Letting Nature In

A Modern Home of Joe Jonas & Sophie Turner

JOE JONAS AND SOPHIE TURNER SELL IN LA & BUY IN MIAMI!

A-Listers Joe Jonas and wife, Sophie Turner, have sold their Encino, California estate, which they turned into one of Southern California’s most glamorous contemporary homes. Taking two years and the magic of celebrity designer Jae Omar, the couple purchased the home in 2019 for $14.1 million and listed it at $16.75 million in June. It recently sold for $15.2 million.

 Located in the Royal Oaks enclave of Encino (one of the favorite celebrity neighborhoods) in Los Angeles, the 15,000-square-foot home has nine bedrooms and eleven baths. Omar applied his skills to highlight the lushness of the landscape, including an ancient oak tree in the center of the property. Other design features that were added include a lap pool with spa, aged-wood design features, various imported stone accents and a custom wine cellar. Open and airy with high ceilings and outdoor views, all rooms are spacious and can host large get-togethers. There is a two-bedroom guest house also used for entertaining with an aquarium, cigar humidor, kegerator, fog machine, disco lights and a DJ station. On the exterior, there is lush turf throughout the grounds with a putting green and an outdoor projector for movie nights.

 The couple already has a new home in Miami’s Bay Point neighborhood, recently purchasing a waterfront home with three bedrooms and 10,416 square feet for $11 million. They have joined other A-Listers Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen, Joshua Kushner and Karlie Kloss, Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, and Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, who have also moved or are soon moving to the Sunshine State.

Joe is one of three brothers who make up the pop rock boy band Jonas Brothers. English actress Sophie gained celebrity status from her role as Sansa Stark in HBO’s Game of Thrones. Carl Gambino of Compass represented the sellers while Ethan Peskowitz and Fred Bernstein of Westside Estate Agency represented the buyers.
