      Jerry Bruckheimer’s Former Home in the Hollywood Hills Can Now Be Yours for $10 Million

      by

      A Los Angeles residence that was once home to Jerry Bruckheimer has popped up for sale in the Hollywood Hills. Dubbed the Ajioka House after its original owner, Dr. Richard Ajioka, the 1960s digs designed by noted architects Conrad Buff and Donald Hensman are now on the market for a dash under $10 million. Weston Littlefield and Alex Howe of the Aaron Kirman Group at Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California share the listing.

      Occupied by the mega-producer of blockbuster hits from Top Gun to the Pirates of the Caribbean until the mid-1980s, when he sold it for $510,000, the chalet-like spread went on to transfer in 2008 for $2.5 million to menswear designer and tech entrepreneur Derek Mattison. He undertook a major restoration and remodel in collaboration with the L.A.–based design studio Commune that later garnered a Cooper Hewitt National Design Award. It was last sold to Nichols Canyon LLC in 2020 for $6.75 million.

      Hidden behind a high wall and secured gates in the Nichols Canyon area, the hillside property includes a main home and several detached structures spread across nearly an acre of land laced with pepper trees, garden pathways, and a couple of custom ceramic water installations by artist Stan Bitters. A combined total of four bedrooms and five baths are spread across 4,200 square feet, all of it dressed inside and out with rustic reclaimed oak.

      Spanning two stories, the primary dwelling is introduced via a soaring entry foyer displaying large windows and a massive matchstick chandelier. Exposed-beam ceilings, polished concrete floors, and vast expanses of glass run throughout the post-and-beam pad, which is highlighted by a double-height living room anchored by an eye-catching brick and mirror-paneled fireplace.

       The backyard holds a pool, bar and barbecue setup, and fire pit conversation area.

      A separate den/media room is topped with a meditation deck, while a Boffi kitchen is outfitted with a 24-foot stainless and walnut island, Miele appliances, and access to a terrace. A floating staircase leads to an upstairs primary suite, which sports a sky-lit nook with integrated seating, a walk-in closet, and a snazzily tiled bath with dual vanities, a deep soaking tub, and a glass-encased shower.

      Elsewhere is a one-bedroom, one-bath guest suite, plus a design studio/office and a wellness room with a sauna and Himalayan salt wall. Topping it all off are the lushly landscaped grounds, which are showcased by a pool and a spillover spa alongside a sundeck, a barbecue and bar setup, and a fire pit conversation area. A garage and an accompanying motor court can also accommodate up to eight vehicles.

      Inside Bad Bunny’s Budding $17 Million Property Portfolio

      by

      Few artists have reshaped the sound and style of a generation quite like Bad Bunny. The Puerto Rican hitmaker—born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio—has transformed Latin music into a global force, blending reggaetón, trap, and pop with an effortless cool that has made him one of the defining figures of modern culture. Along the way, he’s earned three Grammys, 11 Latin Grammys, and a reputation as a creative polymath who moves just as confidently between music, film, fashion, and business.

      His live performances have become cultural phenomena in their own right. In 2022, his twin tours—El Último Tour del Mundo and the World’s Hottest Tour—collectively pulled in an unprecedented $435 million, making him the year’s highest-grossing touring artist worldwide. His Most Wanted Tour in 2024 added another $211 million, while this year’s 30-day No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí residency at San Juan’s Coliseo de Puerto Rico generated nearly $250 million for the island. That run will be followed by his upcoming Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, which kicks off on November 21 in the Dominican Republic.

      Meanwhile, Bad Bunny’s star has expanded well beyond the stage. His acting roles in Bullet Train, Happy Gilmore 2, and SNL showcased a cinematic charisma that’s fueling his crossover into Hollywood, while his influence in fashion has made him a fixture at the Met Gala and in front rows from Paris to Milan. A global ambassador for Gucci and the face of campaigns for Jacquemus, Adidas, and Calvin Klein, he’s become a sartorial force known for merging traditional Puerto Rican flair with boundary-pushing high fashion. Even his collaborations—like his limited-edition Crocs collection—have sold out within minutes, a testament to his cultural sway.

      Offstage, the millionaire rapper indulges in equally enviable passions. A devoted car enthusiast, his garage reportedly includes a Bugatti Chiron, Rolls-Royce Dawn, and Mercedes G63 AMG, among other head-turning machines. His real estate holdings are similarly impressive. He owns two homes in Los Angeles—including one that used to belong to Ariana Grande—and has previously rented a glass-wrapped penthouse in Manhattan for $150,000 a month. Though unconfirmed, he’s also rumored to own property in his native Puerto Rico.

      As he prepares to headline the 2026 Apple Music Super Bowl LX halftime show in Santa Clara, Bad Bunny stands not just as the world’s biggest Latin artist but as a cultural powerhouse redefining what it means to live like a global icon.

