    As someone who was lucky enough to live in a house on the beach in this area for a few months one thing you got 100% right is the ocean noise. It’s not waves crashing like on a beach, they slap into the foundation which makes a boom noise that is unsettling like a plane hitting the sound barrier. The worst part is it’s completely random. It gets old very very quickly.

      Veteran of the US Navy & the sound of the waves on the ship drove me insane. & Like this house you 'feel it' even if you don't hear it. Missing is a video one of Malibu's storms with larger, crashing waves. Are you still going to sit on the lower deck drink wine & watch the ocean at high tide? Would you feel comfortable sitting in that lower room at night drinking wine, with a storm raging in the blackness just outside the door? & I'm betting crashing waves & wind you'll sea spray running down the glass. I want to live near the water, not IN the water. This house is a hell no from me.

      I lived for a few months in house on the same beach. Every night I would stare up blankly imagining the waves hitting the building just hard enough to break the glass and take me out to sea to drown. My wife loved it though.

    Hi Arvin,
    We lived on the water in Malibu 8 years ago and HATED IT! You forgot to mention all the salt from the ocean water leaves a film on all the glass surfaces of doors or marble counters. We had a guy come 3 times a week to clean.
    Also, the salt air corrodes any metal on light fixtures, faucets, heating systems and TV electronics. It was a constant nightmare keeping on top of all the maintenance.
    We lived there for 12 years and I could not wait to move.

      Good point. On yachts the crew have to be scrubbing the decks and cleaning everything constantly. And with all that sea water running right up to and under the home, you're in pretty much the same situation.

    • @perkygrubb
      @perkygrubb 6 місяців тому +62

      My good friend bought a beach house here in Oregon and had the EXACT same problems. He put a TON of money into that thing every year. Not just because of the salt, but the critters that came in all the time and the wear and tear beach atmosphere (wind, water, rain, cold) can do to wood frame homes. Silver lining? He sold it for twice what he bought it for. There’s a sucker around every corner.

    Arvin, I was a nanny at an ocean front home in Laguna Beach. In the time I was there, the owners spent another small fortune on cleaning salt residue off practically everything. By time I left, I had forgotten how quiet the night can be.... with no waves.

    • @Underhills

      That's right. People have this romanticized view on water and forget that it's always generating noise. Either it's oceanfront, right next to an active river or next to a waterfall. And then you have those who thinks having waterfalls in the garden "lagoon" is a fantastic idea, forgetting the constant noise it makes. I bet many of them regret it when they turn it off and then dread turning it back on.

    One factor not yet mentioned is wind. There are no obstructions to slow the wind here. I’ve lived on the water. In that location, there were just two miles of open water in front of the house, and excessive wind sometimes made it very uncomfortable to be outside. I can’t imagine the wind speeds that this house is exposed to. That aggravates the corrosion already mentioned. Corrosion is even a problem where i live now, two blocks away from the ocean. Window frames should not be steel or aluminum.

      You need the pillars for the foundation. It’s built right up against the ocean on a cliff that’s slowly eroding and falling back into the ocean. Most of these houses were built 20+ years ago before people saw how often these cliffs can fall apart. Also most of the bad exteriors is just because you’d rather spend the money on the square footage and the interior than architecture. Most people don’t spend a lot of time looking at the outside of their own house they’d rather have more space inside and better views

It's the minority that live inside social media that blindly believe and follow him, which is why he's so social media focused. Even Jordan Belfort(which isn't saying much) saw right through him during their podcast episode together.

    About the concrete caissons: sea water and (steel) reinforced concrete do not mix well. If these caissons are reinforced concrete, the salt will be absorbed, and corrodes the steel rebar. Steel expands by a factor of 10 when corroded, causing cracking and spalling of the concrete. Think of it as a slow-motion explosion within the concrete. This was probably a factor in the Surfside condo collapse. I’ve also seen same in the foundation of a private home in Miami Beach.

      @@annaqtjoey Here in London those type of homes are sometimes referred to as “ fake “ ie properties that are newer builds but are made to look old or historic . A lot of luxury buyers here would discount that property without looking because of the lack of history or pedigree. The lot is also long & narrow & not particularly wide so is fairly close to neighbouring properties . Perhaps that combination of factors ( along with the mega price ) are counting against it .

