Via Dirt.com: Built by noted developer Evan Gaskin, the sprawling manor house has three full floors in approximately 13,000 square feet of living space. There’s a substantial motorcourt, a four-car garage, a state-of-the-art Atmos home theater, giant kitchen with top-of-the-line everything, plus a massive backyard pool with inset spa and an unusually large cabana offering a full wet bar and outdoor kitchen. The property had been privately marketed for sale, asking $14 million, by Craig Knizek, James Harris and David Parnes of The Agency.

The 1.6-acre lot is one of the most private in all of Encino, tucked behind two oversized gates and totally invisible from the street. The wedding cake-like estate additionally sits atop layers of hulking retaining walls, imbuing the house and surrounding grounds with over-the-treetops views of the valley and local skyscrapers.
