The historic Hanover House mansion, once owned by actress Bette Davis, is now on the market for $40 million.

Located in the heart of Beverly Hills, the "made to measure" villa was recently transformed—from the inside out—by Visionnaire, a top-of-the-range interior design firm known for their distinctive and ultra-bespoke projects. “The house was completely taken to pieces and renovated,” says Visionnaire’s art director Eleonore Cavalli.

At nearly 10,000 square feet, the architecturally striking space boasts panoramic views and a modern design concept, complete with two pools, a movie theater, a full bar, and a full-sized tennis court. Modern sliding glass doors unite the home's indoor and outdoor spaces, with views to the pools and beyond. The newly-renovated interiors are classically modern, with an incredible attention to detail that can be found in every corner.

Westside Estate Agency holds the listing, which can be found here. Tour the glamorous mansion below.
