After a nearly two-year span on the real estate market, The Weeknd has successfully divested his underutilized penthouse in Los Angeles’ Westwood neighborhood. Situated across the entire 18th floor of the prestigious Beverly West building, the penthouse-scale condominium found buyers in the form of the wedded Drs. David and Andrea Feinberg.
The couple, with a history including the presidency and CEO position at UCLA Health System and current Oracle Health chairmanship, procured the expansive condo for a sum of $18M. While this figure stands as one of the loftiest ever paid for a condominium in Los Angeles, it falls shy of the property’s original listing price of $22.5M. Notably, this negotiated transaction amount also registers at a $3M deficit compared to The Weeknd’s acquisition cost four years back. Nevertheless, any financial setbacks for the 33-year-old Canadian artist, whose real nаme is Abel Tesfaye, are unlikely to resonate significantly — he had previously upgraded to a lavish $69M estate in the prime location of Bel Air.
The central spectacle of this real estate marvel undeniably resides in the penthouse’s sweeping 360-degree vistas, encompassing panoramic scenes of Downtown Los Angeles, the Pacific Ocean, and the Santa Monica Mountains. The floor-to-ceiling windows adeptly capture the sprawling landscapes of the Los Angeles Country Club and its verdant golf courses, which abut the Beverly West building.
The dwelling encompasses four bedrooms and eight bathrooms, comprising a nearly 8,000-square-foot contemporary living space. Throughout this expanse, one encounters lofty ceilings, tasteful designer light fixtures, and rich walnut paneling.
The pinnacle of luxury is embodied by the master suite — an opulent haven boasting a boutique-style closet resembling a showroom, an expansive bathroom akin to a small apartment complete with a steam shower and soaking tub, and a private balcony.
Other standout features encompass a “wine vault” illuminated from behind and temperature-controlled, a gym enclosed in mirrored walls, a capacious great room that merges a living space with a well-equipped wet bar featuring a TV wall, as well as broad white oak plank flooring and a custom-designed Italian kitchen equipped with top-tier Miele appliances.
Constructed during the 2010s, the Beverly West edifice comprises merely 35 deluxe condominiums. All residents benefit from an array of communal amenities such as valet parking, round-the-clock concierge services, security personnel, an inviting pool, and even a rooftop helipad.
However, indulging in these luxuries comes at a premium — the monthly homeowner association dues for this specific penthouse exceed $8,000.
