A magnificent ten-bedroom mansion just doors away from the infamous Playboy Mansion has been sold for a mind-numbing £27.3 million.
The Los Angeles property contains a main three-story, six-bedroom house with 10 bathrooms, alongside a separate two-story guesthouse with four bedrooms and three baths. It covers a huge total of 21,000 square feet.
LA real estate investor Saeed Farkhondehpour had some difficulty in selling the property due to its sky-high price, but after around four years and two large price chops, he has finally sold the gigantic estate. It is a Neoclassical-style home in the Holmby Hills neighbourhood, which is also home to the world-famous Playboy Mansion.

The mansion was custom built by Farkhondehpour in 2020, after he first bought the 1.5 acre piece of land for £3.5 million in late 2002. He demolished a 1940s home designed by architect A. Quincy Jones in order to build the new mansion.
