It’s undoubtedly one of our Eden by the Beach’s most expensive properties.

An 11-acre Hope Ranch oceanside estate, consisting of three parcels, is up for grabs for $88 million.

It was formerly owned by an old friend, Betty Stephens, whose husband founded Jonny Cat litter, and has a 7,265 square foot main house built in 1961.

Betty, known for extravagant birthday bashes, both at the house and the nearby La Cumbre Country Cub, died in 2018 age 86. She also hosted innumerable bold faced names including Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, Gov. Jerry Brown and Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

The estate is being sold by her daughter Joi Stephens, and her husband Fred Kaminski.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the real estate details gush “…A vast canvas for the creation of an unparalleled estate allowing for a 20,000 square foot main house and two 7,500 square feet guest houses.”
