Los Angeles Home For Sale

Designed and built as the personal residence of Hagy Belzberg, FAIA, this exceptional 5,000 square foot architectural home is a rare expression of a master architect building for himself. Belzberg's work, recognized internationally through decades of award-winning residential, cultural, and hospitality projects, has long explored the intersection of experimentation and livability. That philosophy is fully realized here, in a home conceived and built for personal use, free from the constraints of speculation, where every decision reflects the priorities of an architect designing for his own life. Set privately and securely, in a gated 4-home enclave, on a 2- acre lot with sweeping city and canyon views, the residence unfolds as a sequence of carefully calibrated spaces defined by steel framing, warm wood surfaces, and expansive walls of glass. Light, proportion, and circulation are methodically considered, creating a home that is both aesthetically singular and deeply comfortable. The main living level is conceived for both everyday living and sophisticated entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling walls of glass dissolve the boundaries between interior and exterior, opening to terraces, gardens, and a dramatic infinity-edge pool that appears to float above the landscape. Living and dining spaces flow effortlessly into a design-forward kitchen with custom millwork, professional-grade appliances, and generous storage integrated seamlessly into the architecture. Throughout the home, bespoke detailing reflects the sensibility of an architect's own residence: integrated shelving and libraries, curated sightlines, and thoughtful transitions between public and private zones. A private media room offers a cinematic retreat, while a dedicated gym provides a discreet wellness space, and a 3-station library/study area invites educational and occupational advancement. The primary suite is a serene sanctuary, framed by panoramic views and anchored by warm materials and clean lines. A spa-like bath, generous closets, and a sense of calm separation complete the experience. The three additional bedroom suites maintain the same level of design achievement and comfort. The outdoor spaces are equally intentional: layered terraces, intimate garden moments, and seating areas designed for both gathering and solitude. As day turns to dusk, the home glows from within, the architecture revealing its structure and rhythm against the evening sky. More than a residence, this is a self-authored work of architecture; a home conceived without compromise, where innovation serves livability, and design is meant to be inhabited, not merely admired. Located moments away from the coveted dining, nightlife and shopping on San Vicente and in Brentwood Country Mart and within some of the city's most highly acclaimed public schools (Kenter Canyon Elementary Charter, Paul Revere Charter Middle School and Palisades Charter High School).
