Sean “Diddy” Combs is shaking up the real estate world, putting his massive Beverly Hills mansion on the market for an eye-popping $61.5 million. This isn’t just any mansion—it’s the same one that found itself in the headlines earlier this year after a raid by Homeland Security. Sitting on the prestigious South Mapleton Drive in Holmby Hills, the 17,000-square-foot estate offers a peek into the world of luxury living, with ten bedrooms, a theater that seats 35, and even an underground water tunnel connecting the pool to a cave. Talk about over-the-top amenities.
Diddy originally snagged this property for $39 million in 2014, right after the famed builder Nile Niami completed it. The mansion, described as having a “European-style” design, spreads across 1.5 acres of prime Beverly Hills real estate. Outside, it’s just as impressive, with formal gardens, a basketball court, and a spacious loggia set up for al fresco dining. If that’s not enough, there’s a separate two-story guest house and an on-site spa building with a beauty salon. Yes, Diddy’s home has a beauty salon—because why not?
Legal Drama Casts a Shadow Over the Sale
The listing for the house went live on Sunday, and Kurt Rappaport, known as the “realtor to the stars,” is handling the sale. The Los Angeles Times once gave him that flashy title, and with a property like this under his wing, it’s clear why he’s the go-to for A-listers. Kurt couldn’t be reached for comment, but the news has already caused a buzz in the real estate world. The house’s ultra-luxury status and its connection to Diddy’s high-profile legal drama only add fuel to the fire.
Earlier this year, the mansion was raided as part of a Homeland Security investigation into illegal trafficking. The raid followed several lawsuits filed against Diddy, with accusations ranging from indecent assault to violation. Although he’s denied all the allegations, they’ve cast a shadow over his public persona, and legal battles continue to mount. Federal authorities have not pressed charges, but more lawsuits have surfaced since the raid, keeping the media spotlight on Diddy.
Diddy’s Star-Studded Real Estate Portfolio
Diddy owns several other jaw-dropping properties, including a $35 million estate on Miami’s Star Island. Fun fact: he bought this one from Gloria and Emilio Estefan in 2021, adding it to his already impressive real estate portfolio. His Beverly Hills mansion, however, sits in one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the country, alongside homes belonging to Sean Parker, Kylie Jenner, and even the Playboy Mansion.
With its extravagant features and celebrity pedigree, this Beverly Hills home is destined to be a major talking point, just like everything else Sean “Diddy” Combs touches.
