The Lowdown: Had the sellers plumped for in-focus listing photos, might they have gotten their full asking price? Eh, probably not. LA's biggest residential sale last week is this "near new stately traditional" just off Chautauqua. Per the listing, the house has a master suite, "plus 5 additional over sized secondary bedrooms, 3 fantastic family rooms, chef's dream kitchen, large formal entertainment rooms, wine cellar, professionally designed state of the art home theater," pool, and outdoor living room. That's a lot of rooms. Move in and you'd never have to run into your pesky relatives!

The Lowdown: This grand 1929 estate got snapped up pretty quick, considering the hefty pricetag. The house has been remodeled since it was last on the market in 2010, "but maintains the integrity of its extraordinary architectural features including niches, alcoves, leaded windows, tile floors and balconies." That round library is pretty sweet.
