Classic rock icon Rod Stewart is the latest celebrity to put his California estate up for sale, as his $70million North Beverly Park compound with wild amenities hits he market
Stewart, 78, had the property designed for him by famous California architect Richard Landry in the 1990s after he bought the land for just over $12million in 1991 and the enclave has been home base for the English star ever since
The palace-like estate includes patterned marble floors, elaborate wood paneling, crystal chandeliers and intricate moldings
The nine-bedroom main house has a unique yellow exterior with double doors to welcome you inside
This indoor/outdoor space allows for a chance to grill outdoors and in the shade
The loggia overlooks the entire yard space of the property, including a massive pool
The interior features a grand foyer with marble floors, Corinthian columns and ornate mirrors
Unique to the 33,000-square foot property is a sizable soccer field, as Stewart is a huge fan of Scottish giants Celtic and used to play frequently himself
A widescreen theater setting is part of the entertainment aspects of the main house
The biggest features of the estate may be for entertainment purposes – including a three-story guesthouse and two gyms, as well as a pool
Agent Michelle Oliver of Douglas Elliman said that she’s hoping for a buyer who wants a ‘return to maximalism’ and ‘something that looks different and stands out’
The lengthy private driveway includes a motor court and classical fountain
Listing images show a massive closet space, perfect for the buyer who shares Stewart’s penchant for fashion, especially shoes
The lavish bathrooms are largely marble with wood finishes
There is also an entertainment room with a bar, fireplace and French doors leading to an area that overlooks the entire setup
Stewart lives there with long-time wife Penny Lancaster and his two youngest sons, 18-year-old Alistair and 12-year-old Aiden
The marble fountain welcomes guests into the long motor court
It is not clear why Stewart is selling, with Oliver declining to comment, but he could be the latest in an exodus of stars from California
