Controlling a $15M Bel Air Mansion
By Jason Knott
A 12,000-square-foot masterpiece in Bel Air, Calif. features automated waterfalls, whole-house music, climate control, lighting control, 180-plus lighting loads and much more.

Some houses are just jinxed. That might be the case with this Westco Smart Homes project: a 12,000-square-foot modern-style masterpiece that sits in a perfect location in wealthy Bel Air, Calif.

In the past six years, the house, which was originally designed as an Italian villa, has suffered an indoor fire, a lightning strike and an earthquake. Through all of that, the house has changed ownership, changed contractors and changed developers.



But that’s just the sort of challenge that Westco Smart Homes owner Jack Goldberg likes.

Westco took over the job in 2010 from another integrator who had completed the automation and A/V systems “to about 80 percent.” The $14.9 million home has six bedrooms and nine baths, automated waterfalls, whole-house music, climate control, lighting control, 47 Vantage Bticino Axolute keypads, four in-wall touchpanels (one 10-inch and three 6.5-inch), two 7-inch wireless tablets, seven enclosures with 22 modules and 180-plus lighting loads.

The Vantage InFusion control system also manages the access control to the front gate and is linked to a single CCTV driveway camera. In the backyard, the system drives a Jandy pool and spa controller and four 2,000-watt outdoor heaters.
