Ten years in the making, the jaw-dropping 105,000-square-foot estate cements itself in a class of it's own as a home of this magnitude will never again be built in Los Angeles.
The One is officially pending sale for over $141 million—more than double the highest US real estate sale at auction and nearly 50% higher than the world record
NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, March 3, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Concierge Auctions is pleased to announce that The One in Bel Air, California, America’s largest residence, is now pending sale for over $141 million in cooperation with multibillion-dollar producing international real estate agents Aaron Kirman of Aaron Kirman Group at Compass and Branden and Rayni Williams of Williams & Williams at The Beverly Hills Estates.
After a competitive field of bidder activity, the auction closed on March 3rd at a price more than double the highest U.S sale at auction and nearly 50% higher than the world record. When closed, the sale will mark Concierge Auctions’ fifth World Record for the highest price ever achieved for a residence at auction.
“Since the inception of Concierge Auctions, the highest level of luxury auctions have become our hallmark: The One was no exception,” stated Chad Roffers, Concierge Auctions President. “In only 55 days, we secured a strong field of global interest from America to Europe, Asia, and The Middle East, doing exactly what we do best—finding the most affluent buyers from every pocket of the world. We’re thrilled to have broken our own previous world record for the fifth consecutive time, once again breaking the record with a California property, and to make history by selling the largest residence to ever hit the global market.”
“The One had the most impressive marketing campaign that received global exposure and we've toured more than 42 qualified ultra-high-net-worth individuals since launching the sales efforts,” stated Aaron Kirman, Founder and President of the eponymously named Aaron Kirman Group and President of the International Estates Division at tech-leading real estate company, Compass. “There's still a lot of work to do and now it's in the hands of the bankruptcy courts to move the sale forward.”
“The winning bidder believes in the property and is passionate about owning a piece of L.A. history. After a massive six-week global campaign and a very tense last two minutes at auction, we are happy to see The One write its next chapter,” said Rayni and Branden Williams, Co-Founders, and CEOs of The Beverly Hills Estates.
The global exposure generated by Concierge Auctions resulted in over 200,000 website/page views from 170 countries—led by the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, and the Netherlands and over 2,800 prospects, 40 showings, and 5 bidders from the United States and New Zealand.
An estate for the ages, The One sits high above the City of Angels, where a luxurious lifestyle, popular culture, and seclusion reign supreme. The first and last of its kind, The One is a work of art set on 3.8 acres with breathtaking, 360-degree panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, downtown Los Angeles, and the San Gabriel Mountains. Ten years in the making, the estate is the largest and grandest house ever built in the urban world. The property is spread over a jaw-dropping 105,000-square-feet with every imaginable mega-resort style amenity, including five vast pools, a private nightclub, full-service beauty salon, wellness spa, 10,000-square-foot sky deck, 400-foot private outdoor running track, private Dolby Digital theater, and much more.
“I could not have asked for a better group of agents to work with on this monumental auction,” stated Mario Vargas, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development at Concierge Auctions. “From our expert listing agents’ partnership, to agents and prospective buyers traveling across the world to view this once-in-a-lifetime property, to top agents in the market touring and working to maximize the global exposure to their own networks—we are pleased to work with spectacular individuals on every sale to achieve outcomes like this.”
