Just three months after Julie Wainwright listed her stunningly modern Beverly Hills residence for nearly $12 million, the founder and former CEO of The RealReal has already sold the property. Records indicate that the home, designed by renowned architect Steve Hermann, changed hands for a reduced price of $10.7 million—still about a million dollars more than she purchased it for in 2021 from Tony & Guy co-founder Bruno Mascolo. Compass real estate agent and Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles star Josh Flagg represented both parties in the deal, calling it “hands down the best deal in Trousdale Estates.”

Completed in 2009 and meticulously tailored to Wainwright’s taste, the gated architectural masterpiece is described in the listing as a “harmonious blend of elevated luxury.” The residence features an inviting courtyard with terrazzo fountains and chic, 4,500-square-foot interiors, with expansive glass walls that blur the line between indoor and outdoor living while offering sweeping city views from almost every room. Highlights include a spacious living area with a wall of shelves displaying an array of striking decor, and a sleek linear fireplace topped with a TV. The polished Poliform kitchen boasts high-gloss floating cabinetry, dual ovens, and an eat-in peninsula, while the formal dining area opens on two sides to the outdoors. Five en suite bedrooms include a sprawling primary suite with a stone fireplace, a glass-walled dressing room, and a luxurious bath featuring an Antonio Lupi soaking tub.

Outside, the half-acre-plus grounds offer an infinity pool and spa surrounded by a vast flat lawn, a teakwood deck, and built-in benches perfect for relaxation and entertaining. The home also includes a mirror-lined gym, an attached two-car garage, and smart home technology throughout, with automated window treatments, a cutting-edge Control4 system, and a server room. Wainwright, a pioneering figure in tech, launched the online video platform Reel.com in 1997 and later became the CEO of Pets.com, which famously collapsed under $300 million in debt after going public in 2000. After founding The RealReal in 2011 and stepping down as CEO in 2022, the company remains one of the largest online marketplaces for authenticated luxury goods, with over 27 million members and 19 retail locations nationwide.
