- Veteran venture capitalist Marc Andreessen and his wife, Laura, are selling their Bay Area mansion.
- The home hit the market last year for over $33 million but now has a listing price of $29.5 million.
- Take a look inside.
After more than a year on the market, Marc Andreessen’s Atherton mansion has gotten a price cut.
Marc Andreessen, the founder of the storied venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, and his wife Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen, listed their 12,185-square-foot home in Atherton, California, for $33,375,000 last spring.
The mansion is now listed at $29.5 million. The home’s listing agents did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
It’s unclear where the Andreessens are headed next. The family declined a previous request for comment. Over the past several years, they’ve accumulated more than $250 million in property in Malibu, California, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Here’s a closer look inside the Andreessen’s home for sale:
The home was built in 1995.
It sits on a 1.55-acre lot that’s “barely discernible” from the street, according to Compass, the realty firm listing the property. It’s also located across from the Menlo Circus Club, a private recreational club that first opened in the 1920s.
The home features a neutral color palette with American cherry and light oak floors.
Aside from the main home, there’s also a one-bedroom guest house and a detached office and studio.
The rooms have “extensive” custom built-ins designed to display art.
There are five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and three half-bathrooms on the property.
The interior is light and airy.
Recessed lighting, skylights, and a light color palette bolster the atmosphere.
There is ample space for entertaining, relaxing, or pondering the state of the startup ecosystem.
There are also seven fireplaces on the property, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The home features two kitchens.
They come in handy for catering and private chefs, Compass noted.
The home has several concealed and visible screens.
“A hallmark of this residence is a commitment to media needs,” the listing notes.
There’s also ample space to host and entertain guests.
A “defining signature of this property is its capability to host significant personal, professional, & philanthropic events,” the listing says. Andreessen and Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen — an educator, author, and philanthropist who founded the Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen Foundation — may have used their home often for hosting.
The home also has a nice gym.
It’s equipped with mirrors, free weights, and stationary bikes.
And the grounds themselves are picturesque.
The estate itself features “manicured lawns, a covered terrace and a pergola, fountains and a reflecting pool,” according to The Wall Street Journal.
