James Jannard, the founder of Oakley, recently listed his Beverly Hills compound for $68 million after making a record-breaking $210 million sale in Malibu, surpassing Jay-Z. With an estimated net worth of $1.3 billion, Jannard has had a successful career in the business world, starting Oakley in 1975 before selling it for $2.1 billion and later founding Red Digital Cinema. The compound, spanning 18,000 square feet, features five bedrooms, ten bathrooms, and a large oval courtyard with massive metal doors.
Originally purchased in 2009 for $19,900,000, the futuristic fortress sits in Trousdale Estates at the foothills of the Santa Monica mountains. The property was built in 2016 and offers a unique and luxurious living space for its future owner. Jannard’s decision to sell the compound after his success in the real estate market further solidifies his status as a savvy entrepreneur and investor. The mansion’s design and amenities make it truly one of a kind, offering potential buyers a glimpse into a lavish and exclusive lifestyle.
