The One (Los Angeles)

The One is a private residence in Bel Air, Los Angeles, California, United States. It is a compound of a main residence and three smaller houses in the modernist style and was developed by Nile Niami. The property is 105,000 square feet (9,800 m2) on 3.8 acres (1.5 ha).

Construction began in 2014. Following delays, it was completed in 2021. Niami initially sought to sell the mansion for $500 million, but his company fell into bankruptcy and the building sold at auction for $126 million, a record auction sale price in the United States.

It's owned by Richard Saghian who is a fast fashion douchebag.

this house became notorious a few years ago from a truly obnoxious YouTube house tour the builder gave a knockoff Robin Leach, then for hosting massive covid-rule breaking parties.

the video is quite a watch if you can get through it, I hated everyone involved

It costs $50,000 a month in electricity costs to cool during the summer

Thanks. I hated it even though I only watched a few bits and pieces.

knockoff Robin Leach

Indeed.

A comment...

As someone who has driven past this house maybe 1,000 times, I can tell you IRL this place looks like a military compound or a museum, not a home.

Yeah I came here to recommend the video, it's an absolutely incredible comedy as you watch a pathetic young money man try to pretend that he hasn't wasted all of his money on hubris to an old money man that is constantly judging his terrible choices.
