In December of 2020, Emmy winning comedian and television host Trevor Noah purchased an expansive estate in Los Angeles’s Bel Air neighborhood for $27.5 million. The South African entertainer acquired the impressive abode from architect Mark Rios who initially designed the property for himself in 2014. The home had previously been listed on the market in 2018 asking as much as $36 million. In 2020, the asking price was reduced to $32.5 million then lowered once more to $29.5 million.

Now, “The Daily Show” host is bidding farewell to his newly purchased residence for $29.75 million only 10 months after purchased. Although it is currently unknown as to why Noah is so quickly selling the home, he has been linked to several other properties across the country. In 2019, he purchased a nearby mansion at $20.5 million before flipping it for $21.7 million last year. Noah has also owned a $10 million penthouse in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen since 2017 and is currently renting a second residence in Tribeca for a reported $52,000 a month.

Noah’s former Bel Air abode spans a whopping 11,375 square feet with six bedrooms, eight full baths, and three half-baths. The expansive space evokes a Japanese inspired aesthetic and has been described as a “tranquil haven.” The interior floor plan features the living area with floor-to-ceiling glass doors and chef’s kitchen with bar seating, formal dining room, and den. The library, in particular, was fashioned after a room in Kyoto with the addition of heavy and dark timbers. Across the home, primary decorative elements consist of dark wood accents, light-filled spaces, and sweeping city views.

Upstairs, the master suite presents dual baths and spacious walk-in closets. The second floor also offers four additional ensuite bedrooms. Outside, the exterior space features a rooftop terrace, swimming pool, kitchen, and fire pit. Other luxe amenities of the Bel Air mansion include a gym, spa, office, screening room, motor court, and separate guest apartment.

Jonah Wilson with Hilton & Hyland holds the listing for this property.

Beyoncé, singer songwriter and pop culture icon, has recently made news with her newest campaign in collaboration with Tiffany & Co. In the photoshoot, she became the fourth woman in the world to wear a 128.54-carat yellow gem. Since its release, the advertisement has become controversial due to the diamond’s colonial origins as well as the use of a never-before-seen Jean-Michel Basquiat “Equals Pi” print rendered in Tiffany Blue. Nonetheless, the project began with benevolent intentions as Tiffany promises to donate $2 million to scholarship and internship programs for historically black academic institutions.

While Beyoncé and Tiffany set out to highlight an extravagant $30 million diamond necklace, the mansion where the campaign was shot showcased its own luxurious nature. Located in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, the expansive mansion was designed by the award-winning architect, Zoltan Pali. The lavish home was completed in December of 2018 and listed at $56 million. In May of this year, the price was reduced to $42 million. Pali states, “Given its prominent positioning above a relatively developed neighborhood, the motivation behind the design of the home was to create a residence that could meld into its surroundings while maximizing views.”

The bedazzling Bel Air spread spans 18,850 square feet with the nine bedrooms and ten full baths. The three-story building is comprised of glass walls to give the illusion of an airy and floating atmosphere. Stepping inside, the sprawling mansion presents dual chef’s kitchens, living rooms, a 1,000-bottle wine room, a Dolby Atmos theater, and a wellness center. Decorative elements of the home consist of gold finishes, limestone from Portugal and Italy, and black and white marble imported Italy, Switzerland, Turkey, and China. Stepping outside, the exterior space offers a 6,000-square-foot space with shaded patios, lounging areas, fire pits, an LED-lit ozone pool, and a hot tub. Additionally, the 1.55-acre lot boasts a 30-car motor court, a four-bed guest house, and lush greenery.

The Weeknd

The contemporary singer can now call the posh residential enclave of Bel Air, Los Angeles home after purchasing his newfound mansion at a whopping $70 million price point. This lavish real estate deal is marked as one of the most expensive sales to take place this year in Los Angeles. The transaction comes mere months after The Weeknd sold his $19.3 million Hidden Hills home to the “Queen of Pop” Madonna.

