Flaws Exposed: Enes Yilmazer's FOREST KNOLL Mansion Tour

  • Welcome to my latest reaction video, where I delve into the $32M property in Hollywood Hills, featured in the Forest Knoll mansion tour by Enes Yilmazer. This luxurious property, listed at $32M and eventually sold for $23.22M, is a prime example of high-end real estate. However, it doesn't quite adhere to the architectural philosophy of "Form follows function."
    In this video, I'll critique the property, highlighting both its good and bad aspects. We'll discuss the design choices, the functionality of the spaces, and whether this property can be considered iconic. I'll examine the criteria for what makes a property truly iconic and see if this Hollywood Hills estate meets those standards.
    Join me as I provide a thorough analysis, referencing the details shown in Enes Yilmazer's mansion tour. From the impressive features to the questionable design decisions, I'll cover it all. Is this property worth its initial $32M listing price, or is its $23.22M sale price more reflective of its true value?
    Don't miss out on this in-depth review of the Forest Knoll property, and make sure to check out other mansion tour videos by Enes Yilmazer. If you enjoy content like this, consider subscribing for more reaction videos and detailed critiques of luxury real estate.

    People might call you negative, but I just feel like your greatest attribute as a RUclipsr is that you’re a TRUTH TELLER who is clearly very very knowledgeable. For some reason, I stopped watching Enes before I found you because I felt like he talked about every property in excessively glowing terms and some of the properties I felt were absolutely dreadful. And for you to add your domain knowledge to TELL THE TRUTH has been a watershed moment and reinforced my belief in my own intuition. Even when you express emotion of disbelief, frustration, and disappointment all adds to the authenticity of your delivery. I hope one day you can help me buy a house.

      Enes says what he says because that's his job. No one who wants to spend that kind of money on a house will rely only on Enes' talk. Both Arvin and Enes make cool movies, each has their own content and sticks to it. Some like it, others don't. It's important to have a distance to it and respect for Enes and Arvin 🙂

      As Arvin says, "form follows function". Gable roofed houses are typically found in cold climates where these roofs help channel snow off the roof. There's no snow in L.A., which is why almost all the roofs you see in these mansions are flat, so the gabled roof has no function. It's just a design idiosyncrasy.

    I'm from Scandinavia and I remember seeing this house on the Enez canal. When I first saw the house, I thought it looked Scandinavian. That thought quickly disappeared as we moved around the house. Personally, I don't know anyone who has concrete walls. The house lacks the warmth and "coziness" that most Scandinavian homes have. I did not like the house at all.

    For me the main entrance hall is so massive and so empty that it makes the sound and reverb extremely unfriendly. It really makes it feel like Enes is rattling around in that huge space with his voice echoing all over the place. If it were me I would try and address that, finding a way to shut that down a bit, or maybe even play into it with some sort of gentle water feature to at least make it feel like a more natural and get rid of that uncanny feeling.
    In fact that whole first floor has the same feeling. It was a relief when they went into the garden. Also, that bar area should be a cosy games area with pool or a ping-pong table .

    Architects who design spaces with windows solely at either end of a building, and there are many such architects, do not understand how that makes people feel in those spaces. Those architects have not figured out that doing something very simple, like adding a third wall of windows, will help make people feel like they are in a home rather than a wind tunnel. Those architects have clearly spent no time looking at homes and then trying to figure out what makes a home cozy and welcoming vs what makes a space feel like a gigantic cave. Those architects are very mediocre and do not create iconic homes.

    You - rightfully - pick apart this ridiculous thing, but ignoring the guy making absurd statements is baffling. As the guy walks into the front courtyard, he calls it 'cozy with lots of natural stone'. It's not cozy whatsoever - it's imposing - it's not human scale - it's commercial/industrial scale. And there isn't any natural stone to be found - it's all white stucco and horribly-cold board formed concrete. The guy repeats the nonsense about being 'cozy' when discussing the horrible fireplace.
    There's nothing cozy about that building - it's just big, empty, tiresomely unimaginative space that's absurdly overpriced.

