Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner make up one of the best-known couples in show business right now. The media follows these newlyweds every move, and recently the two made a major one. Following the purchase of a waterfront home in Miami, the power couple listed and successfully sold their Los Angeles home. The home, designed by world-renowned contemporary designer Jae Omar, is a unique and gorgeous property, with several features custom implemented by the couple.
Sophie Turner is a Hollywood actress who shot to superstardom following her role as one of the primary characters in the T.V. show Game of Thrones. Joe Jonas is a member of the Jonas Brothers, the boy band that took over the pop scene in the mid-2000s. Both are wildly successful, and the home they sold was up to their stature as high-powered show businesses celebrities.
Jae Omar, the designer of the home, is the head of Jae Omar Design. He utilizes a variety of influences to inspire the creations of home, including Japanese, natural, and minimalistic styles. Another one of his homes, ONIN, a Japanese-inspired reinvention of the modern farmhouse, is a mere stone’s throw away from the property sold by Jonas and Turner. Both are located in Encino, Los Angeles.
Encino is one of Los Angeles’ most luxurious areas. The estate sold by Turner and Jonas is located in Royal Oaks, an exclusive enclave in the area home to some of Los Angeles’ wealthiest and most famous residents. The homes have a feel of being removed from the chaos of the larger city while still being close enough to some of the best shopping and dining Los Angeles has to offer, with Ventura Boulevard. There are also an array of golf courses and country clubs that make Encino and Royal Oaks all the more appealing.
Beyond the property’s incredible location, many different aspects make the home an enticing opportunity. For one, the size of the property is significant. There are 15,000 square feet of living space, along with an exterior guest house that the couple completely redesigned. In the main home, there are ten bedrooms, 11 full bathrooms, and three half-bathrooms. There is enough space in the home to accommodate a family of any size.
The look of the home is also a big reason for its appeal. The home maximizes its natural spaces with an open concept house with high ceilings, lots of windows, and great lighting. The home’s design is simple and elegant, with tons of open space that makes the home’s 15,000 square feet feel much bigger. The outdoor areas are neatly manicured and landscaped with turf to give the property an extremely clean look. The floor plan encourages indoor-outdoor living, a common design trend in Omar’s homes.
Some of the materials used on the home help give it the look of a modern contemporary masterpiece. The home has wood design features and uses various imported stone design accents, which is one of the ways Omar uses nature as inspiration.
As far as amenities, this home has got it all. The house has a large outdoor lap pool, a gym, a spa, a custom wine cellar, and a six-car garage. There is also a movie theater with a state-of-the-art projector. The home has multiple dining rooms and living rooms that are perfect for entertaining and an open-concept chef’s kitchen with an island bar.
For a little livelier type of entertainment, Turner and Jonas had their guesthouse converted into an “entertainment oasis,” complete with an aquarium, fog machine, D.J. station, disco lights, and cigar humidor. This area is the perfect spot to let loose with friends.
Additionally, the home has a high-quality security system with perimeter fencing, an array of cameras, and other new technologies that will keep homeowners safe. The outdoor area also comes equipped with a putting green so residents can work on their short game.
In June, the home was listed by Turner and Jonas for an asking price of $16.75 million and was promptly swept up by a currently unnamed buyer for $15.2 million. Originally, Turner and Jonas bought the property for $14.1 million two years before.
The new owners of this lavish modern home are getting a unique residence designed by one of the most well-known home creators to A-listers, Jae Omar. With a luxurious home, incredible amenities, and beautifully designed indoor and outdoor spaces, this property is truly a rare find.
