Sue Gross, the ex-wife of PIMCO co-founder Bill Gross, is closing out 2024 in a big way.

Her home at 984 North Alpine Drive sold on Monday for $33 million, nabbing a price per square foot in Beverly Hills of $5,024, according to the MLS.

That marks a record on a price per square foot basis, according to listing agent and Carolwood Estates CEO Drew Fenton. It pushed the more than 6,500-square-foot home into the slot for third priciest on-market deal in Beverly Hills this year, based on Zillow records.

The mystery buyer for Alpine Drive was represented by The Agency’s Nick Sandler and Bennett Hirsch.  

It didn’t take long for Gross to find a buyer for the gated home, which touts a stone motor court, 12-foot ceilings, dining room set off with a glass enclosure, service kitchen and separate parking for staff. The property hit the market in September, with a $35 million ask.

Gross paid $20 million for the home in 2018 before it underwent extensive renovations. She tapped Stonehurst Group’s Justin Krzyston as contractor on the multi-year project.

984 North Alpine is the second home on the street Gross has sold in about as many years. She found a buyer for 960 North Alpine Drive in 2022, which sold for $23.3 million. Gross bought the property in 2017, paying $35 million for the home from sellers Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi in an off-market purchase.

The 984 Alpine Drive deal marks another feather in the cap of Fenton, whose name is synonymous with some of the market’s priciest on- and off-market trades.  

Fenton represented the buyer in Beverly Hills’ priciest on-market listing this year, based on Zillow records. That deal was for the more than 20,000-square-foot estate at 1006 North Roxbury Drive, which sold for $37.1 million in June. Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California’s Kirby Gillon and Bryce Lowe were the listing agents.

Beverly Hills’ second priciest trade in 2024, which sold earlier this month for $35 million, was also listed by Fenton and located at 619 North Arden Drive. The buyer was represented by Beverly Hills Estates founders Branden and Rayni Williams.
