Listings: James Jannard’s Brutalist “Villain’s Lair” Is on the Market for $68 Million USD
Built entirely in poured-in-place concrete.
Serial entrepreneur and designer James Jannard – best known as the founder of Oakley – has offered his monolithic mansion in Beverly Hills up for sale.
A Brutalist fortress spanning 18,000 square feet, this monumental home is situated on one of the best view promontories in Trousdale, bestowing it with unobstructed views of the entire Los Angeles Basin from downtown to the sea. Built entirely in exquisite poured-in-place concrete, the home features every conceivable amenity, including a circular motor court reminiscent of Stonehenge, stunning rooms bathed in natural sunlight and a living room with a glass wall that disappears into the ground.
Inside, the property embraces a cold, retro-futuristic aesthetic that befits the opulent lifestyle of a supervillain. This includes a state-of-the-art theater, bar, gourmet kitchen, family room, full chef’s kitchen, beautiful ensuite guest room as well as a separate guest apartment. Onto the lower level, the home is fitted with a spectacular great room, gym, elevator, wine cellar and curved concrete hallways, while outside, entertainment areas and an all-tile infinity pool overlook the city, creating a unique and irreplicable work of art.
The interiors follow a consistent grayscale palette throughout, creating both a modernistic and intimidating atmosphere. Meanwhile, the prominent use of concrete, metal and dark wood finishings further amplifies the ultramodern design with steampunk-esque elements.
Originally listed in the summer of 2024, James Jannard’s Brutalist 410 Trousdale Pl home is currently listed for $68 million USD. Take a look around the property in the gallery above and head over to the realtors’ website for more information.
