Jason Statham’s Hollywood Hills property sold for $2.7 million

by Simona Ganea, posted in Real Estate, on August 23rd, 2011

British actor Jason Statham doesn’t seem to like staying too much in one place. He was the owner of a two-bedroom condo in Broadway that he sold in 2009, choosing instead to buy a five-bedroom beach home in Malibu for $10.95 million. He also had a very nice home in Hollywood Hills that he picked up for $2.4 million in 2005, the same year “transporter 2” came out.

The house is a very beautiful mid-century modern structure located on a 35 acre plot. It was built in 1957 and it suffered some subtle changes since then. Now it has a very beautiful interior décor, a combination of classic and modern features. Overall, the house is elegant and modern, with sharp right angles and a lot of floor-to-ceiling glass panels that help create a continuous image and attempt to soften the discrepancies between indoor and outdoor spaces.

by Alina, posted in Real Estate, on August 22nd, 2011

Is there anyone who does not like penthouses or who has not imagined how it is to own one? I think the one in the picture is beyond imagination or exceeds expectations. Seeing this penthouse located in Soho, New York, on 420 West Broadway, you would not think it was sculpted from raw warehouse space because it looks too good to be true.

The entire credit rests with the designer, Nico Ransch of UK-based Studio Architeam. Probably the most successful result is the dramatic double height living room with the glass enclosed viewing garden open to the sky. The construction was built on three levels, with three private terraces, every place being landscaped.

by Simona Ganea, posted in Real Estate, on August 15th, 2011

Located along the Carmel South Coast and Big Sur, over 130 yards from HWYI, Rainbow Point is an incredible property, perfect for those who want privacy and luxury. It’s a 2 acre property, with 3.100 sq. ft. interior. It’s quite impressive, considering the fact that it’s a single family home. Usually single families just want privacy and they usually get that in a small house. But it doesn’t have to be like that when you can afford a spectacular house like this one.

Rainbow Point manages to combine privacy and intimacy with vast space. The result is an incredible mansion that basically allows you to do anything you want in there. It features 9 rooms, 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 1 half bath. There’s also a guest suite, a sun room with stone fireplaces, gourmet kitchen with granite stone countertops as well as 2 private beaches, a deck/patio and the gardens surrounding the place.
