F1 Heiress Petra Ecclestone Looks to Sell L.A. Mansion for $42 Million

Petra Ecclestone, Formula One heiress and fashion designer, has listed her designer-done Brentwood Park estate for $42 million.

Ecclestone and her husband, real estate agent Sam Palmer, quietly acquired the newly built mansion in 2023 for $30.5 million in an off-market deal, then gave the home a sweeping makeover that blended her refined style with modern California elegance.

Now fully reimagined, the nearly 13,500-square-foot estate is being offered as one of the most stylish homes just a few steps from the infamous Riviera Country Club.

Tour The Luxury Home

In an Instagram post from Luxury Listings and real estate agent Blair Chang, you can see the results of Petra and Sam’s home makeover, from the amenity-packed backyard with a pool, trampoline, cold plunge, and soccer pitch to the expansive blue eye artwork that watches you as you walk up the stairs.

Blair Chang offered another look at the home from an Instagram post from his real estate brokerage, The Agency.

Some of our favorite spots in the home featured in this post include the light-filled dining room, where doors open to the side yard and natural light reflects off the glass table, and the minimalist office, which shares that same radiant energy, creating an uplifting space to work.

Wildfires Or Lifestyle?

After quietly acquiring the newly built home in 2023 for $30.5 million, the couple transformed it with a renovation that combined Ecclestone’s refined taste with modern California elegance.

However, when the January 2025 wildfires swept through the area, destroying the schools their children attended and reshaping the local landscape, the family temporarily relocated to London, prompting a reassessment of where and how they want to live.

As they search for a new school and weigh their next chapter, the listing is about lifestyle and family needs, and their ongoing passion for luxury real estate. For a couple who admit they can never sit still for long, this move marks the close of one chapter and the beginning of yet another high-end project.