Prior to The Weeknd’s recent purchase, his newly acquired Bel Air abode was owned by Dutch media mogul Reinout Oerlemans and his wife, competitive cyclist Danielle Oerleman. The couple originally purchased the lavish home in 2015 for a price of $21.4 million. They spent three years renovating the expansive property with the addition of ultramodern amenities and 13,000 square feet of space. Reportedly, the Oerlemans were not interested in selling their glamourous residence before receiving word of The Weeknd’s inquiry. The Williams team represented the sellers in this transaction while Angel Salvador of Beverly Hills Estates represented the buyer.

The luxurious Bel Air property spans 1.6 acres of picturesque land and features approximately 33,000 square feet of ling space. With the Oerlemans’ renovations, the residence has been upgraded from its initial early 2000s aesthetic to a more contemporary look. Distinctive decorative elements of the home consist of orange gloss paint on the living room walls, leather belts repurposed into drawer handles, and office walls lined with wooden sunburst panels.  Other luxe amenities include a gym, movie theater, music studio, sauna, hammam, and indoor pool. Stepping outside, the expansive exterior showcases a a sports court, an infinity pool with waterfall, and a dramatic split staircase leading from the upper patio to the lawn which overlooks the beautiful Bel Air Country Club.

Awkwafina

Born as Nora Lum in Queens, New York, she has come a far way from the small railroad apartment in Brooklyn following her catapult into the limelight. The actress, comedian, and internet personality was once “scared” to invest in a larger space, but eventually moved to West Hollywood in 2019 where she purchased a $2.27 million townhome. Nearly two years later, she is now bidding farewell to her former residence listing it on the market for a slightly heightened price of $2.4 million. The presumed reason as to why she is selling her former home is that she recently purchased a stylish Bel-Air mansion for $3.5 million.

Awkwafina’s former West Hollywood home is a contemporary townhome spanning 3,500 square feet. The residence includes three bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The loft-style living space offers three levels, a roof deck with spa, and dazzling views of the cityscape. The space opens to a living and dining area with a fireplace and glass doors leading to a balcony. The white, modern kitchen equipped with two-tone cabinets and stainless-steel appliances sits adjacent to the dining space with cathedral ceilings and a bright light fixture. Upstairs, the master suite features a spacious walk-in closet and luxurious bathroom with dual vanities and glassed-in shower. The modern space also offers two other ensuite bedrooms, large bonus room, kitchenette, and office with separate entrance. Other perks of the home consist of four balconies, a two-car garage, sound system with built-in speakers, and easy access to a plethora of restaurants and shops on the nearby Melrose Avenue.

Danny Brown with Compass holds the listing for this property.

Anthony Davis

In 2018, Anthony Davis purchased his Westlake Village home at just under $7.5 million, which he recently sold at loss. While Davis splurged $8 million on renovations to the Mediterranean style residence, the home ultimately sold for $6.6 million in January. However, with his most recent real estate purchase of a Bel Air estate appears to be a score. According to a trust associated with Davis, the off-market deal of his new property closed last month at a price of $32 million. Although a quiet transaction for a superstar player, the lavish state of his newfound home speaks for itself.

Previous owner, Ted Foxman purchased the Bel Air property in 2016 at a price of $16 million. Throughout his stay, he spent two years renovating it. Several significant transformations were made to the home as showcased in Elle Decor. The 16,700 square foot villa style estate spans 3.5 acres with eight bedrooms and eight full bathrooms. Beyond the gates of the Bel Air Crest community, the home opens to a great hall with an extravagant 35-foot glass dome ceiling. Further inside the property presents an entertainment style living room, formal dining room equipped for 20, and ultramodern eat-in kitchen with a butler’s pantry. The eight bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, and three powder rooms highlight picturesque views of the Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island. The estate is equipped with a plethora of entertainment options such as a home theater, game room, wet bar, Olympic sized pool, full sized basketball court, tennis court, and nearby golf course and canyons. Decorative highlights of the home include custom stone, marble, and walnut wood floors.

Located in a gated residence, the mansion sits privately in a secluded drive at the end of a cul-de-sac. Built in 1991 and designed by architect Richard Dodson, the 3,500 square foot space was inspired by Streamline Moderne décor.