    As always, Arvin gives us a marvelous video. For many people, I am sure, this house and property are an example of what the "emperor wears no clothes" tale is all about. Grant (whoever he is-never heard of him) and Enes (who is wonderful) are exuberant over the house and the beach as if each is beautiful, stunning and uniquely magnificent. But the reality for both the house and the beach is that each are so boring and plain as to qualify as ugly. Arvin is so right about the beach, with its noise, the inevitable erosion and the fact that in reality, it is not a beach at all. It is just a place where ocean stops and land abruptly begins. And the house has not one element of warmth, comfort or inspiration in it. The outside as well as the inside of the house are downright depressing. The emperor of this house and its location is in reality a naked and repellant disaster of both space and building for $40,000,000 or so. (Ol' Grant wants $80,000,000). The Fire House out back looks better than Grant's place. But, as Arvin explains, what is beautiful to one will not be beautiful to all. Most importantly for those of us who are Arvin's You Tube fans, his videos are consistently and wonderfully great fun.

    Another wonderful video. I’m not a fan of this home and I agree with Arvin about the location not being great. For people that are not from the area and don’t know how Pacific Coast Highway is in this area-let me explain to you. PCH is one of two things--it’s easier jam packed with traffic to the point where it’s beyond frustrating-or when it’s open and traffic is flowing-people tend to fly down it in this area. This home is basically tucked between the constant pounding of the ocean and a road that is either a traffic nightmare or a dangerous race track for super cars. By the way-I literally was taking a sip of water and spit it out when Arvin said “what did you expect to see in this ocean front home-jungle??: LMAO

    The only way to limit the sound of the waves is to install wavebreakers, huge funny-shaped concrete blocks into the water far from the shore, they will break the waves and you won't get a lot of that sound, but everyone would need to approve it all along the coastline involved. They on,y reak the waves but also help corals and the underwater bio-economy grow. Also, you don't only wanna do that because of the sound that bothers you, but also for security in the event of storms or tsunamis. It should be a requirement for beach properties.❤

    You should've critiqued the 2 videos Grant just did with DjVlad. The house was finished. They went through it thoroughly. There was one striking comment he said. He said that his wife didn't love the house. After hearing you explain the issue with the water, street, and fire station noise as well as the lack of privacy, I could see why she didn't like it. He also said that he would sell it. I think that he too does not like the house.

    I once heard that the reason so many houses are painted white when on sale is a couple reasons, I have been told. White paint is easier to cover than a color, like a plain canvas is white. Second, you can paint a color, but the odds are good that someone won't like it. Some people like warm colors, it is energizing and warm. Some people like cool colors, it is relaxing and soothing. The prospective buyer needs to be able to vision their stuff in this house, hence the plain white.

Here there are red line, blue line, green belt etc. on which no constructions are allowed. Also with hurricanes on the rise in US, it's not good idea to have property on the sea itself. This location is fine for a hotel where for a change we can live for couple of days but certainly not good as a holiday home.

How about adding some friggin color to the house or at least the trim inside. Years ago I had a painting business and when I got a call on a home like that and they said “white, off white, ecru” I said see ya and would not do the job because homes need COLOR plain and simple. Finally, Grant was a POS when I knew him back before he made it big, and he still is!

    Here's the thing though, Grant was living in a house apparently a mere 3 doors away, (which is also LITERALLY across from the Los Angeles Fire Dept. Station #70) from this house, so.... How in the hell DIDN'T he Know about the fire department Firehouse right out front of the place?!! He had to have seen it sitting right there on the Pacific Coast Hwy at the corner of Carbon Canyon Rd. at the lights! There was no WAY to NOT SEE IT! (And btw., almost all of those homes along that strip look fuglier than sin itself, tbh).
    EDIT: And on that last part of the video, where you were describing the "Total Tear-down" property with the "easement access-way", that is indeed a fugly looking property, but its also a cleverly set-up property in that it, like Grants house, is a double-wide property, but this one is NOT built right out to the water, but instead is built closer to the road so that it has that natural break between itself and the water breaking on the stones So you don't hear or feel the surf pounding into your home all the frigging time! And that "easement" is actually still part of that particular "tear-down" house's property, where the beach is accessible day and night, no matter what time of the day it is. It may indeed be fugly, but its also pretty damned clever in the way everything is set up.

Poor old Enes has to keep his innermost thoughts tactfully to himself. Put it this way: 'Old Money' is going to be up there on the hills, far removed from the beachfront and all its tiresome noise. 'Old Money' prefers not to advertise itself, while quietly enjoying the view. It's why one rarely, if ever, sees the property owners in these mega-mansion videos.
