The Paul Williams-designed Holmby Hills estate tucked right next to Kylie Jenner’s gated compound went into contract this week, snagging the top spot on last week’s list of luxury signed deals in Los Angeles. The pending sale centers on a storied Mapleton Drive address that recently resurfaced with an asking price in the mid-$20 millions, underscoring how a celebrity-adjacent gate code still goes a long way on the Westside.
According to Redfin, the house at 111 North Mapleton Drive was listed at $25.5 million and spans roughly 13,189 square feet, with seven bedrooms and more than a dozen bathrooms. Redfin’s MLS summary shows the property as pending at about $1,933 per square foot and identifies Kurt Rappaport of Westside Estate Agency as the listing agent.
As reported by The Real Deal, the Mapleton property ranked as the No. 1 home to go into contract for the week in the Eklund Weekly Luxury Report Los Angeles. That snapshot tallied 24 properties and roughly $190.3 million in total asking volume for the period, according to the report cited by the outlet.
A Paul Williams Original
The 1936 residence was originally designed by famed architect Paul Williams and has been expanded and updated over the years to suit modern entertaining. A Compass listing highlights amenities such as a lighted north-south tennis court, resort-style pool, library, screening room, and a two-story cabana. Local property pages also point to a significant interior renovation that reworked the estate’s footprint and finishes; earlier marketing materials are archived at Carolwood Estates.
Neighboring Celebrity Compound
Next door, Kylie Jenner’s compound at 145 North Mapleton Drive sits on nearly an acre and was completed in 2019. She bought the property for $36.5 million in 2020 and brought it back to market late last year for $48 million, according to earlier reporting by the Los Angeles Times. With that kind of star power on the block, it is not hard to see why Mapleton Drive listings draw instant scrutiny from high-end buyers and their brokers.
Market Context
Industry trackers focused on $4 million-plus homes say last week’s action fits into a broader uptick in high-end deals across Los Angeles County. The Eklund Weekly, compiled by Douglas Elliman’s Eklund Gomes team, pulls its figures directly from MLS listings to show where luxury asking volume is clustering week by week. The report is published online through the team’s site (Eklund Gomes).
Buyers and agents will be watching closely to see whether the Mapleton sale closes near its asking price and what that might signal for Holmby Hills values going forward. For now, the pending deal is the latest reminder that classic architecture and celebrity neighbors keep Mapleton Drive firmly in the real estate spotlight.
