L.A. Mansion with a TV Wall, a Car Showroom and a Half Basketball Court Sells for $44 Million

[Zorro]

Jeffrey Feinberg, a hedge-fund executive and a longtime basketball fan, has purchased a roughly $44 million newly built Los Angeles estate packed with sports-oriented amenities, according to the home’s developer, Ramtin Ray Nosrati.

Located in Brentwood, the sprawling contemporary property sits on over 1.2 acres and was completed in the spring. It has a string of sports features including a basketball half-court, a “fun den” with a television wall for watching games, a gym, a sports-simulator room, indoor and outdoor pools, a three-hole putting green and a spa, according to the listing.

Featured throughout the home are pictures of basketball stars like LeBron James and the late Kobe Bryant, listing pictures show. The name “Kobe” and “24,” Mr. Bryant’s jersey number, are imprinted on the basketball court’s floor. Before the sale, Mr. Nosrati hosted a party at the property with guests like Magic Johnson.

...

The house originally came with a feature that Mr. Nosrati, the developer, is particularly known for: cannabis. In this case, the property had a rooftop garden with several cannabis plants. Mr. Feinberg said, and the developer confirmed, that he had sent an email to Mr. Nosrati prior to closing stipulating that the cannabis plants be replaced with carrots and cucumbers before the deal was finalized.

I've never tried smoking a carrot or a cucumber before.

2. I would replace the pot with vegetables too

I cannot stand the smell of weed. I lived in an apartment where the landlord had a grow in the basement. My second floor apartment smelled continuously of skunk.

As for the rest of the article, I am disgusted by such excess when so many have nothing.
