You may recognize Cheryl Tiegs on the cover of three decades-old Sports Illustrated issues, and more recently and briefly, on "Celebrity Apprentice" as the first contestant to be eliminated. Now she's on another mission to sell her prestigious $12 million Balinese-inspired estate.

The 65-year-old former model, recently listed her single-family pad, located at 809 Nimes Place, Los Angeles, Calif., which includes 5 bedrooms and 4 1/2 baths.
Situated in Bel Air's Holmy Hills community, the 1.43-acre estate was Tiegs her home since May 1996 at an undisclosed price, according to property records retrieved by The Real Estalker.
The 1-story, 4,770-square-foot gated-home has an expansive driveway that leads you into a massive motor court. Designed by the renowned interior décor-master Martyn Lawrence Bullard the insides offers a panoramic view of the city right from the get go.
The home has an open floor plan beneath vaulted ceilings and main pavilion, according to listing agent Jo Bajian of the Beverly Hills Rodeo Realty. Redfin reported the home provides a chef's eat-in kitchen and wine cellar, as well. It also has a staff room, a separate guest house with its own bathroom and a snug master bedroom with a welcoming fireplace.
The master suite is also known as the retreat living space, because it also includes a sitting area and a spa-like bathroom that's embroidered with sea grass and bold woodwork.
You can expect nothing less than perfection from Bullard, starring in Bravo's "Million Dollar Decorator" and constantly appearing in Architectural Digest as one of the world's best interior designers. He took his inspiration of the Balinese resort into this estate and spoke it to life by including the outdoors where you can feel your way through the tropical scenery of palm trees.
The private landscaping also features a pool, pathways, fountains and a lofty view of the nearby cityscape.
