Fredrik Eklund is normally making headlines for his major listings and deals, but rarely for an opportunity such as this. After moving his family to L.A., Eklund sunk millions into renovating a Beverly Hills residence. Tailoring it exactly to them with the help of renowned designer Paris Forino, Eklund created a fantastic place to call home in Los Angeles. But, now someone else can get a taste of Eklund’s life here. The Million Dollar Listing star just put it on the market asking $50,000/month.
One may be wondering, why rent it out after so much work to make it their ultimate sanctuary? Well, real estate never stops and he has many high-end markets to oversee. A representative for the listing shares that the star broker calls himself a “global nomad” and consistently splits his time traveling between the five markets The Eklund | Gomes team operates in.
The representative explained, “This is his L.A. forever home but this year alone he also snatched up a Miami forever home he’s designing and a pied-à-terre at 64 University in NYC, which has sold out except for the unreleased penthouses.”
While Eklund is away, a renter can play. Nodding to the family’s origins, it mixes traditional East Coast architecture with contemporary pizzazz for an inviting and fabulously fresh feel. Wandering through the 5,674 square feet of interiors, 13 different shades of pink and tons of delicious marble tell a sophisticated yet whimsical color story.
The spaces also tell the story of Eklund’s own style, which he needs no opinions on. The broker shared, “I knew from the beginning that I wanted to push the envelope a little bit, Derek and I fully agreed on that. We didn’t really care what anybody else thinks. To say it doesn’t have to be right for anybody else, it just has to be right for us—that gave us freedom.”
The home will be delivered partially furnished, giving you room to make it yours as well. There are eight bedrooms, five bathrooms, breezy covered patios, and a plethora of amenities. A pool, BBQ area, and olive trees are just a few things to indulge in outside.
Marcy Roth is “Fredrik’s work wife and indisputable other half in CA,” according to the rep. Naturally, she holds the listing.
