Rod Stewart’s mansion in one of LA’s most exclusive neighborhoods is on the market.
Stewart’s 3-acre North Beverly Park estate is just as flamboyant as the iconic rock star. Listed at $70 million, the 13-bedroom, 28,500-square-foot property has a distinct yellow exterior punctuated by a Las Vegas-style fountain and an ornate double-door entrance that leads to a jaw-dropping grand foyer.
There are two sitting rooms on the main floor filled with Old World treasures and featuring intricate moldings. A gourmet kitchen sits next to the tearoom; there is a den with fireplaces and loggias, a wine room, a 20-seat dining room, a wood-paneled library, an exquisite bar and a green speakeasy that’s perfect for a nightcap.
The grand double staircase leads to the private quarters, including the primary bedroom suite with dual bathrooms – one pink, one green. There are extra-large closets to hold the rock ‘n’ roller’s huge shoe collection.
The rest of the property includes a magnificent pool nestled by well-manicured grounds with city and canyon views, a 4,500-square foot guesthouse and a soccer field (Stewart, a huge soccer fan, also played well into his 60s).
Stewart originally acquired the vacant lot in 1991 for approximately $12 million and then hired architect-to-the-stars Richard Landry to build the home. Current and former neighbors in the gated neighborhood include Adele, Denzel Washington and Magic Johnson.
One of music’s biggest stars, Sir Rod Stewart has entertained audiences throughout the world with his trademark voice and charismatic stage presence for more than 50 years. Classic hits include “Maggie May,” “Tonight’s the Night” and “Forever Young.” The 78-year-old continues to perform. He is currently on a European tour and his Las Vegas residency will continue later this year.
The property is listed by Michelle Oliver from Douglas Elliman. For more information and other listings, visit TopTenRealEstateDeals.com.
