Villa Speranza is a newly completed estate in Brentwood, offering five bedrooms and six bathrooms across 5,675 square feet. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, the home balances modern amenities with timeless luxury in this prestigious Westside location. The property is listed for $10,498,000 with Smith & Berg Property Group at Compass.
Designed by Jae Omar in collaboration with JVE Development, the residence reflects Omar’s reputation for integrating narrative-driven architecture with rich textures and high-end materials. Known for his work with clients such as Zedd, Joe Jonas & Sophie Turner, and Sean McVay, Omar’s latest project is rooted in Mediterranean influences and quality craftsmanship, with every element emphasizing permanence and storytelling through design.
The entry is defined by monumental archways and hand-applied plaster walls, creating a sculptural sequence that moves throughout the home. A floating wood staircase, suspended in natural light, serves as the visual centerpiece and functions as a striking design feature. Throughout the home, softly curved doorways create a fluid, contemporary atmosphere.
The kitchen is outfitted with dual islands featuring artisan stonework and custom cabinetry, paired with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances. Material integrity remains central to the space’s design, with earthy finishes and carefully selected surfaces. The kitchen is positioned to open directly to the adjacent communal areas while maintaining a grounded, distinct character.
A dedicated breakfast nook is framed by arched windows and oriented toward the garden, maximizing natural light. Adjacent to the dining space, a built-in wet bar adds to the home’s entertaining capacity, incorporating gently lit niches that match the kitchen’s calming palette. Together, these areas extend the home’s indoor gathering spaces with practical, cohesive design.
The primary suite features vaulted ceilings, a stone fireplace, and a boutique-style dressing room with custom built-ins. The serene bathroom offers a dual shower and soaking tub, set against stone and glass finishes. The connected private terrace adds an intimate outdoor space with views of the landscaped grounds.
The outdoor area is directly connected to the interior through expansive glass doors. Complete with a pool, spa, fire pit, and built-in outdoor kitchen, the backyard is designed to maximize outdoor living. Intentional landscaping and carefully shaped hedges create a completely private atmosphere. An al fresco dining patio is ideal for entertaining.
Modern amenities include a full home automation system, surround sound, a home theater, a dedicated office, and five en suite bedrooms. A gated cobblestone driveway leads to a two-car garage, reinforcing both security and a sense of arrival. The property combines technical functionality with carefully considered design, positioned in one of Brentwood’s most established residential enclaves.
