The house has a name: “Opus.” It sits in the Trousdale Estates section of Beverly Hills, on a cul-de-sac that realtors refer to as “billionaire’s elbow.” Built from the ground up and completed about two years ago, “Opus” looks like a sleek modernist palace with touches of Versailles — 20,000 square feet of glass, marble and bronze accents.

It’s one of several so-called “giga-mansions” for sale in L.A. County at a discount after sitting on the market for months or even years. “When this house was first finished,” said Nile Niami, the project’s developer, “it was a different world in the marketplace.”
