    Zedd Just Listed His Hollywood Hills Home for $5.5 Million

    Now that he’s had ample time to settle into his lavish Nordic-inspired mansion in Los Angeles that he bought almost two years ago for $18.4 million, Anton Zaslavski—better known to millions of music fans as Zedd—has decided to pare down his property portfolio. He’s hoisting his spare Hollywood Hills pad onto the market at a speck under $5.5 million, with David Kramer and Andrew Buss of Compass sharing the listing.

    The Russian-German DJ and record producer acquired the two-story, gated home in the posh Outpost Estates enclave in 2014 for around $4 million after the success of his breakthrough album, Clarity. He then added his own custom touches and upgrades to the 1950s structure, which offers four bedrooms and six baths in roughly 3,400 square feet adorned with walls of glass offering seamless indoor-outdoor environs. Glitzy amenities include a glass-encased wine display and a recording studio.

    Among the other highlights is an open-concept great room holding a combined living and dining area, plus a small yet sleek kitchen outfitted with an eat-in island, top-tier stainless appliances, and a pass-through window that connects to a poolside bar. An upstairs primary suite comes with a fireplace, a private balcony overlooking scenic city and canyon views, and a bath equipped with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a large marble-clad rainfall shower.

    Three additional bedrooms filtered throughout the house each have their own bath and outdoor space, while the lushly landscaped grounds span over a third of an acre and host a heated saltwater pool and a spillover spa surrounded by a wraparound sundeck, along with a pair of fire pits. There’s also a four-car garage.

    Before he acquired his new home known as Odin in late 2023, Zedd offloaded another contemporary Encino residence he bought from former A-list couple Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner in 2021 for $15.2 million to All About That Bass singer Meghan Trainor for just over $17.1 million. Before that, he transferred a place in the mountains high above Beverly Hills that he had owned since 2018 to Black-ish creator Kenya Barris for $18.4 million.

    One of the richest DJs in the world with an estimated net worth of $60 million, the Grammy-winning entertainer is known for his collaborations with the likes of Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Alessia Cara, Shawn Mendes, Disclosure, and Martin Garrix. The 36-year-old also keeps up a rigorous touring schedule, currently performing a Las Vegas residency in partnership with the Tao Group.

    This $20 Million Midcentury Beverly Hills Estate Hosted Reagan, Sinatra, and More

    Before his death in 2005 at age 92, Armand “Ardie” Deutsch led a life of wealth and privilege as a Hollywood movie producer and the grandson of Chicago philanthropist and Sears, Roebuck & Company CEO Julius Rosenwald.

    The notably “friendly and unobtrusive fellow” also amassed a lengthy roster of high-profile connections, many of whom often visited him and his wife, Harriet, at this striking midcentury-modern home in the exclusive Gateway enclave of Beverly Hills. Think President Ronald Reagan and First Lady Nancy Reagan, Walter and Lenore Annenberg, Frank Sinatra, Jimmy Stewart, and William Goetz, just to name a few. In fact, the attic is even rumored to still hold Secret Service tape from one of Reagan’s inauguration celebrations held here.

    The spacious great room has a sitting area, a bar room, and sliding glass walls opening to the backyard.

    Last sold to doctor and biomedical researcher David Agus in 2006 for around $3 million and subsequently renovated at his hands to the tune of around $4 million, the storied digs have now returned to the market for a dash under $20 million. Farrah Brittany and Mauricio Umansky of The Agency hold the listing.

    Originally designed and built for the Deutsches in 1959 by architect George MacLean and actor-turned-decorator William “Billy” Haines, the gated residence sits amid a hillside parcel spanning over one-and-a-half acres, in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains. Half a dozen bedrooms and 10 baths are spread across roughly 7,500 square feet, with four separate structures encompassing a gatehouse, staff accommodations, and a William R. Stephenson-designed guest and screening room building known as the Whim House that was tacked on in the early 1970s.

    A crimson-hued room in the Whim House addition features a screen that drops from the ceiling.

Other highlights include a formal dining room topped with an ornate metal light fixture, an eat-in kitchen outfitted with a professional-grade Dynasty range, an office space, and a spacious primary suite flaunting a sitting area.

    Outdoors, the wooded backyard is spotlighted by a solar-heated pool, a fire pit conversation area, a treetop gazebo, and several spots ideal for alfresco lounging and entertaining. Per the listing, architecture plans by Lewis/Schoeplein and Olson Kundig also offer the potential for future enhancements, with a certificate of ineligibility valid through Aug. 14, 2026, granting the flexibility to renovate without any historic preservation constraints.

    Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli’s Former Seaside Rental in Cape Cod Lists for $6.8 Million

    A quintessential New England escape rented by the late and legendary actress and singer Judy Garland in the early 1960s while her daughter, Liza Minnelli, was performing and working at the Cape Cod Melody Tent has just returned to the market in the charming village of Hyannis Port, right across from the storied Kennedy Compound.

    Last sold in fall 1990 for $930,000, the coastal estate was initially put up for sale in January at $7.5 million for the first time in more than three decades. Subsequently reduced and then removed from the listings in mid-June, it’s now back with a slimmed-down $6.8 million ask. Paul Grover and and Matthew de Groot of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties hold the listing.

    Affectionately known by locals as the Judy Garland House and set amid a third of an acre, the roughly 5,000-square-foot cedar-shingled residence was originally built over a century ago in 1890.

From there, a living room sports a whitewashed beam ceiling, a fireplace with a stone surround, and a built-in window seat. Other highlights include a fireside sitting room, a formal dining room that opens to a deck, and an eat-in kitchen with all-white cabinetry, newer stainless appliances, a walk-in pantry, and access to an outdoor dining patio and shower.

    After six years of ownership, Emma Gwyther has decided to put her sprawling estate in California’s affluent Carmel Valley enclave up for sale. The luxury auto and lifestyle brand marketer—known for crafting global campaigns and experiential events for an A-list clientele that includes the likes of Ferrari, Rolls-Royce, Bugatti, Aston Martin, and Maserati—is looking to sell the stylish residence for a dash under $13 million.

She subsequently rebuilt the former 1970s home on the site, working in collaboration with DMC Builders and interior designer Sharon Cleland of J Banks Design Group to create the new modern retreat that’s now on the market. Tim Allen of Coldwell Banker Realty holds the listing.
