From Downtown to the Pacific, Los Angeles becomes part of the architecture. Introducing The Observatory, a gated contemporary estate in Bel Air conceived around the city, canyon, and ocean views that define its setting. Spanning approximately 9,200 SF, the residence is designed to draw that panorama into everyday life through walls of Fleetwood glass, covered terraces on every level, and an expansive rooftop overlooking Los Angeles. Offered approximately 85% complete and sold in its current unfinished condition, The Observatory invites its next owner to bring the architectural vision to completion and make the finished residence their own. The following describes the envisioned completed home. Twelve-foot ceilings and floating staircases define open living spaces designed to flow onto the terraces. A show kitchen and separate chef's kitchen support both everyday meals and larger gatherings, with room for evenings to move from dinner indoors to conversation overlooking the city. The outdoor design includes a pool and spa with floating pavers, an oversized step-in lounging platform, and a built-in barbecue. Da Vinci fireplaces create focal points for gathering after sunset, extending the home's entertaining spaces into the open air. A naturally lit lower level brings together an entertainment lounge, bar, wine cellar, and theater, alongside a gym, steam shower, and dry sauna. Guest suites and expansive patios complete the level. Upstairs, the en-suite bedrooms include a primary retreat with a fireplace, private terrace, spa-inspired bath, and oversized dual closets. The design also incorporates elevator access to all levels and smart home automation. The experience culminates on the approx. 3,000 SF rooftop deck. Envisioned with multiple lounge areas, it offers space for a quiet pause above the city or an evening shared with friends as the skyline lights up. Here, the breadth of the setting becomes the centerpiece, stretching from Downtown through the canyons toward the Pacific. From skyline to shoreline, The Observatory is envisioned as a private place to experience Los Angeles in full. With the residence approximately 85% complete, the opportunity is to bring that vision to life and make this perspective your own.
