As of early August, $12.5 million emerged as the sweet spot for record sales on Southern California’s tony Palos Verdes Peninsula. Two properties—a 6,000-square-foot estate in Palos Verdes Estates and a 10-acre hilltop residence in Rolling Hills Estates—sold for the top price in the last six months.
The home was designed to showcase expansive coastal views, even from the entry.

It’s hard to know whether the record will stand for the rest of 2023. Last year, the most expensive home on the Palos Verdes Peninsula sold for $17.1 million while in 2021, the record sale was $16.6 million, property records show.

The most recent sale, a contemporary home at 952 Paseo La Cresta in Palos Verdes Estates, was completed in July. “It was very fast,” says selling agent Suzanne Dyer of Strand Hill Properties. “The buyer was in Dubai on a business trip, and he saw it come up online and fell in love with it. He flew back … and bought it.”
