BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., June 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Julie Candice, David Kramer, and Charlotte Pruitt of Hilton & Hyland have listed a gorgeous home at 8570 Cole Crest Drive that aims to be the 'safest home in America.' The home – the true definition of a modern masterpiece - has been built to withstand nearly every type of disaster scenario imaginable, from storms to high-magnitude earthquakes to wildfires to pandemic. A wine cellar in the basement doubles as an underground bunker. If all else fails, a rooftop helipad allows for a last-ditch emergency exit.

The security features are both sleek and understated, in that they do not detract from the stylistic home that features top-of-the-world views. A true modern Mediterranean with commanding 360-degree panoramic views from the ocean to downtown, and featured on major shows including "Nightline" and "Oprah," the home includes a sumptuous kitchen with large center island, double ovens, and a commercial pizza oven. It also features a lavish spa-like bathroom with a tub, shower and fireplace, along with built-in seating. The home includes an elegant dressing room with over-sized closet and two additional en suite bedrooms, plus a 2 bedroom attached guest house and home theater.
Al and Lana Corbi, the owners of the Hollywood Hills house and founders of a company called Strategically Armored and Fortified Environments, SAFE, say that they can outfit homes with underground bunkers up to 30 stories below ground. The Corbi's built their own Los Angeles home both for their family and to show potential clients the latest in high-tech, high-end disaster protection and security. Constructed atop 60 steel-caged concrete caissons, each 30 feet deep and 30 inches in diameter, their house is designed to survive a high-magnitude earthquake.
"We are pleased to list a home that is equal parts incomparably safe and invitingly warm and meticulously designed," said the listing agents. The home is pristinely understated and gated to dissuade intruders while featuring massive windows to accentuate the 360 degree views," said the listing agents.
Facial recognition and biometric entry systems compliment the extensive surveillance offered throughout the home. Mounted iPads further offer full control of both the security and entertainment features. The home also features a 2,000-square-foot, SAFE Core with ballistic resistant doors, which encompass the master bedroom and children's rooms. It was designed to isolate homeowners in a comfortable and safe environment in the event of any outside threat; a common feature in their clients' homes.
The home is currently on the market for $5,750,000.
