LA Times – Top Sales
$11.25 million — Brentwood
A gated estate in the 400 block of North Carmelina Avenue sold for $1.225 million less than the asking price of $12.475 million. The buyers were Tom Davidov, managing director at the investment bank Credit Suisse, and his wife, fashion editor and celebrity makeup artist Mary Alice Davidov.
Sitting on more than half an acre of lush grounds, the Spanish-style home is entered through a courtyard with a koi pond and an outdoor fireplace.
The 9,600 square feet of interior space has a refined look, with white-painted walls, hardwood floors and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. Among living spaces is an eat-in kitchen, a sunroom and a formal dining room that overlooks the courtyard.
Including a guesthouse and a detached studio, there are nine bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms. The master suite takes in a view of the Getty Center.
Richard Ehrlich of Westside Estate Agency had the listing.
