Inside the $2.995M Sale That Just Set a West Hollywood Record

Lucía Torres · 2026-11-11

Set just moments from Melrose Avenue, The Row on West Knoll has a new distinction: one of its six residences just sold for $2,995,000—the highest price ever paid for a townhome in West Hollywood in 2026. Represented by The Agency’s Paul Lester and Daniel Stevenson, the sale confirms that buyers in the neighborhood are actively seeking architectural, design-forward residences. Developed by Frost/Chaddock Developers, The Row on West Knoll brings interiors by Michael Berman and outdoor spaces by Mike Pyle Landscape. Every detail reflects a level of thoughtfulness and intention that can easily get lost in new developments. ### The Residence That Set the Record 914 West Knoll Drive offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,808 square feet of interior space plus 1,130 square feet of exterior living. Like every home at The Row, it unfolds across multiple levels with sunlit interiors and dramatic double-height ceilings. The space is anchored by refined materials, including engineered oak floors and quartzite countertops. A chef-caliber kitchen features Pedini cabinetry and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and each of the three en suite bedrooms boasts custom closets in a sleek, modern European design. Residents can relax on the private rooftop terrace, finished in Itauba wood and offering 360-degree views of the city. A dedicated cinema room, gated entry, and direct-access garage complete the experience. ### A Cultural Hub The community also gained cultural cachet as the setting for Dialogues on the Knoll, a curated exhibition that turned four adjoining townhomes into a gallery experience. It featured 22 artists, an opening evening hosted by Paul and Daniel, and a panel conversation on how art and architecture intersect. It showed just how well the art-ready layouts at West Knoll live. ### Behind the Record Sale We spoke with Paul and Daniel to get more insight on the features and distinctions that drove this record-setting sale. **What made this residence stand out to buyers, and what ultimately drove it to a record-setting price?** **Daniel:** We had a sophisticated buyer who thoroughly toured the available inventory in both the submarket and surrounding areas. The craftsmanship, execution, and elevated lifestyle ultimately won them over—they didn’t feel anything compared on those fronts. **Paul:** There is no other programming like these residences available in West Hollywood, with main loft living coupled with a townhouse private home feel, intimate settings, and rooftop decks. **What does this sale tell you about what West Hollywood buyers are looking for right now?** **Daniel:** With a plethora of available options, West Hollywood buyers are driven by quality in design and finishes. The buyer has a refined palette and the option to be discriminating. The project also provides privacy for its residents while being walkable to West Hollywood’s biggest attractions—including the newly opened Erewhon and Laurel Supply, along with art galleries, restaurants, and gyms. **Which features of the home resonated most with the buyer, and why?** **Daniel:** The kitchens are certainly a standout feature; the Wolf and Sub-Zero appliance package and Pedini cabinetry elevate this product. Double-height ceilings and oversized outdoor spaces also make for a unique living experience in a condo. **Paul:** The buyers resonated with the townhome’s several levels of living. Residents are able to program one level for both an office and a gym, so they chose the residence for that flexibility as well. > West Hollywood buyers are driven by quality in design and finishes.

It allowed us to showcase the homes as livable galleries, attracting buyers who appreciate art and design. It reinforced The Row’s identity as a cultural destination, not just a residential one. **Paul:** It gave us a unique storytelling angle. Buyers could see themselves living among art, which made the spaces feel more dynamic and inspiring. The series helped position The Row as a community for creatives and tastemakers. ### What This Means for the Market This record-setting sale underscores the demand for well-designed, architecturally significant homes in West Hollywood. As buyers become more discerning, properties that offer exceptional craftsmanship, unique amenities, and a sense of community will continue to stand out. The Row on West Knoll sets a new benchmark for luxury townhome living in the area.
