The seven-bedroom, 11-bath house is owned by plastic surgeon Dr. Alex Khadavi.
“Seven is a number and theme that has affected me in every important aspect of my life,” Khadavi stated in an interview, “from the age I came to America, to the floor level of my condominium.”
Khadavi, who concerned the United States in 1979 from Tehran, is 48.
And significantly, the house has actually been 7 years in the making, and its remarkable before-and-after pictures expose a shocking change.
In 2014, the old exterior of 777 Sarbonne was covered in yellow stucco and red awnings.

CNBC initially reported on the residential or commercial property in 2014, when the website was house to a dated stucco estate acquired by Khadavi for $16 million. The physician’s realty broker, Aaron Kirman, informed CNBC that a number of months after Khadavi purchased it, he got a $24 million deal from a designer who was aiming to purchase the unaltered residential or commercial property to take down the old house and develop a brand-new one in its location.
Instead of accepting the deal, which was an $8 million benefit from his purchase cost, Khadavi chose to establish it himself. He worked with Ali Rad Design and started a seven-year journey to provide the old estate a facelift.

“Facelift is an understatement, but yeah, seven years and so many millions, I don’t even want to know how many,” stated Kirman, who now co-lists 777 Sarbonne with Mauricio Umansky of The Agency RE.
The living-room has 21-foot ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling glass wall that opens to the yard.

The estate remodeling was almost an overall teardown, its owner stated. Only one wall from the old home is still standing. It’s in the contemporary house’s brand-new living-room.
Gone is the red paint and black wrought iron sidewalk. Now, it’s streamlined white walls, polished Carrera marble floorings and a 21-foot-tall wall of glass that opens to jaw-dropping views of Los Angeles.
Khadavi likewise constructed a secret into the living-room that’s developed to charm visitors. With the touch of a button, a part of the flooring that is concealed underneath a carpet can be set into movement. It quickly starts increasing towards the ceiling. Mirrored steel supports, powered by an industrial-strength hydraulic lift, press the marble 7 feet into the air. Within a couple of seconds, a smooth DJ cubicle and dance platform — formerly concealed in a below ground level of the house — take spotlight.

Khadavi stated he prepares to predict the digital art over the swimming pool and function NFTs on screens throughout your home.

The vista is safeguarded by a view easement that cost the previous owner $500,000, Kirman stated. The easement avoids the next-door neighbor listed below from developing a house and even growing a tree that will block the view at 777 Sarbonne.
“It’s a huge important aspect of the sale of this house,” Kirman stated. “I think they got away light paying $500,000 because this house is all about the view and the view speaks for itself.”

Khadavi accentuated those views with fire functions and a lot of areas to kick back and take it all in.
