LOS ANGELES _ New York Giants chairman and Hollywood producer Steve Tisch has touched down in the Trousdale area of Beverly Hills, buying a Midcentury home for $10.05 million. The seller was the estate of late music manager Jordan Feldstein.
Set behind fences and gates, the Robert Skinner-designed home is an example of the International style. Strong horizontal lines, bands of steel-framed casement windows and walls of glass are among visually dramatic features of the home, built in 1962. Raised ceilings and an open-plan layout create a sense of light, volume and flow.
Within more than 6,300 square feet of interiors is a two-story great room with a centerpiece fireplace, a loft den/office, a home theater and a chef's kitchen. The master suite _ among the five bedrooms and six bathrooms _ has a sitting room. Outside, the nearly 1-acre property holds a sunken terrace, a fire pit and a swimming pool. Landscaping and palms complete the setting.
Tisch, 69, has scores of credits as a film and television producer, including the Oscar-winning film "Forrest Gump" (1995), "American History X" (1998) and "The Equalizer" (2014). The son of former Giants co-owner Bob Tisch, he was named chairman and executive vice president of the New York franchise in 2005.
Feldstein, brother of actor Jonah Hill, died last year at 40. He was the founder and chief executive of Career Artist Management and represented such talents as Maroon 5 and Robin Thicke.