The two-story property has an open-concept layout with numerous windows scattered throughout. The spacious living room has built-in floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a fireplace. Other living space amenities include a dining area and a chef’s kitchen equipped with Viking appliances.

The upstairs level holds an office or creative studio as well as the master suite. The master suite features dual closets, a fireplace, and a spa-inspired bathroom with an oval soaking tub and separate shower. It also features a private deck with a grassy seating area.

Other home amenities include a 2,500 bottle wine cellar, soundproof recording studio, and a gym. Outside has a putting area, heated pool and spa, and grassy lawn spaces perfect for relaxing. The property also has rooftop solar panels and a two-car garage.

The listing was held by Mick Partridge of the Partridge Estates at Hilton & Hyland.

Haute Residence: How did the real estate market look in the beginning of 2020?

Jeff Hyland: To start the year, we could have never guessed that 2020 would take us on such a roller coaster ride. With that being said, luxury real estate has remained strong and stable throughout a plethora of uncertainties. At the beginning of the year we all had high hopes and expectations for what the markets could prescribe, and to be frank, I could not be more confident in the security of real estate investing.

HR: What, if any, changes did the pandemic have on prices? On inventory?

JH: One large and looming question we all faced in March was if there would be any changes to our market. In these eight months we have all been fighting the pandemic, we haven’t seen any dramatic changes to prices or available inventory. In fact, we are seeing record sale figures while inventory continues to remain low. If there has been any change, we are seeing both buyers and sellers become more motivated to close on the right offers.

HR: As 2020 is coming to an end, what it your outlook into 2021?

JH: 2020, although turbulent, experienced a great number of triumphs in the real estate market. Hilton & Hyland was not only able to meet the expectations we set for ourselves to start the year, we continue to exceed them with flying colors. If our collective strength and perseverance successfully navigated us through choppy waters thus far, 2021 should be a stroll in the park. With big projects in the works and a roster of the best agents in Southern California, Hilton & Hyland is poised for an immense year.

Haute Residence: What features are homebuyers paying extra attention to when searching for their next home?

Jeff Hyland: As most of our lives have shifted from spending hours at work to being centralized around the home, I’ve seen a variety of household features be the focal point of so many homebuying decisions. Whether purchasing a new estate or renovating a current property, focusing on features where we spend a majority of our time is a significant factor. Since the typical 40-hour workweek has only changed the locations of our offices and lessened the drive, people are spotlighting the home office as a key feature for their next estate.

Photo Credit: Hilton & Hyland

HR: How has your market been doing so far this year compared to this time last year?

JH: In August alone Hilton & Hyland more than doubled our sales in comparison to what we did for the same month in 2019. This year we shattered the $204M of total sales in last year’s August by selling $419M in luxury real estate. We continue to meet and exceed the expectations we set for ourselves at the beginning of the year. None of this success could have been possible without our superlative roster of the most talented agents in Los Angeles, along with an inventory of some of the finest properties in the city and beyond.

HR: Are new buyers coming into your market?

JH: Los Angeles real estate has continued to be an attractive and sound investment with the last few months being no different. Whether buyers are coming from outside of the state or internationally, Los Angeles has encountered an influx of new purchasers entering the market. If buyers are interested in income properties, personal residences or their next dream vacation home, LA real estate has remained a sound and reassuring investment amongst economic instability. Not only are we experiencing buyers from other locations, we have also seen an increase in first-time homebuyers as well as native Angelino’s coming back to their old stomping grounds.

The post A Traditional Bel Air Home By Myra Nourmand appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

Bel-Air is perhaps the destination for billionaires to invest in a brand-new private enclave. Located between Brentwood and Beverly Hills Post Office, Bel-Air meanders through the lower foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains, dotting the hills with unmatched-in-luxury, multi-million-dollar estates.

This neighborhood is almost entirely residential, so you won’t feel like you’re living in a city, despite the proximity to Los Angeles and Hollywood. In fact, the neighborhood is penned in by a large gate, with only two elegant stone entryways. All this contributes to the feeling of being inside a beautiful hideaway.

