Inside The Embattled Pritzker Estate, Which Is On Sale For A Jaw-Dropping $195 Million #adessonews

In the hills of Beverly Crest, a neighborhood in Los Angeles’ Westside, looms the Pritzker estate, one of the largest homes in the US.

The 50,000-square-foot megamansion took six years to build and includes 16 bedrooms, 27 bathrooms, a tennis court, a basketball court, a cliffside pool, a detached guest house, a bowling alley, and a private movie theater.

It hit the market in October 2024 after owners Tony and Jeanne Pritzker, who initially separated in 2022, finalized their divorce with an undisclosed settlement earlier this year.

The Wall Street Journal reported that if the Pritzker estate sells for its asking price of $195 million, it would break the previous record for the priciest home sold in Los Angeles, held by Jeff Bezos.

The home, at 1261 Angelo Drive, is in Beverly Crest — a neighborhood with some huge mansions.

Among the Pritzkers’ neighbors was Jeff Bezos, who owns a property 1.4 miles away known as the Warner Estate.

He purchased the home for a record-breaking $165 million in 2020.

Zillow shows nearby homes range from $1.3 million to $150 million.

“You feel like you’re floating in the view,” local real-estate agent Rayni Williams told the Journal. Williams isn’t involved with the sale but has attended events at the home.

She added that the view is unique because properties of this size tend to be in flatter areas of LA, rather than up in the hills.

The home was designed by architect Ed Tuttle.

Tuttle, who died in 2020, was known for designing the Thai luxury resort Amanpuri.

This sitting area is surrounded by glass. The home was made for entertaining, specifically, according to Jeanne Pritzker, for charity events.

Mitt Romney held a fundraiser at the property in 2012, The Hollywood Reporter reported.

A living room showcases panoramic views of the city and one of the home’s 18 fireplaces. On a clear day, you can see the Pacific Ocean.

There’s a ground-floor patio and a balcony on the second floor. The property also has parking for anywhere from 80 to 100 cars.

The backyard also has an outdoor kitchen with two grills and a pizza oven.

There’s even a “custom swimsuit spinner,” per the Journal.
