Only weeks after investing nearly ten mil in a Malibu contemporary Mediterranean style—which had, for a seller, ‘CSI’ creator Anthony Zuiker—Parsons was at it again in Hollywood Hills. This time the tally ran to $6.775 million.
This time around, the house is a stark modern-style, and a very recent build: the listing rundown indicates it was completed this year. The exterior is boxy, glassy and imposing, with a great deal of poured concrete augmenting all the plate glass, and a bit of wood underneath the eves to faintly whisper a rumor of warmth.
Within, the home is chilly, detached and somewhat fascinating, a mood piece that finds ornament in the texture of hardwood and the massive marble faces that crop up in the six baths. The lack of ornament allows the sense of space top priority in the living area, where a glass ceiling portal liberates and connects the first floor and the staircase.
There are 5 bedrooms in the house—including an expansive master—as well as a full complement of upscale amenities, including a home theater with tiered seating, a wine room, a fitness room, and smart controls. Most of the lot is occupied by house, but the perimeters do find room for a pool and fairly expansive covered/uncovered patio without looking unduly cramped, and the roof sports a deck that makes the best of those panoramic views.
