THE PROPERTY

Get to know the property.

Steeped in 1930s architectural grace and anchored in the coveted estate enclave of Brentwood Park, 251 N. Bristol Avenue represents an irreplaceable convergence of Westside history, traditional elegance, and sheer land value. Beyond the secure entry gates and broad circular driveway lies a generational trophy asset, stewarded by a single family for nearly half a century and available for the first time in 50 years. Welcoming you with a timeless two-story columned portico framed by sprawling green lawns and mature, towering specimen trees, the Georgian Colonial Revival residence opens to classic proportions and refined scale. The formal entryway features a double-height foyer with a sweeping curved bridal staircase, rich hardwood flooring, and intricate period moldings. Designed for both grand entertaining and relaxed living, the main floor flows effortlessly between light-filled public spaces. The generous formal living room boasts a stately fireplace mantel, deep crown moldings, and classic sash bay windows overlooking the lush front grounds, while the banquet-sized formal dining room sets an elegant backdrop for large-scale hosting. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite serves as a peaceful sanctuary, complete with dedicated sitting areas, dual baths, expansive closet spaces, and tree-canopy views of the grounds below. Additional guest suites offer comfort and privacy for family or live-in staff. The exterior grounds unfold as a private resort oasis, featuring a large swimmer's pool, expansive stone terracing, a garden gazebo, stone arbor, and a dedicated pool house pavilion enclosed by towering privacy hedging. An Unparalleled Location & Development Thesis: Positioned on a premier corner parcel in Brentwood Park, one of Southern California's most capital-protected, prestigious, and tightly held real estate enclaves, flat corner lots of this size and prominence are virtually impossible to replicate. Located moments from the Brentwood Country Club, fine Westside dining, and elite private schools, this property offers an extraordinary foundation for the future: Remodel & Preserve: Honor the historic 1930s Georgian architecture with a sensitive, high-end interior modernization that maintains its classic street presence. Redesign & Expand: Reconfigure and expand the existing floor plan into a custom contemporary showplace tailored to modern luxury standards. Build New: Capitalize on the expansive, flat corner footprint to build a world-class, multi-structure private estate compound with subterranean amenities, wellness spaces, and sweeping grounds. This is not merely a home; it is one of the finest land and lifestyle opportunities available on the Los Angeles market today.

How this scenario is calculated

Annual operating income is rent after vacancy, management, maintenance, taxes, insurance, HOA and other operating costs, before financing and capital reserves. Cap rate divides annual operating income by purchase price. Estimated monthly cash flow assumes an all-cash purchase: rent after vacancy, management, maintenance, taxes, insurance, HOA, other operating costs and capital reserves. No mortgage payment is deducted. The mortgage calculator is separate; loan payments would reduce cash flow for a financed purchase. One-time acquisition costs, renovations, income taxes, depreciation and appreciation are excluded.

Mortgage assumptions

20% down and 7% interest are illustrative starting values.

Estimated monthly principal & interestLoan payment only. Excludes property taxes, homeowners/flood insurance, mortgage insurance and HOA dues.

About this payment estimate

Based on a fixed-rate, fully amortizing loan with monthly payments and the price, down payment, interest rate and term you select. The interest rate is an example, not a current rate offer or APR; APR includes certain loan costs. This is an illustration, not a Loan Estimate, approval, offer of credit or commitment to lend.

Your actual payment, rate and eligibility depend on your lender, credit, loan program and property. Closing costs, points, prepaid expenses and lender fees are not included. Taxes and insurance may change, and mortgage insurance may be required, particularly with a down payment below 20%. Ask your lender for a Loan Estimate and a complete monthly payment including applicable taxes, insurance and fees.

Dollar results are rounded to the nearest cent; calculations retain precision until display. A cash purchase has no loan payment but still has ownership costs. Understand your total home payment (CFPB).
