The Washington Wizards’ Anthony Davis found a buyer for the Bel Air mansion he placed on the market last year at a nearly $40 million asking price.
The listing price is a big mark up for the former Los Angeles Lakers star, who paid $31 million for 2100 Stratford Circle in 2021. He made the pricey purchase just a few months after selling his 16,000-square-foot Westlake Village home for $6.6 million, taking a loss on the pad after spending $7.5 million for it in 2018. He originally sought $8 million for the North Ranch Country Club Estates home when it hit the market in 2020.
The Stratford Circle residence, which is over 17,000 square feet and counts eight bedrooms and a dozen bathrooms, marked last week’s top Los Angeles County home to go into contract based on asking price, according to the Eklund Weekly Luxury Report Los Angeles.
Marcy Roth of Douglas Elliman’s Eklund Gomes team compiles the weekly roundup of signed single-family and condominium deals, which counts listings of $4 million or more in the Multiple Listing Service.
The Stratford Circle mansion, which comes out to an asking price of $2,313 per square foot, touts an entry anchored by a 35-foot glass dome ceiling. Other amenities include a theater, massage room, hair salon, batting cage, cold plunge, elevator, tennis court and enough parking for over 30 cars.
Re/Max One’s Jordan Cohen holds the listing.
Last week’s second highest priced home to go into contract was 831 Georgina Avenue in Santa Monica.
The five-bedroom, six-bathroom home spans over 7,000 square feet, and is listed for just under $13 million, or $1,775 per square foot.
The home first went on the market in 2024 for $14.9 million, or $2,035 per square foot. It then saw several price reductions, with the most recent taken in January.
A trust tied to Dave Wirtschafter, president of the former William Morris Agency, is the seller, according to PropertyShark records.
Sotheby’s International Realty’s Susan Montgomery is the listing agent.
A total of 25 homes and condos went into contract last week and amounted to $181.3 million in asking volume, according to the Eklund Gomes report. That’s up over 65 percent in volume and six more contracts compared to the same time a year ago.
