Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1959, this property has undergone an extensive, high-end renovation, likely within the last 5 years. The gourmet kitchen features top-tier stainless steel appliances, a massive center island, and custom cabinetry, all in a modern, pristine condition. Bathrooms, though not explicitly detailed in images, are implied to be equally luxurious given the overall property standard. Flooring is consistently modern hardwood, light fixtures are contemporary (recessed and stylish chandeliers), and the overall design is sleek and current. The 'automated glass walls' and 'modern design' mentioned in the description, coupled with the immaculate condition seen in the images, indicate a property that meets current luxury standards with virtually new components and no deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Panoramic Views: The estate offers sweeping, 280-degree panoramic views from the Getty Center to Downtown Los Angeles, including city lights, coastline, and ocean, significantly enhancing its appeal and value.
Luxury Amenities & Design: Features include expansive 28-foot automated glass walls, a private backyard oasis with a pool, spa, and deck, a gourmet kitchen with top-tier appliances, and dedicated spaces for an art gallery, gymnasium, and entertainment room.
Spacious & Flexible Layout: With 8,500 square feet, six bedrooms, and eight bathrooms, including dual primary suites on both levels, the property offers extensive living space and versatile accommodation options.
Prestigious Location: Situated in an elevated position in Brentwood, Los Angeles, the property benefits from a highly desirable and affluent neighborhood known for its exclusivity and serene environment.
Modern & Timeless Aesthetic: The residence boasts a harmonious blend of modern design and perennial style, ensuring a sophisticated and enduring appeal.
Cons
Original Construction Age: Built in 1959, while extensively updated, the underlying structure's age may imply potential for unforeseen issues with original systems not explicitly mentioned as fully replaced, or a perception of an older home.
High Ongoing Maintenance Costs: The sheer size (8,500 sqft), extensive luxury features (pool, spa, automated glass walls), and large lot will inherently incur significant ongoing maintenance, utility, and specialized service costs.
Lack of Specific HVAC Details: The description does not explicitly mention the presence or specifics of a modern cooling system (HVAC), which could be a consideration for comfort in Los Angeles' climate, especially for a property of this vintage.
