Elon Musk’s HK$35 Million Los Angeles Home Hits the Market
by Fontaine Cheng
The Los Angeles home formerly owned and occupied by tech billionaire Elon Musk -- the man behind Tesla and SpaceX -- was recently listed for US$4.5 million (HK$35 million). Musk purchased the property in 2014 with his ex-wife, British actress Talulah Riley, for US$3.69 million in 2014; he later transferred ownership of the home, located in the Brentwood neighbourhood, to Riley in 2016, the year they finalised their divorce.
Boasting four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the 3,000-square-foot property is equipped with high-tech amenities -- what else would you expect from a tech entrepreneur and engineer? -- to adjust window shades, lights, audio, video monitors, temperature, and security at the touch of a button.
Listed by agents Andrew Buss and David Kramer of luxury real estate agents Hilton & Hyland, the curvaceous, mid-century modern mansion also features spacious, open-plan rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, private backyard, fireplace, saltwater plunge pool and spa -- as well as views of the city and the Pacific Ocean.
Here’s a closer look inside.
