Los Angeles has long been the measuring stick for luxury real estate, and its current crop of $40 million-plus listings proves why. The city’s rarefied pockets of Bel-Air, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Pacific Palisades are home to some of the priciest real estate in the country, where even a $40 million budget can feel like an opening bid.
Bel-Air alone holds two of the city’s most eye-popping listings: Casa Encantada, a $165 million estate built in 1937 by architect James E. Dolena on 8.4 acres overlooking the Bel-Air Country Club, and La Fin, a $118 million modern residence with 12 bedrooms, 17 bathrooms, and sweeping city-to-ocean views.
West Hollywood’s Bird Streets adds its own $68 million contender — a newly constructed nine-bedroom estate with a 100-foot infinity pool, 30-person spa, and a travertine-clad primary suite.
Even at the “entry level” of this roundup, Pacific Palisades delivers an 18,000-square-foot home relisted for just under $40 million (though a quick look at it will tell you why we simply couldn’t leave it out). Designed by Tom Leishman and Michael Palumbo, the brand-new home combines high-caliber materials with structural durability — an important factor in a region recently tested by wildfires.
Taken together, these properties show that, regardless how hard other cities might try, there’s still no match for Los Angeles when it comes to luxury real estate.

#1 Casa Encantada at 10644 Bellagio Rd: $165,000,000
If one address sums up Bel-Air’s reputation for over-the-top estates, it’s Casa Encantada. Listed at staggering $165 million, this 1937 masterpiece sits on 8.4 acres overlooking the Bel-Air Country Club and is widely considered one of Los Angeles’ most significant homes.
Designed by James E. Dolena and meticulously restored by Peter Marino, the property blends architectural pedigree with Art Deco glamour — and enough space to make even LA’s biggest estates look modest.
8.4 Acres in Bel-Air — A private world with its own road
Land is the ultimate luxury in Los Angeles, and Casa Encantada has more than most. The property is fully usable, encircled by a private paved road, and features rolling lawns, formal rose gardens, tropical landscaping, and a north-south tennis court with its own viewing pavilion.
It’s a rare slice of unbroken acreage in Bel-Air — part estate, part private park.
A grand residence with 7 bedrooms and 20 baths
Inside, the scale is unmistakable. The main residence opens with a sweeping staircase and a 14-foot-high grand hall, leading to formal living and dining rooms, a walnut-paneled library, and an Art Deco bar that wouldn’t look out of place in Old Hollywood.
Upstairs, the primary suite takes over with two sitting rooms, dual marble baths, and enormous closets — plus three more bedrooms for family or guests.
Restored to perfection in true Deco style
Rather than modernizing away its character, Casa Encantada was carefully brought back to its original 1930s spirit. Every ceiling molding, steel-framed window, and custom finish was reimagined under Peter Marino’s direction, honoring the work of original interior designer T. H. Robjohns Gibbons.
The result is a residence that feels both timeless and completely livable — a rare trick for a nearly century-old home.
Amenities for entertainment on a monumental scale
This isn’t just a house for quiet weekends. With a 60-foot tiled pool, a pool pavilion that doubles as a professional screening room, vast lawns, and even a sports court, Casa Encantada was built to host everything from garden parties to red-carpet premieres.
#2 La Fin at 1200 Bel Air Rd: $118,000,000
If Casa Encantada stands for Bel-Air’s historic pedigree, La Fin is its ultra-modern counterpart.
Priced at $118 million — and yes, the seller accepts cryptocurrency — this 12-bedroom, 17-bathroom estate sprawls over two acres with uninterrupted views of Los Angeles. Every inch was purpose-built to impress, from the glass-walled entry and custom Italian furnishings to the 44-foot chandelier sparkling with 55,000 crystals.
12 Bedrooms, 17 bathrooms, and endless space to welcome guests
La Fin was designed on a grand scale — and you may have caught a glimpse of it before, when famed Youtuber MrBeast toured it in his viral video. The main level alone features an oversized stone bar, a massive hand-carved fireplace, and motorized Fleetwood doors that disappear to connect the formal living spaces with the infinity pool and 30-person lounge area.
Upstairs, the primary suite spans an entire wing, complete with lounge, coffee bar, two showroom-style walk-in closets, and a spa bathroom wrapped in Calacatta Gold marble.
With custom luxury interiors, extensive security
Fingerprint entry, a full security command center, and separate staff quarters keep this massive estate running smoothly behind the scenes.
Every piece of furniture was designed specifically for La Fin by Italian luxury brand La Contessina, ensuring that nothing here feels off-the-shelf. It’s a home tailored for someone who wants every detail — and every inch — to feel one-of-a-kind.
Amenities you won’t find anywhere else, including a 6-car display that turns luxury cars into art pieces
The 6,000-square-foot lower level is essentially its own private resort. Highlights include a 1,000-bottle wine cellar, cigar lounge, ice-cold vodka tasting room, and an automated six-car elevator display that turns luxury vehicles into art pieces.
There’s also a full commercial-grade catering space, a rock climbing wall in the fitness center, and a sound-proof cinema — all under lofty 18-foot ceilings.
Outdoor living, upgraded
Every level of La Fin opens to outdoor space. The infinity pool comes with a 23-foot LED screen that rises on command for open-air movie nights, while the rooftop deck adds yet another spa, fire table, and built-in seating area — all with views that sweep from downtown to the Pacific.
Even the primary suite gets its own private wraparound terrace with a fire pit and outdoor TV.
#3 9330 Flicker Way in West Hollywood’s famed Bird Streets: $68,000,000
This newly built West Hollywood estate comes with nine bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, and a front-row seat to some of LA’s best canyon and skyline views — all spread across nearly 500 feet of coveted Bird Streets frontage.
Listed at $68 million, the property combines sleek architecture with over-the-top amenities, delivering both privacy and a dramatic setting.
Living spaces built for both scale and style
Guests enter beneath cascading fountains and a bespoke chandelier into a 13-foot-high living room anchored by layered stone fireplaces.
The Arclinea kitchen flows into a European-style wine room illuminated by a sculptural pendant light, while floor-to-ceiling glass panels vanish to open the home completely to the outdoors.
A primary suite with dual dressing rooms and a reading vestibule
The main bedroom isn’t just a room — it’s a 1,500-square-foot retreat. Features include dual dressing rooms, a reading vestibule, a travertine bath with twin soaking tubs, fire features, and a private balcony with its own Jacuzzi, offering an uninterrupted look at the lights of Los Angeles.
Extras include hookah and mediation lounges, a panic room, and more
Beyond the expected luxuries, this home packs in a screening room, gym, hookah and meditation lounges, a command center-style office, panic room, and even a shoeshine station. It’s a property designed to be as functional as it is striking — and ready for an owner who expects nothing less.
Outdoor amenities rival a private resort with a 100-foot infinity pool and 30-person spa
The terraces are designed for entertaining at any level: a 100-foot infinity pool, an 18-foot sunken fire pit, a 30-person spa, and even a sand volleyball court, all set against sweeping canyon-to-city views. Whether it’s an afternoon swim or a nighttime gathering, the backdrop never disappoints.
#4 The Quincy Jones Estate at 1101 Bel Air Pl: $59,995,000
Perched on a 2.3-acre promontory in lower Bel Air, this 24,920-square-foot estate was designed for music legend Quincy Jones and remains one of the neighborhood’s most private properties.
Listed at just under $60 million with David Kramer and Andrew Buss of the David Kramer Group at Compass, the home delivers sweeping 270-degree views from the San Gabriel Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, along with a layout designed for large-scale entertaining and resort-style living.
A secluded property with rare flat land
The gated estate sits at the end of a cul-de-sac and makes full use of its acreage with rolling lawns, lush gardens, verandas, and patios. A full-size lighted tennis court and infinity pool add to the feeling of a private compound, while unobstructed views wrap around nearly the entire site.
Nearly 25,000 square feet of interiors centered around a circular wing
Created in collaboration with architect Gerald “Jerry” Allison, the residence is centered around a circular wing that holds the grand living room, library, bar, and terrace.
A sun-filled double-height atrium connects to a wine bar, tasting room, and cellar, with an indoor garden adding a dramatic focal point. A game lounge and cabana open directly to the pool terrace, reinforcing the home’s retreat-like feel.
With a rustic gourmet kitchen
Occupying the entire east side of the house, the primary suite includes a luxe bedroom, spa-style bath, multiple walk-in closets, gym, den, and a private balcony.
This wing also houses a formal dining room, gourmet kitchen with butler’s pantry, family room, and staff quarters — keeping daily living spaces connected yet separate from guest areas.
Grand entertaining spaces that honor the home’s past
The west wing provides three additional guest suites, including a junior primary with its own living room, dual bathrooms, walk-in closet, and terrace.
A state-of-the-art screening room, professional office with reception, dedicated security office, gallery, and elevator round out the amenities. With its cultural legacy and bold scale, the estate has hosted Hollywood royalty, dignitaries, and legendary artists — all within minutes of Sunset Boulevard.

