[@hothotheat3000]

Great view of the tent cities below. Seriously, for $50 million, you can get a house in the hills with jetliner views, or a place in the flats of Beverly Hills, and have plenty left over for renovations. This is a nice place, but you can find nicer for way less.

[@nickcarter5569]

Okay, so we took a 5 million dollar house, stuck it in an apartment building, knocked all the walls out, and upped the price by 1000% 🦄🤷‍♂️ genius, truly.

[@PSPguy2]

Although there are a lot of postings saying it's boring and bland, I happen to like this property. It's too bad all the art was blurred as in so many videos today. The art can really make a big impact in defining the vibe and look of an interior.

[@paulo7200]

Go buy it. I doubt you'll be contending with any competing offers.

[@gardnmi]

Going to be worth less than $10M in 2 years.

[@natatatt]

Curious what kind of buyer would be attracted to this place. For the price, I would assume most potential buyers would prefer a house on land with pool etc, not a shared building.

[@Nardius1999]

It would have been a much better tour if they hadn't blurred the images of the paintings on the wall. I've never seen a house tour where they've had to do such a thing, especially when considering the fact that art is a major part of interior design.

[@zuzqaa]

If you watched last I don't know, few years? Every house in AD has to have blurred all art. Copyright issues 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think it's KZbin rules, but not sure.

[@Themartinbenavides]

50M for a West Hollywood home? Lmao I would never. And whoever does it’s beyond crazy.

Why do you blurt the art? I love art and I loke to see what designers chose to compliment the place.

[@1paradox]

I think it's something to do with copyrights where the artist doesn't give permission to show it or they didn't get authorization to show it.

[@arudanel5542]

@@1paradox Bingo. These aren't WalMart prints, these are pieces made (usually by living artists) who don't want some poster company from India screenshotting a 4K video and selling cheap knockoff "poster prints" off KZbin. Sad that that's the level of fraud we live in nowadays, but here we are. Just pick a popular show, and you'll find thousands of unofficial "posters" which are just print outs of pictures downloaded online, or screen shots from a show.

[@1paradox]

For super expensive art, the art is controlled by the artist, not the person who purchases / rents it. Plus they could have some nudity in the art that gets censored or if it is in fact an expensive piece art work they may not want to advertise it publicly and attract thieves.

[@TheKaurK]

I am not for defending a 50 million dollar penthouse but … why are people complaining about the lack of personality when it comes to staged houses? They are supposed to be blank canvases! So that the buyer has an easier time picturing themselves in there and figuring out what they’d be changing around. Not to mention some of the art they did put in there was blurred (likely due to some licensing stuff). All other complaints might be valid.. but this one’s not :/

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

The property taxes for this property are $625,000 per year. 1.25% of the sales price.

[@juliaw]

I will never understand how people got to the point of needing two huge kitchens. Of course I understand the principle in theory, but the fact that a kitchen EXISTS to cook, bake and use it and people get one to look nice ?? If you don’t use it then why the need for a kitchen with 4 ovens and a stove that nobody uses? If you don’t want to cook yourself, just put the kitchen in another room where your cooks can use them. But two?? And both with so many unnecessary and unused tools just to show off with how many tools your kitchen has?? … makes no sense

It is like a home for a couple who are determined never to have kids and really like to live in corporate luxury.
