If you want to have your socks really blown off - Google Scott Gillen's "Case" houses in Malibu. I think one of them is for sale for $100M.  10K+ sq/ft MCM-style home on 3-ish acres? |
Yea - not as easy to find steals on craigslist anymore, haha.
That house is amazing! Wow! My only issue is why enclose the entire shower with glass? Seems like one can open up a couple of those glass panels and be fine. $100mm? Funny that I couldn't even afford the maintenance each year let alone the property tax! So even if he gave it to me, I couldn't keep it haha.
Would love to see the receipt for how much that furniture cost! I bet that main couch is at least $25k.

What is this thing you guys keep calling a lawn? Talk to me like I don't like in a desert where we live on top of each other.
It's like this word acre... WTH is that.

Friends come over - and you get to play, "What's behind door number X" Looks like a great place to start adding some customization.

Oaks are really nice! There are a couple communities in LA that have oaks on a DO NOT TOUCH list. So no matter what you do to the yard, you cannot touch or take out the oak trees.
I love MCM as well. My house is a hodge podge of different stuff. The outside is definitely not, haha. The MCM houses in Orange County are rare. There are some but then the price for the area isn't of interest to me.

Here is one for sale right now. Little less than 1800sw ft for a little over a million. Would need about $150-200k in renovations though.

I love looking at the overhead map view. The MCM homes have such a different aerial view from surrounding houses.
I should drive through that area.... hmmm....
