The Weeknd’s Bel Air home, which starred as Jocelyn’s (Lily-Rose Depp) mansion in the brief TV series, offered us something fresh to obsess over even if the controversial HBO series was canceled after just one season.
But even without its screen time in The Idol, the Starboy singer’s primary residence is one for the history books.
The R&B singer paid an incredible $70 million for the opulent Bel-Air property back in 2021, making it one of the most costly transactions in Los Angeles that year. As a result, he is now listed among the celebrities whose homes are most expensive in recent memory. And we’re here to give you a brief tour of this amazing residence owned by celebrities.
It no longer has the antiquated looks of the 2000s and instead exudes modern elegance with global-sourced modern finishes.
The mansion has a long driveway and two gates at the entry. The secretive and reclusive artist has the isolation he needs because the house is surrounded on all sides by a landscape of lush trees and greenery, and there are no neighbors in the area.
In addition to an indoor movie theater, a gym, a tennis court, an indoor movie theater, an outdoor infinity pool with waterfalls, a spa, and a Turkish-inspired hammam, there’s also a music studio.
The house contains nine bedrooms in total. There is also plenty of space for entertaining visitors, with a poolside lounging area with a fire pit and an outdoor bar by the waterfall.
The formal living room perfectly encapsulates the modern extravagance of the home, featuring glossy orange walls, a black marble fireplace, and dramatic coffered ceilings with mirror panels.
The enormous kitchen, which has two marble waterfall-edge islands, is another notable feature of the opulent house. The stunning islands have custom-made copper cabinets with leather belt handles that give the room a touch of rustic charm.
The Weeknd’s house is almost entirely furnished with floor to ceiling glass doors, which let in an abundance of natural light and create a tranquil indoor-outdoor atmosphere.
