      French Montana’s Sprawling Los Angeles Mansion Hits the Market Nearly $23 Million

      by

      Moroccan-born rapper French Montana, born Karim Kharbouch, is saying goodbye to his Los Angeles home.

      The “Unforgettable” artist first purchased the home in late 2020 from basketball player Paul George, a forward on the Los Angeles Clippers, for $8.4 million, and is now spinning off the home for a whopping $22.75 million. After purchasing the home, he embarked on an extensive remodel with Iqosa Interior and Architecture Design to suit his vision for the property.

      The home is located in the exclusive guard-gated enclave called Ashley Ridge, part of the glitzy, celebrity-filled Hidden Hills community. It’s sited on a 1.5-acre parcel of land, and you’re welcomed in via a private circular driveway with lush, manicured landscaping and towering mature trees with leafy canopies. The residence spans 16,000 square feet and has seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms, ideal for those who love to entertain or those with a large family. 

      The custom-built estate features bespoke wooden ceilings and oak beams, limestone floors, grand skylights, custom lighting, carved wooden doors, and marble fireplaces. No detail or expense was spared when it came to materiality. There are also floor-to-ceiling windows and custom glass sliding doors that overlook the pastoral grounds and welcome in plenty of natural light. There’s a spacious chef’s kitchen, which feels bright and airy thanks to vaulted beamed ceilings and open skylights. The home has a minimalist, natural aesthetic with indoor greenery at every turn.

There are vaulted wooden ceilings, a two-sided fireplace, a lounge with a kitchenette, massive walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with a built-in sofa near the glass-enclosed shower and soaking tub.

      Mischa Barton’s Former Beverly Hills Estate Hits the Market for $10 Million

      by

      A new California listing just hit the market with ties to one of The O.C.’s star actresses.

      Set on over an acre of land, a Beverly Hills compound once owned by Mischa Barton can now be yours for $10 million. The six-bedroom, nine-bathroom Bowmont estate offers four beds in the main residence and one in each of the two guest houses. You’ll find most of the luxe amenities inside the 10,305-square-foot main residence that range from great rooms with soaring ceilings to a home theater to a backyard pool. Scenic views from the property also make you feel as though you’ve left the City of Angels behind and landed in Northern Italy.

      The living room with a fireplace, set next to an office area

      Upon your arrival at the estate, the main residence’s stony facade covered in cascading greenery welcomes you inside. A decorative iron door allows you to enter the interior, where you’ll spot exposed wood-beam ceilings and stone flooring—both of which are key design details you’ll notice are carried throughout the abode. The heart of the manse, on ground level, features a light-filled space surrounded by an iron-rail staircase and the nearby formal dining room. A spacious chef’s kitchen fitted with wooden cabinetry, a massive island with seating, and top-of-the-line appliances can also be found on the same floor, alongside a breakfast eating area.

      The formal living room features a decorative fireplace alongside an excess of windows and doors that lead out to the verdant grounds. An office space sits to the right of the living room space. One floor above lies the grand primary bedroom that also houses a fireplace, as well as a private balcony with scenic views of the grounds. The complimentary primary bathroom has two steam showers, a soaking tub, and four tall windows that let the light in. And to store your designer wardrobe, the space also includes two closets with excess space and views of L.A. Other luxe amenities you’ll find inside the home include a game room, a wine cellar, a home gym, and a theater room for entertaining.

      Inside the spacious primary bedroom

      Outdoors lies a backyard oasis beneath a covered loggia that is engulfed by lush greenery. Elsewhere on the grounds, you’ll find the lap pool set next to ample space for lounge seating—not to mention breathtaking views of the horizon and Italian cypress trees. A patio area, closer to the residence, also boast a spacious layout for outdoor dining and city views. When you’re ready to explore the grounds further, a stone pathway in the backyard leads you to additional views from the opulent estate.

      Aaron Kirman, Cindy Ambuehl, and Daniel Millstein of AKG | Christie’s International Real Estate hold the listing.

      Patrick Mahomes’s Ranch-Style Manse in Kansas City Just Hit the Market for $3 Million

      by

      Chiefs fans, don’t panic. Patrick Mahomes isn’t leaving Kansas City, he’s just parting ways with one of his Missouri properties. 

      The quarterback recently put a ranch-style retreat on the market for just shy of $3 million, Dirt reported. Back in 2019, Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, shelled out a cool $1.9 million for the three-bed, five-bath pad and have since given the digs a whopping $400,000 makeover. Dating back to the ‘50s, the house sits on over an acre in the city’s swanky Country Club District and measures 4,800 square feet. Of course, you don’t have to be a sports enthusiast to buy this place but assuming you fit the bill, there’s a putting green in the backyard to practice your golf game plus a heated swimming pool. 

      Inside, the midcentury spread has been redone from top-to-bottom. Think contemporary hardwood floors, built-ins galore, and tons of windows throughout. A few of the highlights include an updated sunroom that feels super bright and airy, along with an open-concept living and dining area, and a family room complete with a stone fireplace and a wet bar. Nearby, the chef’s kitchen is just as impressive, equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and an eat-in island.  

      If you’re keen on entertaining, the finished basement offers up a host of amenities. Downstairs, you’ll find a screening room, a wine cellar, a lounge, and yet another bar. If you’re a self-proclaimed sneakerhead like the two-time Super Bowl champion, you’ll appreciate that the primary suite comes with not one but two walk-in closets. It helps that the bedrooms also have a massive soaking tub and shower. 

      Even though Mahomes has officially listed his primary residence, he still counts a two-bedroom Kansas City condo and a Texas mega-manse as part of his real-estate portfolio. The NFL MVP also reportedly snagged an eight-acre parcel in Loch Lloyd and has plans to erect a custom estate and a half- field where he can hone his skills in the off-season. 

      Cami Jones and Paige Buechele of ReeceNichols Real Estate hold the listing.  More
