Google exec Eric Schmidt just dropped $22M on a huge estate in L.A.'s coveted Holmby Hills neighborhood, right next door to the Playboy Mansion and just up the road from Ellen DeGeneres's Brody House. This isn't the first time Schmidt's purchases have brought him into contact with the one-woman real estate tycoon, as he bought one of her Montecito estates back in 2007. [Curbed LA]
