Offers gonna come his way

The Stanley House, the first single-family home project by

Lenny Kravitz and his interior design firm, has hit the market at $38 million.

Rising from a hilltop in Hollywood Hills West, the modern mansion is set on about a third of an acre above the Sunset Strip with city and ocean views.

An artistic staircase connects the three levels of living space, which extend outdoors through terraces and patio space. The 10,700-square-foot house features marble walls, expanses of glass and a lower-level nightclub. Gallery walls display pieces by street and studio artist Retna.

There are five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, including a multi-room master suite.

A 12,000-pound granite boulder was used to create the outdoor fire feature.

The circular, 70-foot-wide swimming pool gives the illusion of floating on air. A hydraulic lift opens and closes the “invisible” garage door.

Kravitz served as creative director for the speculativ­e developmen­t, introducin­g exotic wood and stone details while curating the wares and custom furniture. The home is the last work of the late Austin Kelly, who co-founded Xten Architectu­re.

Hilton & Hyland agent Branden Williams, who is listed as a manager of the entity that owns the property, sees the project as a marriage of old- and new-school style.

“We searched high and low for interior designers that could give this property such rich soul, and

that’s what Lenny and his team created,” Williams said. “When you’re here, you’re not sure what era you’re in. We wanted to keep people guessing.”

Williams shares the listing with his wife, Rayni.
