Former Atlanta Hawks forward Chandler Parsons — late of the Houston Rockets — sold his property in Hollywood Hills West this autumn. The Florida native picked up the appealing modern in the final days of 2019 for $6.8 million, and listed it about a year later with a $10.9 million ask. By this summer, the price had dropped to $8.8 million.

The 5,540 square-footer is both modern/monastic and curiosity-inducing. There’s a huge amount of glass in the build, giving the living style an unusual degree of openness. Walls of fixed glass panes, optional glass walls, and even a partial glass ceiling in the shared spaces lend a remarkable transparency to the whole, and diminish demarcation.

The five-bedroom property packs in a lap pool, and its location offers unobstructed city and ocean views. A gym, a wet bar, a wine room and a theater with Dolby Atmos sound complete a look at this unusually effective modern blend of the austere and the optimistic.

Parsons’ other real estate deals around SoCal include the purchase of a Malibu compound for $9.3 million back in 2019.
