NBA star Jordan Clarkson made a bold move by selling his rarely used mansion in Sherman Oaks for $7.5 million. The selling price was significantly higher than his initial asking price of $6.8 million and the $5.7 million he paid for the house in late 2020. The new owner of the modern home is DJ and electronic dance music (EDM) producer Nick Miller, known as Illenium, from Denver.
Illenium made his debut in the music industry as a little-known bedroom producer in 2013. Since then, he has achieved great success, receiving “Remix of the Year” at the 2017 Electronic Music Awards for his work on “Say It.” His 2019 album “Ascend” peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard 200, and he has become a prominent figure at music festivals like Coachella and Bonnaroo. He was also recognized on Forbes’ “30 Under 30” list.
The walled and gated mansion was constructed in 2019 in the popular modern farmhouse style, boasting six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and a spacious brick motor court, covering 8,000 square feet. The rustic-chic interiors feature custom woodwork, lighting, and seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces. Notable features include a loft-style living space, a movie theater with a drop-down projector, and an executive office with a glass wall separating it from the “showroom” garage.
The gourmet kitchen is equipped with high-end Wolf and SubZero appliances, a roomy center island with a breakfast bar, and a butler’s pantry. The adjacent family room showcases a soaring fireplace with book-matched quartz slabs and a vaulted ceiling. The formal dining area also includes a transparent, temperature-controlled wine showcase.
The mansion offers two master bedrooms, with the larger one featuring a fireplace, two walk-in closets, a patio, and a luxurious quartz bathroom with two vanities, a double shower, and a steam unit.
The half-acre property boasts stunning flat, grassy grounds with a patio featuring a handcrafted fire pit, an infinity-edged pool and Jacuzzi, a fireside cabana, a built-in BBQ, a putting green, and a sports court.
The listing was handled by Zeev Perez of Keller Williams Realty Encino-Sherman Oaks, and Ken Zietz of Rodeo Realty represented the buyer in the transaction.
