Patreon Founder Sam Yam Buys Pacific Palisades Mansion

By MAGNOLIA LAFLEUR | Reporter

Owner of membership platform Patreon, Sam Yam recently purchased a Pacific Palisades mansion for $14 million.

The contemporary mansion yields six bedrooms on a .31 acre lot and was developed by Ramtin Ray Nosrati, founder of Huntington Estate Properties.

“Astute real estate watchers may recall it was Nosrati who last year sold a wild Brentwood mega-compound for $44 million to hedge fund mogul-turned-crypto investor Jeffrey Feinberg,” according to Dirt. “That place came complete with all the billionaire necessities—a beauty salon, two swimming pools, a rooftop ‘cannabis garden’ and a movie theater with a fiber optic ceiling.”

Yam’s home is complete with walls of glass, offering ocean views from every room. The luxury residence features a climate-controlled wine cellar, gym and movie theater. The living room has an open floor plan with high ceilings, fleetwood glass doors, a “floating” staircase. The living room also faces a terrace with an ocean view.

One of the kitchen’s highlights is its walk-in refrigerator.

“The kitchen is open to both sumptuous living areas and an outdoor terrace overlooking the aqua sea,” according to Dirt.

There are six bedrooms in the house, all of them complete with ensuite full baths.

The primary suite has a long linear fireplace, and a giant wall of glass that opens to the patio.

The bedroom also has a master bath with two sinks, a steam shower and large tub.

The walk-in closet “is really a boutique store unto itself,” according to Dirt, complete with display areas and a fitting/dressing room.

The backyard has a “negative-edge” swimming pool with a waterfall feature and an area for dining, a firepit and an outdoor exercise machine.

The mansion was pre-sold to Yam last year with only artistic renderings in the listing.

The listing was held by Sally Forster Jones and Shauna Walters, and Ben Bacal and Yoori Park from Revel Real Estate represented the buyer.
