A Dutch Media Mogul’s Chateau-Style Home in Beverly Hills Is Up for Grabs at $32 Million
- Reinout Oerlemans, media industry veteran, sold his Bel Air mansion to The Weeknd for $69 million, then purchased a Beverly Hills home for $19.1 million from the widow of a real estate mogul.
Back in fall 2021, media and entertainment industry veteran Reinout Oerlemans sold his extravagant Bel Air mansion for a whopping $69 million to Abel Tesfaye, the Canadian superstar better known as the Weeknd, in one of California's priciest home sales that year. The 3 Ball Media Group chairman and chief creative officer and his onetime professional road cyclist wife Danielle then paid Lynda Brasali, widow of Indonesian real estate mogul Aldo Brasali, $19.1 million in an off-market deal for another smaller yet still glitzy house in Beverly Hills.
Now, after picking up another L.A. residence once owned by the late filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock and a New York City pied-à-terre, the Dutch media celebrities have decided they no longer need their 90210 spread. So, they've decided to hoist the neoclassical French chateau-style home resting alongside the Los Angeles Country Club on the market, asking a cool $32 million.

Built in the late 1980s but extensively remodeled during the Oerlemans's tenure, the two-story abode features a total of six bedrooms and eight baths spread across roughly 9,100 square feet. Decked out with warm tones and graceful curves, the elegant interiors "seamlessly blend old-world glamour with modern elegance" per listing agents Branden and Rayni Williams of The Beverly Hills Estates.
Tucked securely away behind wrought-iron gates and towering hedges, amid a lushly landscaped parcel of land spanning over an acre, the ivy-clad home greets with a motor court. Once inside, a double-height foyer bathed in light steps down to an expansive fireside living room with a separate lounging spot, as well as a formal dining room and a handsome wood-paneled office equipped with a seated bar.

Other main-level highlights include a gourmet kitchen outfitted with two islands, top-tier appliances, and a breakfast room sporting a built-in hutch, plus a family room that opens out onto an alfresco dining space shaded by mature grapevines. All the bedrooms can be found upstairs, including a spacious primary suite that comes complete with a seating area sidled up next to a fireplace, two sets of French doors spilling out onto a private balcony, and dual walk-in closets and baths.
In addition to numerous balconies and verandas offering up Southern California's quintessential indoor-outdoor lifestyle, the picturesque grounds also hold a lighted tennis court and a resort-like pool and spa flanked by a sundeck and a pool house. There's also a deck peering across the golf course.
