About three years ago, actor John Travolta passed a Los Angeles estate on to entertainment-industry talent hound Scooter Braun. The selling price was $18 million.

According to public records, Travolta had owned the property for over two decades when it closed early in 2020. Braun didn’t hold on to it for quite that long; he listed it initially about a year ago for $24 million. This month, the compound popped up again. Right now, it is tagged at $19.95 million.

The home’s considerable history is pictorially represented by the property’s first impression: a vine-covered gatehouse standing sentry at the heel of a languorous, winding, landscaped drive. When the house itself comes into view, its exterior architecture and details sketch a Spanish-style with Modern design overtones, the latter represented primarily by an angular roof flourish in the rear that suggests planar forms poised for a collision vector.

At its heart, though, this is a thoroughgoing late-40s Spanish-style: a villa lifestyle with a great deal of romance to offer the L.A. traditionalist enamored of the Westside. Something of a sprawler, the 8,500 square-footer ambles genially across a goodly chunk of its 2.5 acres of grounds, accumulating into a forcefully asymmetrical and pleasantly eccentric form that wraps around a kidney-shaped pool and packs in six bedrooms and ten baths along the way.

Amenities on the estate include a sunken tennis court, but the acreage is likely the main draw for most buyers. Walkways traverse the hilly, tree-dotted land and the lawns that abut the residence.
