Lupita Nyong’o and Selema Masekela, both well-known people in their fields, announced their love in public yesterday. This was a happy surprise for everyone, and it ended months of secrecy about their relationship. To mark this happy event, the couple did something else together: they bought a beautiful, multimillion-dollar property in the busy city of Los Angeles.
The fact that Nyong’o and Masekela both wanted a beautiful home in a natural setting and were willing to spend almost $4 million on it shows how much they both value these things. This custom-built house is a haven of modern elegance. It is in the beautiful Topanga Canyon, which is an unincorporated area between the beautiful coastal town of Malibu and the beautiful San Fernando Valley.
The harmonious mix of steel, glass, and cement in the house’s design gives it a modern look, and it also has a lot of great features that help it stay alive on its own. The property shows a commitment to living in a way that is good for the environment by having solar power, backup systems, home automation, and advanced filtration systems. The house is at the end of a quiet one-way street and is hidden behind an elegant steel-gated driveway. It sits on over two acres of lush, wooded land.
When you walk in, the floor-to-ceiling glass walls give you a panoramic view of the ocean, rolling hills, and the beautiful canyon. The living room invites you to relax and think with its cozy fireplace and sliding glass doors that lead to a large balcony. Not to be outdone, the dining room, which has a convenient wet bar, makes for a sophisticated place to have fun.
The gourmet kitchen, adorned with elegant bamboo cabinetry, exquisite quartz countertops, and a spacious eat-in island, is a testament to culinary artistry. Equipped with top-of-the-line Viking, Wolf, and Sub-Zero appliances, it promises to delight even the most discerning chefs and food enthusiasts.
This architectural masterpiece has a master retreat on the top floor. It is a peaceful place with a spa-style bathroom with a luxurious soaking tub and a relaxing jetted steam shower for two. Downstairs, a flexible media/family room with a private entrance is a great place for cozy gatherings and fun. A second wet bar is right next to this space for added convenience, and a bedroom with an attached bathroom that is currently being used as an office offers a quiet place to work or relax.
Stepping outside, one is captivated by the meticulously landscaped grounds that surround the property. An outdoor entertainment area awaits, complete with a comfortable seating space, a serene fountain, a warming fire pit, and a fully equipped kitchen boasting a commercial-grade BBQ. Additionally, a two-car garage and ample parking space for up to 20 vehicles ensure both convenience and security for residents and guests alike.
