Around 15 years ago, Smashbox Cosmetics cofounder Dean Factor—great-grandson of Max “The Father of Makeup” Factor—and his wife, Shannon, set out to build a home from scratch in Sullivan Canyon, a rustic Los Angeles neighborhood bordering Brentwood and Pacific Palisades. Inspired by trips to the San Ysidro Ranch and the former Will Rogers estate, they sought to create an upscale California ranch that felt like it had existed for a century.
The couple worked with architect Cindy Grant and Hanover Construction to incorporate high-caliber wellness amenities and sustainability features, including advanced air and water filtration systems, solar infrastructure, a private well, an infrared sauna, an ozone-treated pool, a gym, and yoga and massage rooms. They also added a cutting-edge Crestron home-automation system, along with security cameras, fire-retardant building materials, fire gel protection, and a backup generator.
