vonn, 32, was the overall World Cup champion from 2008 to 2010 as well as in 2012. She has won two Winter Olympics medals, including a gold for downhill in 2010.
