Romneys Get OK to Raze and Rebuild in La Jolla

SAN DIEGO -- Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his wife passed another hurdle Friday in their plans to tear down their 1936 beachfront home in San Diego's affluent La Jolla community and build an 11,000-square-foot mansion in its place. The California Coastal Commission voted 7-4 on Friday to allow the city-approved permit for the project, ruling that it did not pose a significant issue under the California Coastal Act, said the panel's legislative liaison Sarah Christie.
The Romneys bought the 3,000-square-foot home in 2008 for $12 million. A former neighbor, Anthony Ciani, had challenged the city permit, saying it was granted because the Romneys exaggerated the size of the lot by claiming the beach in front. The commission ruled the Romneys do own that portion of beach. The commission also disagreed with Ciani that the mansion will be out of character with the surrounding upscale community. The commission's staff noted that the home has been altered throughout the years.
The Romneys have submitted a plan for a 29-foot tall residence with attached four-car garage. Romneys' attorney, Matthew Peterson, told the Los Angeles Times, the couple would probably break ground on the project in six months, and that construction would take between 14 and 16 months.
Romney sold a $5 million Deer Valley vacation house in 2009 before launching a presidential bid. His main residence has been in La Jolla and he owns a condominium in Belmont, Mass. The family has long owned a summer resort home in New Hampshire, and recently purchased two adjoining houses with horse barns in a Salt Lake City suburb.

Zuckerberg Buys 4 Homes to Change His Privacy Setting

Zuckerberg Buys 4 Homes to Change His Privacy Setting
Filed under: Buying, Celebrity Homes, Investing
Zillow
By Erika Riggs
It's not uncommon for celebrities to buy the properties next to their homes to ensure privacy, but usually when they do this, the neighboring homes are already on the market. But when you're Mark Zuckerberg and worth $19 billion, you can usually find a price that your neighbors would be willing to sell for. According to property records, the Facebook CEO recently spent $30 million to buy four of his neighbors' homes.
AP
Zuckerberg isn't taking over the properties, however. According to the San Jose Mercury News, the 29-year-old tech titan wants to be able to control how the properties surrounding his home (pictured above and below) are marketed and who they are sold to. He first began buying the homes in December 2012 after learning of a developer's plans to capitalize on Zuckerberg's residence in the area. "The developer was going to build a huge house and market the property as being next door to Mark Zuckerberg," a source told the Mercury News.
Rather than risk a media firestorm, Zuckerberg spent the better part of the year buying three homes behind him and one next door. He is leasing the homes back to the former homeowners. The latest sale closed just this week, the Silicon Valley Business Journal reported.
Silicon Valley real estate doesn't ever come cheap: The median home value in Palo Alto is $1.788 million (up 21.1 percent year-over-year), and in Zuckerberg's neighborhood of Crescent Park,the median home value is even higher at $3.062 million (up 23.7 percent year-over-year). However, Zuckerberg spent far more than the estimated value of many of his neighbors' residences.
According to Santa Clara County property records, one homeowner sold to Zuckerberg for $14 million. The home in question is just 2,600 square feet -- half the size of Zuckerberg's residence -- and valued at $3.171 million. By comparison, Zuckerberg paid $7 million for his 5,000-square-foot home in May 2011.
The price tag isn't all that surprising, says Silicon Valley real estate agent Eric Boyenga of Intero Real Estate. He confirms that Palo Alto homes are always priced high, especially larger parcels.
"Larger parcels go at a premium," he said. "It's really supply and demand and how few of these parcels there are. The owners don't want to let them go at just any price."
Zuckerberg's home currently is a smaller lot, and although he is purchasing the surrounding homes as a privacy investment, down the road, he may be able to expand his lot line -- and that in a limited market like Silicon Valley, is well worth $30 million.
"I think people look at it like oh that's crazy, but for Zuckerberg to get to those parcels, to actually own them, it's worth it," said Boyenga.
Zuckerberg also owns a home in San Francisco.