Most whisky enthusiasts move away from bourbon over time because virgin oak casks are one-dimensional, overpowering, and boring. Also the brands here and usually elsewhere are not top shelf, not worthy of a millionaire. the knob creek, bulleit, and elijah craig here are standard mid-shelf stuff, because i doubt the ec is barrel proof. The highland park scotch (although i cant read the age statement) is actually a better brand than a mccallan or johnnie walker seen most places; which is for people like josh altman who ordered jw blue label on the rocks during an episode just to pretend to look classy because all the marketing ads told him it is. which brings us to glassware, serious whisky drinkers don't use tumblers and ice, and these bars never have tulip shaped whisky glasses, you'd have to use a wine glass. If you're into wine, this is like if they stocked the bar with carlo rossi, barefoot, and franzia. You could say oh it's just staging, but i've seen really expensive bars in hotels and cruise ships that offer the same mixing swill. and at this price point you wouldnt stage the deck with plastic lawn chairs either. -- forgot to add, lots of bars like this one are in direct sunlight, and light exposure deteriorates flavor. the bar should be in a shaded part of the home. this is squarely facing a window, and with mirrors that dont absorb light, but reflect it back at the bottles.

    A bit of the problems could have been avoided easily: No sloping down from the gate, you enter on the upper floor where you've still got more than enough height and get the special roof feeling for a formal space, family room/kitchen and primary, maybe still room for a guest/staff room above the garage. then downstairs you get a central bar/entertainment space opening up to the pool, two bedrooms with views a third bedroom on the side and movie/gym spaces

    Bar room (right volume) becomes the music room, stereo, record player, bucu shelves and rawers for media. Kitchen room (left volume) - redo the kitchen, add real pantry around the back of current kitchen back wall, incl butlers pantry, where couches are current put in statement table and moderne chandelier. Main central volume - add two small closets left and right immediately after the front door to create a foyer, walk through to get the wow.

    - Put a round dining table with a Lazy-Susan (seats more people than a rectangular one) in the first house where the kitchen is (and also enlarge that kitchen and throw out the seating area there as you don't need it)
    - Then a landscaped lounge lounge in the middle house (maybe a deSede Colina or Snake sofa)
    - and finally in the third house where the "bar" is you add a billiards table (with extra covers to turn it into a ping-pong or additional dining table)
    - If pocket doors are not feasible at least the could've thought about huge folding glass doors
    - It's not iconic

    The shape of those three volumes is just lazy design. It's a module repeated three time with the only variation being on the one that elongates towards the entry of the property where it can't be seen. The way that design limits the interior design and the livability of the house is just not worth it. A clear example of an architect who priorizes making an "statement" over the life quality of the people who will actually live in the property

    The structure shape looks like a logo for a home decor mega store. And having gable ends of roofs coming together at flat sections? That’s a disastrous leak waiting to happen. It’s like living inside three plastic house playing pieces from Monopoly. The best thing is the view. For the same money a much better house can be bought in Laguna, with an even better view.

    Question about the AC vents being on the floor. How can you cool a house with ceiling heights that big with AC vents on the floor instead of from the ceiling with good diffusers? Isn't that house just going to be seriously uncomfortable in the LA heat in the summers? Not to even mention the electric bills with the AC always pumping trying to cool it off.

    Iconic, one of the more overused words by realtors along with Mid Century Modern. Definitely distinctive though as you can see in the wide shot of the hill behind, this house sticks out in a good way for me. I also noticed it in the background of another house Enes reviewed so distinctive is more apt imo.

    This tour makes me miss Mikey so much more now, because Mikey was what always grounded these glimpses into world of the ultra-rich. Mikey leant his eyes and senses to these homes and gave the tours the much-needed grounded reaction to a world so far-removed from 99.9% of the population. Without Mikey, Enes's property tours are just extended promotional advertisements for expensive properties.

    I am shocked that Arvin didn't nail them for having to open a door on the island to access an outlet. And why did they waste so much space on just one?
    Is it just me, or do the windows look unusually small and cheap for an expensive house?
    This house is awful in every way, not the least of which is that it feels like three different houses with no cohesion. If a house is going to become a home, it has to create a better sense of unity and togetherness than this.

    Hi Arvin, thanks for your videos and insights, please continue making more, we need our dose of unobtainum :)
    If you pause video on 41s, you can see that there is a big round table in the central volume, and that the seating area is arranged in a different way, also the fake bar seating is different, so probably by better staging you could give more meaning and flow to the spaces....
    also sadly 2 yoga mats, mirror and a spinner is barely something, that can be labeled as a gym.../maybe in a flat/, but still better than storing your fitness machines in a garage before you sell the stuff and calling that a gym :)

    I am confused! Walk-through rooms are usually a reason to knock 20-30% off the price. But every time you see walk-through rooms, you are simply delighted! The "flow" of one space into another is a big problem. Such real estate is not worth millions; it's barely worth a couple of thousand! Maybe you can explain how it turns out that walk-through rooms are a good thing for you? Where does your fear of corridors come from?
