A 5,840-square-foot Los Angeles residence was listed for $4.995 million last week

According to the listing by Mark Rutstein and Charles Black of Compass, the property includes six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and 731 square feet of outdoor space. It’s near Melrose Avenue in Beverly Grove.

According to Mr. Black, “it’s California living at its finest.” “As Fleetwood sliding doors lead from the living room to the veranda, it has a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor space.” It’s also in a popular neighborhood, which was one of Rod’s favorite features…you can walk or drive to all of Melrose’s stores, restaurants, and cafés.”

Rod Roddenberry, “Star Trek” producer, is located in Beverly Grove and is the seller

According to PropertyShark records, Mr. Roddenberry, 47, paid $4.85 million for the property in 2018. His responsibilities as executive producer for several “Star Trek” shows include “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” and “Star Trek: Prodigy.” His father, Gene Roddenberry, created and oversaw production of the original 1960s program.

Three years ago, Mr. Roddenberry and Mr. Rutstein worked together to buy the house.

The basement level was Rod’s favorite when he bought the house, the agent said. While many of the homes in this neighborhood have roof decks, very few also have fully functional lower floors. The nearby pool was also appealing to him.

The house was finished in 2017, and Mr. Roddenberry has been the only owner since then.

In 2017, he purchased a new residence and made numerous improvements to the property

According to Mr. Black, “Rod spent the first year refining and transforming it from a new construction house to his actual residence.” This included installing a Leicht chef’s kitchen with Miele appliances, numerous furnaces, and a built-in coffee maker, as well as automating the entire house.

There are three en-suite bedrooms, including a master bedroom suite with a balcony, fireplace, and Italian dressing area, according to the listing.

Additional features include an office that opens to a garden with a fountain, a lift, a home theater, and a gym or game area with a toilet. Outside, there is also a well-kept garden, an outdoor kitchen, a fire pit, a jacuzzi, and an outdoor shower.
