Two Totally Different But Equally Cool Celebrity Homes Just Hit The Market

Los Angeles is a city full of celebrities.  Since many are young and cool (suppose this is debatable depending on the celebrity) plus have a lot of money, you would expect that their homes would be as cool as they are.  Two new listings just hit the market recently that are definitely both "wow" homes.  Like the Owner's, the homes and their locations couldn't be more different, but they are both equally amazing in different ways.

Fixer Opportunity w/ CRAZY Views; Hollywood Hills

8320 GRAND VIEW DR, HOLLYWOOD HILLS

$683,400 3 Bed 3 Bath 3,375 Sq. Ft 5,053 Sq. Ft Lot

Amazing opportunity to own in the hills. Modern home with jetliner views from downtown to West LA and out toward the ocean. Set up to be a 3 bedroom / 3 bath, this home currently has a totally open floor plan with the first floor used as a garage that holds 7 and the upper floors are waiting for your interpretation. Balconies and a rooftop patio await your vision for the perfect home in the hills. Cash offers only! Listing & Write Up Courtesy of Joyce Essex -- Coldwell Banker BH North

As you can see by the pictures, this is basically raw space. It is clearly a fixer that needs work; however, this foreclosure is an opportunity. Homes on this street with these views can easily fetch well over $1M, so with some rehab work put into this one, an astute investor could potentially net hundreds of thousands of dollars. At over 3,000 sq. ft, the home is quite large, and with some vision could be dynamic.

My Style; Sweet Mid-Century Modern w/ Explosive Views

This Hollywood Hills property was recently re-listed on the market, but did not sell again for some reason. I wanted to post it, as it is the style that I probably enjoy the most. That mid-century 60's cool, but with modern finishes. This property has terrazzo flooring, an open floor plan with high ceilings, and great vintage detailing. Every part of the house leads out to explosive views of Los Angeles through it's walls of glass. The outside is an entertainer's dream and would have one feel as if they are living at the Mondrian Hotel's Skybar. Frankly I am surprised the owner has had such difficulty selling this special home.

Personal Walk Through of New Candlewood Way Listing

Here is a personal tour of my new listing for you guys. I know it is a little amateurish; however, I feel that it can be effective. Of course nobody would buy the property simply based on this video, but it does give you a good idea of what the property is and is not. I would think one would know from seeing this video if either they are interested in seeing the property in person or if there is no need to see it as it doesn't work for you. That is the sole point of the video walk through.
