You'll find this jaw-dropping LA home in a neighbourhood beloved by celebrities


While Bel Air and Beverly Hills contain plenty of celebrity homes, you’ll find just as many big names in the ultra-discreet LA neighbourhood of Encino – and a spectacular mansion there has just hit the market.

When it comes to luxury LA real estate, it’s no surprise that celebrities choose exclusive gated communities or hilltop retreats – and this dazzling home is tucked away within a private estate in the coveted neighbourhood of Encino, just a short stroll from Ventura Boulevard. (If you’re wondering which celebrities favour this particular area, the list is a long one – but Leighton Meester, Lisa Kudrow and Samuel L. Jackson are some of the most notable residents).

The property might boast more than 10,000 square feet of gorgeous interiors, but the garden is the real showstopper – just take a look at the spa and pool (complete with its own cabana); the firepit and outdoor kitchen; and the sprawling basketball court.

Back inside, you’ll find a formal living/dining room featuring a huge fireplace, a built-in bar, and sliding glass doors leading out to even more outdoor space (a courtyard that’s perfect for al fresco dining). There’s also a sparkling chef’s kitchen with two islands, plus a separate prep kitchen with a huge walk-in pantry.

Alongside even more incredible amenities (a gym, wood-panelled office, and a private cinema, to be exact), you’ll spot four guest bedrooms suites. Meanwhile, the breathtaking principal suite contains a huge walk-in wardrobe and a lavish bathroom.

Sound impressive? This is all topped off with two detached garages and (naturally) a cutting-edge security system. It wouldn’t be LA without a bit of high-tech glamour, after all…
