The 105,000sf Bel Air estate, represented by agents Aaron Kirman, Branden Williams, and Rayni Williams, will be auctioned in February via Concierge Auctions.
An estate for the ages, The One is an oasis beyond compare perched high above of the City of Angels, where a luxurious lifestyle, popular culture, and seclusion reign supreme. Never before listed for sale, the property is set to be listed on January 7th for $295 million. Multibillion-dollar producing international real estate agents Aaron Kirman of Aaron Kirman Group at Compass and Branden and Rayni Williams of Williams & Williams at The Beverly Hills Estates have teamed together to conduct the sale of The One as hired parties in the sale of this once-in-a-lifetime gargantuan estate. Bidding in the No Reserve auction is scheduled to be held February 28th–March 3rd via our online marketplace, ConciergeAuctions.com, allowing buyers to bid digitally from anywhere in the world.
The first and last of its kind, The One is elevated to maximize its 360-degree panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, downtown Los Angeles, and the San Gabriel Mountains. The One is a work of art set on 3.8 acres appearing to float above the very city of Los Angeles itself. Ten years in the making, the estate is the largest and grandest house ever built in the urban world. A home of this magnitude will never again be built in Los Angeles, cementing The One in a class of its own. It also offers an unmatched opportunity to experience living on a scale beyond your wildest dreams. Surrounded on three sides with a shimmering moat of water, the property is spread over a jaw-dropping 105,000-square-feet.

QUOTES:
"The One is the largest single-residence property that the world has to offer. The truth is, there is an exceedingly small group of potential buyers for a property of this caliber,” said Lawrence Perkins, Crestlloyd Manager. “In tandem with our listing agents, Aaron Kirman, Branden Williams, and Rayni Williams, we have decided to team up with Concierge Auctions to uncover those discerning ultra-luxury buyers with their global database of 775,000+ HNW individuals. The ultimate goal is to run a thoughtful sale process that will maximize value, reach, and speed.”
“The One is created for today's billionaire seeking a truly unrepeatable asset, and when it sells, it will be the most significant purchase in the world," said Aaron Kirman, founder and president of the eponymously named Aaron Kirman Group and president of the International Estates Division at tech-leading real estate company, Compass. "While in 2021, digital properties like NFTs grabbed headlines for monumental one-of-kind-sales, 2022 brings us back to the physical world with The One—a real estate property unmatched in size, scale, safety and triumphant design.”
Listing Agent Rayni Williams adds, “The One is simply unrivaled. This property features ultra-luxury amenities beyond any buyer’s wildest dreams. There’s a reason The One is setting a new high watermark for global real estate—more flat land coupled with the biggest views, more so than any other property previously for sale in Los Angeles.”
Listing Agent Branden Williams continues, “Of California's many world-class locales, Bel Air continues to attract some of the world’s biggest stars because of its reputation for the utmost residential privacy, fantastic weather and relaxed local lifestyle. Even here, The One truly stands in a class of its own. This zip code has become synonymous with wealth and success, and we anticipate that trend will continue for decades to come.”
“Never before listed, the upcoming auction of The One will allow buyers to make history by purchasing the largest and one of the most expensive single-residence home to ever hit the global market,” said Chad Roffers, Chairman of Concierge Auctions. “Since the inception of Concierge Auctions, the highest level of luxury auctions have become our hallmark. We have set four consecutive world records for the highest price ever achieved at real estate auction, most recently in California. The right buyers will have access to our fully online global bidding platform for a truly unprecedented opportunity.”
Starting January 20th, The One will be available for showings daily by appointment and additionally available for private virtual showings.
As part of our Key for Key® giving program in partnership with Giveback Homes, the closing will result in a new home built for a family in need.