The residential crowd is made up of… some of the most opulent homes you’ve ever seen. While there are a fair number of smaller mansions, you won’t be hard-pressed to find estates with multiple wings and stories and expansive views. Most homes are hidden from the street with high walls, fences, or shrubbery.

The lifestyle offered is… private and extravagant. Residents in Bel Air don’t spare any luxury in their homes and lifestyle—and why should they?

Photo Credit: James Harris

The most popular building type is… modern mansions with every comfort you could imagine and extensive security. The average home price is… $3.5 million. But there will also be several homes priced above $20 million (and in 2017, Bel Air boasted the first home listed for $250 million!).

The area’s greatest highlight is… the seclusion and exclusivity of living within one of the world’s most prominent gated communities.

The area’s best driving distance getaway is… the city of Los Angeles! From your private estate in Bel Air, you can get to any place in the city (from artful and historic downtown to the laidback beaches of Santa Monica) in under an hour.

The best spot to dine fancy is… Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel-Air. Because the neighborhood is so residential, you’ll find a few stand-alone restaurants. However, the Hotel Bel-Air offers some of the finest meals in the city, designed by the renowned chef, Wolfgang Puck.

The best spot to find entertainment is… Stone Canyon Reservoir. This calming, natural spot offers hiking trails and beautiful overlooks.

The best spot to go shopping is… the Glen Centre. This small shopping mall is located nearby Bel Air and features charming, upscale local shops and restaurants.

Modern Traditional in Stone Canyon reveals a fine new construction estate setting for living the best of the Bel Air experience. Italian stone exterior cloaks traditional warm interiors overlooking large green lawn, Guest House and quiet forest of nature. Discreet gated motor-court leads to a European inspired hybrid architectural residence merging modern themes with traditional balance and flourish. 6 bedroom suites, 8 baths, true swimmer's Pool-featuring an elevated Spa, are amenities that begin to define the merits of this new estate. Sunny open sky bathes the backyard areas while an adventure trail leads the nature lover into the canopy of trees that embrace the property. Wide veranda ironwood deck terraces expand most interior rooms as comfortable sitting areas midway between the inside and outside domains. Rarely are comfort and luxury so beautifully balanced.

Renowned real estate broker, whose name is synonymous with uber-luxurious estates around the world, Joyce Rey showcases two of the most resplendent, jaw-dropping properties currently on the market in Bel Air.

1244 Moraga Drive

The former property of oil tycoon and philanthropist, Howard B. Keck, 1244 Moraga Drive is a classic Italian villa of nearly 15 square feet on an expansive lot behind the gates of the upscale Moraga Estates enclave in Bel Air.

“Moraga Drive has a remarkable amount of flat land,” said Rey. “It has a huge garden which is so rare because it's nearly 4 acres and it's in a 24-hour guard-gated community, which gives it a special security and privacy. The scale of the design and rooms is outstanding.”

The four-bedroom, nine-bathroom main residence features quintessential Mediterranean details such as curved archways and windows as well as soaring ceilings that create an elegant ambience awash in natural light. Some of the most distinct spaces include a stately office/library, a walk-in bar and a sophisticated master suite.

Outdoors, a motor court accommodates 10 vehicles, while the lush gardens, punctuated by a swimming pool and a lounge area, afford a lovely entertainment setting. A one-bedroom, two-bathroom guest house complete the exceptional offering, listed for $33,750,000 .

277 St. Pierre Road

277 St. Pierre is anything but an ordinary – albeit high-end – estate. It is an exceptional compound that pairs California’s leisure with New York’s sophistication in its contemporary interior design by Gavin Brodin. Resting on a flat one-acre parcel behind private gates, the residence exudes opulence that rivals that of world-class resorts.

“It's the approximately 36,000 square footage, which is unusual and the entertaining areas, which are extensive,” that underscore the lavishness of 277 St. Pierre, which is offered at $49,900,000, said Rey.

The spa and pool, the sauna and steam room, and the massage room foster a relaxed, vacation-worthy atmosphere, while the bowling alley, full bar, racquetball court, private cinema and several game rooms add to the seemingly endless entertainment possibilities here.
