It may not be his father’s lavish Malibu estate overlooking the Pacific, but this Los Angeles property still boasts some breathtaking water views! After more than 20 years, filmmaker Breck Eisner—the eldest son of former Disney chairman and CEO Michael Eisner—is ready to part with his long-time Los Angeles home, which is perched high above the scenic Stone Canyon Reservoir, and is now listed for $14 million.
This asking price is several million dollars more than what Eisner and his wife, Georgia Irwin, paid for the Bel Air property back in 1993. During their ownership, the couple—he known for directing the 2005 film Sahara and she also a producer and director—undertook an extensive remodel in collaboration with renowned L.A. designer Michael Palladino, drawing inspiration from their honeymoon travels in Bali and Thailand.
“They envisioned an organic, open sanctuary with a direct connection to nature,” says Melissa Alt, who, along with David Mossler of Douglas Elliman, is handling the listing on Scenario Lane.
Set on 1.2 acres across six parcels, the estate features a striking four-bedroom, three-bath main residence described as a “contemporary California take on traditional New England saltbox forms.” There’s also a detached two-story workspace known as “The Cube,” built of glass, steel, and concrete, which previously served as a studio for Eisner’s production company.
Originally constructed in the early 1980s, the primary dwelling, with its stained-pine and zinc roof, is accessed via a lengthy gated driveway and introduced by a boulder-lined stone staircase leading to a glass front door. Inside, a spacious great room with pocketing doors opens to a trellis-covered deck with sweeping canyon and reservoir views. The adjacent kitchen features German teak cabinetry, Jura limestone countertops, an expansive island, and top-tier appliances from Gaggenau, Miele, and Sub-Zero, along with a breakfast nook.
Upstairs, a playroom is surrounded by three bedrooms, while the self-contained primary suite offers a built-in bed, private balcony, operable skylights, a ceiling-mounted retractable projection screen, two bespoke dressing rooms, and a luxurious bath with dual limestone vanities and a soaking tub. The lower level includes a gym with access to an outdoor shower, a family room that opens to a 60-foot lap pool and a spa tub, and a subterranean den/office with a window into the pool.
The landscaped grounds, designed by Pamela Burton, include a pathway leading to the multi-purpose workspace, which features its own living area, kitchenette, bath, sleeping loft, and terrace. Additional outdoor amenities include a gas fire pit surrounded by native plants and cultivated gardens, a children’s play area, and a carport with solar panels, EV charging stations, and space for up to seven vehicles.
