      Elon Musk Vowed to ‘Own No House.’ Now He’s Reportedly Sold His $32 Million San Francisco Home.

      by

      Elon Musk seems to be making good on his promise to “own no house.”

      Last year, the SpaceX CEO tweeted out that he would sell all of his real estate in an effort to offload “almost all physical possessions.” By the end of the year, he had ditched four of his Bel Air residences for a combined $62 million. Now Musk is reportedly on the cusp of parting with the last piece of property in his portfolio: A San Francisco–area mansion that was last listed for $32 million.

      Musk initially listed the 16,000-square-foot home last year for $35 million, a number that would net a significant profit, as he originally paid $23.3 million for the place in 2017, according to property records. It’s been on and off the market in the months following his initial announcement to ditch all owned assets.

      The historic residence was originally built circa 1912; it was designed by architecture firm Bliss & Faville. It’s since been renovated to suit contemporary standards—the grand ballroom, dining room and kitchens were all revamped.

      It’s a seven-bed, seven-bath parcel altogether, sitting on a spacious, 47-acre lot. In the dining area there’s a “hidden” cocktail room that’s accessible via a retractable wall of library shelves. Other perks include wine and whiskey cellars in the basement, as well as a separate space dedicated to flower arranging. The primary suite, meanwhile, has its own fireplace, two walk-in closets and two full baths—one with a free-standing tub. Outside there’s a pool and a pavilion for entertaining, plus a separate three-car garage.

      At the moment, the property is pending a contingent offer, which means that Musk has accepted a buyer’s initial proposal, according to the New York Post. All to say there’s a chance the deal could still fall through, in which case the billionaire’s last big piece of real estate would still be up for grabs.

      So where is Musk living now? He tweeted in June that he’s currently residing at a rental worth approximately $50,000 in Boca Chica, near SpaceX’s campus. Talk about living below your means.

      Inside Penn Badgley’s New $1.8 Million Brooklyn Apartment

      by

      Not only is Penn Badgley’s serial killer character Joe making a change on the home front in season three of the Netflix thriller series “You,” moving from Los Angeles to an upscale Bay Area suburb with his wife Love and their newborn son Forty, but the actor’s also got himself a new house in real life. Per records, Badgley and his doula/musician wife Domino Kirke have doled out just above $1.8 million—exactly $100,000 over the asking price—for an apartment in Brooklyn’s family-friendly, albeit pricey, Park Slope neighborhood.

      Tucked away on the fifth floor of a circa-1936 building designed by architect Martyn N. Weinstein and often referred to as the “Art-Deco Building”—just a short jaunt away from the 526-acre Prospect Park, and popular 7th Avenue shopping and dining district—Badgley’s new flat is described in marketing materials as a “gracefully proportioned gem,” and includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms. There are attractive parquet floors throughout, plus numerous windows offering up treetop views from different vantage points.

      A spacious foyer flows under an archway and into a combo dining/living room flooded with natural light. Other features include a windowed gallery-style kitchen sporting updated stainless appliances and quartzite stone countertops, plus a modestly sized primary bedroom outfitted with a duo of closets and a modernized ensuite bath. There also are two additional bedrooms, including one with a built-in wall unit that’s currently used as an office/study.
      The star’s rare corner unit also comes with $2,364 in monthly maintenance fees, which allows for amenities like a 24-hour doorman, an elevator attendant, a couple of landscaped courtyards and a children’s playroom that can also be reserved for special events.

      Badgley, 34, first achieved recognition for playing Phillip Chancellor IV on the soap opera “The Young and the Restless” in the early 2000s. He went on to appear in the comedy films “John Tucker Must Die” and “Drive-Thru,” but his breakout role was as Dan Humphrey in The CW teen drama “Gossip Girl,” for which he received six Teen Choice Award nominations. In addition to acting, Badgley performs as lead singer for the Brooklyn-based indie pop band Mothxr.

      The listing was held by Michael Petrosino and Janice Cimberg of Brown Harris Stevens. Check out more images below.

      KISS It Goodbye: Gene Simmons Lists His Contemporary Las Vegas Home for $15 Million

      by

      Earlier this year, KISS rocker Gene Simmons bet big on Las Vegas and dropped $10.8 million on a home there. Now he’s cashing out.

      The musician and his family spent very little time at the luxe digs, according to The Wall Street Journal, because the weather in Sin City was too warm for their liking. So the 11,000-square-foot home is up for grabs once again—yours if you’ve got a spare $15 million.

      It’s a sprawling mansion located in Ascaya, a tony community close to the buzzy Vegas Strip. Visitors enter via the private courtyard and walk through the “floating” pathway, which sits atop a koi pond. Spending time inside isn’t too different from lounging out-of-doors, as many of the living areas have massive glass walls that merge interior and exterior lifestyles.

      The home has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, so there’s certainly room for another family to move in here. Naturally, since it’s in such a big party town, there’s entertaining space aplenty too. Downstairs there’s an 11-seat theater, a bar area and a 1,200-gallon saltwater aquarium. The infinity pool outside is another great perk for those who want to bring guests around.

      One of the listing’s most unexpected aspects is its garden. Simmons bought another, smaller piece of land to add on to the nearly-one-acre parcel and quickly had 130 trees added to the area. This all happened over the course of two days, so the next owner won’t have to fuss over landscaping.

      Simmons has made quite a few real-estate moves this year. He sold his family home in Benedict Canyon in Los Angeles for $16 million after first asking for $22 million in October and then relisting it at $25 million in April. The rocker also just closed on a different residence in the City of Angels: a contemporary build in Beverly Hills that was last listed with Compass agent Tomer Fridman for $11.5 million.

      Simmons isn’t leaving Vegas forever: KISS is returning for a 12-show residency this December, which will run through February. Ironically, it’s touring that prevented the singer from putting down roots in his Sin City digs in the first place.
      The home is co-listed with Evangelina Duke-Petroni and Ivan Sher of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Nevada Properties. Check out more photos below:
