    A Hidden Hills Mansion With Ties to Kanye West Lists for $17 Million

    Here’s a little Hidden Hills real estate trivia: Kanye West briefly owned a modest, outdated home in the guard-gated enclave favored by celebs—it’s right across from the sprawling estate he once shared with ex-wife Kim Kardashian—but he never actually lived there. He acquired the property in 2021 for $4.5 million and sold it two years later for $4.25 million, a quarter-million-dollar loss for the controversial rapper, not counting holding expenses and real estate fees.

    The old house was quickly torn down to make way for something far more ambitious. Enter Three Planes, a stunning modern equestrian estate by visionary designer Jae Omar and developer H2 Development, now hitting the market for just under $17 million with Veronika Khomyn at The Agency. 

    The house measures a commodious 11,000 square feet, while the luxury mini-ranch sprawls out over an acre. A bold facade wrapped in Shou Sugi Ban charred wood siding, Santa Barbara stone cladding, and hand-applied plaster greets you as you approach the home. A slate and metal roof caps it off with a rustic-luxe modern ranch vibe that fits right in with the affluent suburban community’s equestrian heritage.

    Step inside, and Omar’s signature organic modernism is everywhere: rich woods, textured stone, and soft earth-toned plaster combine with soaring ceilings and exposed wooden beams. The light-colored wood floors and neutral furnishings create a calm, grounded feeling.

    The home’s layout strikes a perfect balance between grand and intimate. There are five bedrooms and six full bathrooms plus a powder room. The primary suite is truly a retreat, featuring a steam shower, sauna, and sculptural soaking tub designed for serious relaxation. Plus, it sports a private terrace and floor-to-ceiling fireplace. The four other secondary bedrooms on the upper floor each have en suite baths, offering privacy and comfort for family or guests.

    Wellness and entertainment get their own dedicated wing, complete with a fully equipped gym, a private spa, a plush media room, and a convenient wet bar. Collectors and connoisseurs will appreciate the temperature-controlled wine room.

    The kitchen is a showstopper—finished with top-tier materials and appliances. It connects seamlessly to a generous breakfast nook and walk-in pantry, while formal living and dining rooms flank the space. Outside, the narrative continues with a resort-style pool and spa, firepit, outdoor kitchen, and a yoga deck. And, true to Hidden Hills’ equestrian roots, a detached horse stable stands ready to support an active lifestyle.

    Omar and H2 are no strangers to celebrity-favored projects. Omar’s previous works—like ONIN, ODIN, and Valley Meadow—have attracted interest from stars like DJ Zedd, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner, Meghan Trainor, and even Cardi B and Offset. Meanwhile, Kardashian still lives in the Hidden Hills home that she and West originally purchased as a couple in 2014 for $20 million and then had transformed into a minimalist’s dream by Belgian designer Axel Vervoordt. During their divorce, the reality star bought the house from the rapper for $23 million, and it has recently undergone an extensive renovation and expansion.

    Inside Kylie Jenner’s $80 Million Property Portfolio

    Hidden Hills, a gated suburb about 30 miles west of downtown L.A., is one of the most celebrity-favored enclaves in all of Southern California. Madonna has lived there, so have Jennifer Lopez and Drake, along with a slew of sports stars. Prominent among the residents is the Kardashian-Jenner clan, with Kris, Kim, Khloe, and Kylie all maintaining lavish spreads there.

    Jenner purchased her fourth property in Hidden Hills while still a teenager, in September 2016, for the very grown-up sum of $12.05 million. Spanning 13,200 square feet and set on 1.4 acres, the eight-bedroom, 11-bathroom Cape Cod–style home was built in 2015 and initially listed for nearly $13 million. Tucked away near the end of a cul-de-sac—and just a short distance from the Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park—the light-filled residence offers sweeping views of Los Angeles, a gourmet kitchen with two oversized islands, a great room with sliding glass walls, a custom theater, a game room with a wet bar, an office with a fireplace, a gym, and a massage room. A far cry from a typical 19-year-old’s bedroom, the primary suite includes dual walk-in closets, a stone-clad bathroom, and a large balcony with pastoral views. 

    Outside, there’s a covered patio, fire pit, pool, spa, and a six-car garage. A detached guesthouse adds to the appeal, complete with its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, sitting room, private entrance, and sunny courtyard. Jenner, who lives primarily in her lavish Holmby Hills home, is reportedly building another home in Hidden Hills.  More

    Kanye West’s Former Malibu Home Sells for More Than $30 Million After Less Than a Week

    Well, that was fast.

    The concrete home in Malibu that Kanye West infamously abandoned is being sold for more than $30 million less than a week after hitting the market, The Wall Street Journal reported. The Tadao Ando–designed property is being snapped up by Andrew Mazzella, a luxury-home developer who works primarily in Montana.

    “California and L.A., specifically Malibu, is the highest level there is and I’ve always wanted to get to the highest level,” Mazzella told the WSJ. “This is me kicking down the door.”

    Some 1,200 tons of concrete were used to construct the beachfront home.

    Roger Davies

    The 4,000-square-foot home has a rather interesting history, to say the least. West threw down a whopping $57.3 million for the estate back in 2021, then completely gutted the place. Before he could complete the renovation, he stepped away from the project, eventually listing the mansion in 2023 and selling it to the crowdfunding company Belwood Investments for just $21 million, a massive loss even for a billionaire.

    Steven “Bo” Belmont, the owner of Belwood, began an $8.5 million renovation of the abode in the hopes of returning it to its original condition, The Wall Street Journal noted. But he also changed his mind and spun it back on the market just last week, with a price tag of $39 million. While the exact amount that Mazzella is paying isn’t yet public, Belmont told the newspaper that the contract price is between $30 million and $34 million, which Mazzella confirmed.

    The four-bedroom home measures in at 4,000 square feet.

    Roger Davies

    To fund the purchase, Mazella is raising money from third-party investors, the WSJ wrote. The developer is planning to move to Malibu for the rest of the year to see the renovations through, at which point he wants to once again place the home up for sale, this time for an eye-popping $55 million to $65 million. In the deal, Mazzella is being represented by Amanda Lynn at Nest Seekers International, while the Ando home was listed by Jason Oppenheim of the Oppenheim Group and Mauricio Umansky of the Agency.

    This brings the estate’s saga to an end—for now—but the home’s got a long way to go until it becomes an attractive prospect to someone who wants a move-in-ready property. When he was still the owner, West took out all the doors, windows, and interior finishes. In the past year, Belmont has made some improvements, including redoing the roof and installing new plumbing and electrical systems. Still, Mazzella has his work cut out for him.

    Kim Kardashian Puts Her Minimalist Calabasas Condo on the Market for $3.5 Million

    You can now keep up with Kardashians IRL.

    We all know the Kardashian-Jenner clan loves to buy real estate in wealthy California enclaves and now you have the chance to scoop up Kim’s Calabasas pied-à-terre for a cool $3.5 million. The beauty and shapewear mogul originally purchased the property in 2017 for $1.6 million while she was married to rapper and now estranged husband, Kanye West, reported Dirt. Two years later, the monochromatic, monastery-style flat appeared to be back on the market but was never sold. Now listed with Compass, let’s hope things go better the second time around.

    Kim Kardashian just listed her Calabasas condo for $3.5 million 

    MLS/Compass

    When it comes to interior design, the former couple is well known for their intensely minimal taste. This 2,260-square-foot condominium is no exception. A celebration of all things beige, Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen was brought on for the modern-looking interiors and also helped conceptualize the duo’s notorious Hidden Hills mansion. The condo—while similar in its aesthetic but much smaller in its scale—is shown with sparse furnishings and an abundance of pale, neutral-colored organic materials.

    The minimalist home was designed by Belgian architect Vincent Van Duysen 

    MLS/Compass

    Located within Calabasas’s Avanti complex, the unit itself comprises three bedrooms and four bathrooms. Throughout the home are an array of pared-back design details that speak to Van Duysen’s simplistic yet stylized approach. Think wide-plank European oak flooring, gray plaster walls and dark designer light fixtures. It also comes with a chef’s kitchen that’s been decked out with top-of-the-line appliances such as a Gaggenau oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosh dishwasher. Elsewhere, the master suite has a freestanding JEE-o soho bathtub, Toto toilet, MGS faucets and a custom designer vanity. Honestly, we wouldn’t expect anything less.
    If the brutalist abode looks familiar, that’s because it’s made several appearances on the original Keeping Up with the Kardashians series over the years. In addition, the space also served as an office for KKW Beauty and Skims. So all you WFH entrepreneurs will be in good company.