      Ellen Barkin’s Former N.Y.C. Townhouse Just Hit the Market for $23 Million

      by

      Back in 2006, shortly after her divorce from billionaire financier Ronald O. Perelman, Ellen Barkin shelled out $7.5 million for an 1840s Greek Revival townhouse in Manhattan‘s Greenwich Village neighborhood that came with a 20-foot parlor extension designed by the late Louvre Pyramid architect I.M. Pei.

      Now the stylishly reimagined digs have popped up for sale again, this time with an elevated $23 million price tag. Christian Rogers, Matthew Wojnarowicz, and Eileen McGill of Howard Hanna Elegran hold the listing.

      One of the home’s two living rooms is warmed by a decorative fluted fireplace.

      Famously occupied by the Emmy- and Tony-winning actress for almost two decades until 2023, the property was last sold to husband-and-wife development and design team Sven and Sara Simon of dasCasa in early 2023 for $11 million. Since extensively remodeled by the couple, the red brick structure measures 21 feet wide and offers four bedrooms and five baths in 4,500 square feet of colorfully hued and art-filled living space.

      The first floor is highlighted by a hallway that flows past a bedroom and bath on its way to a wood-beamed kitchen outfitted with dark green cabinetry, an eat-in island, top-tier Bertazzoni and Sub-Zero appliances, a butler’s pantry, and a breakfast nook. A rear media room painted a rosy shade spills out to a patio with an outdoor kitchen and a garden beyond.

      Outdoor spaces include three terraces, a roof deck, and a patio that extends to a lush garden.

      Holding court on the second floor are two fireside living rooms, plus a wood-paneled dining room with a wet bar and French doors leading out to a black-and-white-tiled terrace with stairs to the garden below. Occupying the entire third level is a sprawling primary retreat sporting a fireplace, a private balcony, an expansive dressing room, and a marble-clad bath spotlighted by a freestanding soaking tub. Above that are two more bedrooms with their own walk-in closets and baths, plus another bedroom that currently serves as an office.

      Rounding it all off is a sky-lit staircase that ascends to a rooftop deck equipped with a bar. There’s also a partially finished basement, which includes a laundry room, a game/wellness room, and storage space. Marketing materials rightly describe the pad as a “world-class experience and asset, where design-forward living meets effortless comfort.”

      Inside a $3.8 Million Landmark Palm Springs Home That Inspired a Fragrance

      by

      A rare and alluring midcentury-modern abode designed by late architect Donald Wexler in the 1950s as his personal home has just popped up for sale at $3.8 million in the desirable Movie Colony East neighborhood of Palm Springs.

      Completed over seven decades ago, and aptly known as the Donald and Marilynn Wexler Residence, the post-and-beam spread today has the added cachet of having inspired the citrusy, floral, and woody 1272 fragrance created by its owner, Perfumehead founder and CEO Daniel Patrick Giles, who told Robb Report earlier this year that he wanted to translate the spirit of his beloved house into scent.

      The living room is wrapped in vertical fir siding and walls of glass.

      Giles liked the property so much he purchased it twice, first in 2007 for $915,000. The fashion and beauty industry veteran then undertook a two-year restoration and remodel in collaboration with Wexler and Lance O’Donnell of o2Architecture, with their efforts garnering them the Palm Springs Modern Committee Residential Restoration of the Year Award in 2009. He wound up selling the home to Broadway actor and director Joe Mantello in 2015 for $1.6 million, before buying it back in 2023 at nearly $2.3 million.

      Sited on a third of an acre near Ruth Hardy Park, the gated and hedged digs offer three bedrooms and two baths in roughly 2,400 square feet of neutrally hued, Darren Brown-designed living space adorned with terrazzo floors throughout. Also incorporated within the white wood-framed and flat-roof structure are many of Wexler’s original elements, including spun-metal can lights, built-in shelving, floor-to-ceiling walls of glass shaded by deep overhangs, and an open, L-shaped floor plan.

      The primary bedroom’s en suite bath has a soaking tub set against an exotic Zebra marble accent wall.

      Standing out is a spacious living room wrapped in vertical fir siding, plus a dining area that connects to a minimalist kitchen upgraded with newer stainless steel appliances. A primary suite sports a freestanding soaking tub set against a wavy Zebra marble accent wall, while William Kopelk-landscaped grounds modeled after a Japanese rock garden host a black-bottom pool and a spa nestled among granite boulders, native plantings, and mature olive and pine palm trees.

      The property, which is listed by Rick Grahn and Brian Linder with The Value of Architecture at Compass, has been named to the National Register of Historic Places and designated as a Palm Springs Class 1 Historic Resource. It’s also covered by the Mills Act, meaning significant property tax savings are offered in exchange for preserving its historic appearance.

      Zedd Just Listed His Hollywood Hills Home for $5.5 Million

      by

      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.

      Accordion-style glass doors on both sides of the great room open to the outdoors.

      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.

      A crimson-hued recording studio features a workstation and high-end audio gear.

      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

      by

      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.

      Upon entering the main home, a travertine and wood great room is bookended by a den and a bar room, both featuring decorative fireplaces and floor-to-ceiling walls of glass spilling outside. 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.
