At just 29 years old, British actor Damson Idris might not be a household 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞 in Hollywood yet, but his relatively brief journey in showbiz has already brought him enough success to purchase a newly renovated home in the upscale neighborhood winding through the foothills above L.A.’s Studio City. The price tag? A cool $3.85 million.
Idris, known for co-starring with Kate Beckinsale in the 2018 coming-of-age film “Farming” and for his role in the Netflix science fiction action film “Outside the Wire,” has truly found his stride in the FX crime drama “Snowfall.” This starring role has not only propelled him into the limelight but also earned him a producer credit for the upcoming fifth season of the series set to premiere next year.
The two-story, five-bedroom, and 4.5-bathroom abode, constructed in 1964, underwent significant renovations recently. Described as a “stunning Montecito modern residence,” the home boasts pale European oak floorboards, designer finishes, and a comprehensive home automation system controlling lighting, sound, and security.
The slightly over 4,700-square-foot open floor plan welcomes visitors with a center hall entry flanked by formal living and dining rooms. An oversized butler’s pantry connects the latter to a chic eat-in kitchen adorned with striking white and boldly veined black and white marble (or marble-like) countertops, all complemented by gold-toned fixtures on pristine Shaker-style cabinetry. A stretch of floor-to-ceiling windows seamlessly connects the family room to the outdoors.
Among the four guest bedrooms, two come with private bathrooms, while the remaining two share a generously sized Jack-and-Jill-style bath. The master bedroom offers a serene mountain view, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom for ultimate relaxation.
The backyard, although not sprawling, offers enviable privacy and low-maintenance landscaping. Carved into the steep custom-planted slope behind the house, it features extensive concrete terracing, a built-in grill accompanied by benches, a patch of evergreen Astroturf, and a trapezoidal plunge pool and spa.
As Damson Idris continues his journey in the entertainment world, his taste in real estate mirrors his ascent: stylish, refined, and a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. His investment in this exquisite abode is a testament to his rising star status and his ability to secure a place in both Hollywood and the real estate realm.