Five acres of outdoor living, from pool to tennis court
The grounds are designed to feel like a private resort. A pool and spa sit at the center of expansive lawns with a putting and chipping green, while a sunken tennis court — convertible for pickleball or basketball — comes with its own viewing pavilion, changing room, and bath.
At night, the entire property glows with carefully planned lighting and music throughout.
Inside, it has a chef’s kitchen made for serious cooking and casual gatherings
The kitchen anchors the main level with a double Wolf range, dual Dacor refrigerators, a butler’s pantry, and an oversized island. A temperature-controlled wine room and spacious breakfast area with big-screen TV make it as comfortable as it is functional.

Home design that embraces water, light, and nature
A 20-foot cascading water wall anchors the residence, dropping into pools around a 150-year-old olive tree imported from Italy. Outside, an infinity-edge swimmer’s pool races toward the skyline, flanked by two firepits and endless seating for taking in those epic views.
High-end appliances, marble, and modern finishes define the interiors
Two kitchens, both packed with top-tier appliances, mean you can keep dinner parties elegant out front while your culinary team works magic behind the scenes.
Highlights include a 14-foot marble island, Gaggenau appliances, a 16-burner Viking stove, and a private service entry to keep things seamless.
A primary suite with its own spa, deck, and endless city views
The owner’s retreat is all about privacy and luxury. Two baths, oversized custom wardrobes, and a private deck with its own spa make this feel like a five-star hotel you never have to leave. Six additional guest suites are thoughtfully spaced apart for maximum comfort and separation.
Resort-style wellness and entertainment at home
From a full wellness center with gym, sauna, and steam to a private theater, elevator, and 2,000-bottle wine cellar, this house takes “staycation” to a new level. Invisible electronic shades, five fireplaces, and commercial-grade systems make the entire space effortless to live in.

With grand interiors featuring 40-foot ceilings and a shark tank dining room
