Reality TV super-diva Kim Kardashian West
and 21-time Grammy winning rapper, fashion designer and entrepreneur
Kanye “Yeezy” West sold their customized Bel Air mansion in a hugely publicized,
off-market deal valued at $17.8 million.
The wildly popular is
sometimes polemical couple purchased the property in early 2013 for $9
million and spent the next two years and a considerable fortune on a
down-the-studs, spare-no-expense renovation that transformed an
opulently appointed faux-Tuscan villa into rigorously pared down
contemporary with severely minimalist interiors awash in a sophisticated
and monochromatic palette of greys.
The approximately 9,000-square-foot
residence, inside the guarded gates of the Bel Air Crest development
and next door to a similarly sized Mediterranean mansion comedian Kathy
Griffin picked up last year for $10.5 million,
has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms while the back of the house opens
to stone patios, a broad lawn and an open-air cabana alongside a newly
repositioned swimming pool and over-sized spa with panoramic canyon
overlook.
The buyer was identified by the property gossips at Mansion Global
as Marina Acton, a somewhat under-the-rader Ukrainian entrepreneur and
philanthropist who’s based the Bay Area but wants to spend more time in
Los Angeles to jumpstart a singing career. So the story goes, she was
looking for a house in which she could install a recording studio and
Kim K. herself toured Acton through the property.
