      Inside the $5 Million Apartment of New York Artists Joel Shapiro and Ellen Phelan

      by

      When you think of great New York artists, few names loom larger than the late Joel Shapiro. The celebrated sculptor, whose angular, gravity-defying figures are icons of modern art, spent his life exploring form, balance, and the spaces in between. Now, just months after his passing at 83, the Manhattan home he shared with his painter wife, Ellen Phelan, has hit the market for $4.75 million. Eileen Angelo and Max Collins of Sotheby’s International Realty hold the listing.

      The duplex, tucked inside a 1907 building on East 67th Street in Lenox Hill, is every bit as striking as you might expect from a couple so steeped in art and architecture. The couple purchased the apartment in the early 2000s and immediately reimagined it from the ground up. Their renovation—done in the ’90s but still timeless—introduced beveled glass casement doors, brass hardware, and a sweeping staircase that feels almost like one of Shapiro’s own pieces brought to life.

      Elsewhere on the main floor is a south-facing library with a fireplace, a dedicated home office, and a corner guest bedroom with a private bath. The entire second floor has been transformed into a grand primary suite that’s complete with a mezzanine that overlooks the living room, a bedroom with a fireplace, a separate sitting/dressing room, two walk-in closets, a large bathroom, and a spacious laundry room.

      Shapiro, born in Queens in 1941, remained fiercely loyal to New York City throughout his career, maintaining a studio in Long Island City even as his work appeared in museums and public spaces around the world. (His largest piece stands outside the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.) Phelan, an acclaimed painter, often explored themes of domesticity and place in her own work, which is included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum.

      The primary suite spans the entire second floor.

      The Italian Renaissance-style building, designed by architect Charles A. Platt while at the firm of Rossiter and Wright, has long been a haven for creative minds. Over the decades, it’s housed everyone from a Rockefeller heir to design legends Massimo and Lella Vignelli, who created New York’s iconic subway map. For Shapiro and Phelan, it offered both proximity to the city’s cultural heart and a private, light-filled refuge above it all.

      Their creative life, however, wasn’t confined to Manhattan. The couple also owned a lakeside estate in Westport, New York. Another work of art in its own right, the Prairie-style property, known as Kenjockety, sits on the shore of Lake Champlain and was their retreat from city life. There, amid 1,400 feet of waterfront and gardens designed by landscape architect Dan Kiley, they restored a 1910 home into a serene, art-filled sanctuary. That property is also currently on the market—first listed this summer for $5.49 million, now asking $4.8 million.

      Rolling Loud CEO Matt Zingler Is Selling His Splashy Miami Beach Compound for $19 Million

      by

      Matt Zingler isn’t just moving beats—he’s moving real estate. The cofounder and CEO of Rolling Loud, a.k.a. the world’s biggest hip-hop festival, just listed his waterfront compound in Miami Beach for $18.9 million, and it’s every bit as extra as you’d expect.

      Perched on the exclusive Biscayne Point, the estate spans two lots and offers 150 feet of open bay frontage, sweeping water views, and the kind of privacy that makes celebrities and moguls swoon. Zingler started building this Miami dream nearly 10 years ago, first snagging one lot for $1.85 million in 2016, then adding a second in 2020 for $2.195 million. Today, it’s a half-acre playground that pairs modern architecture with serious showmanship.

      Parisian-style paneling and custom millwork accent the dramatic, double-height interiors.

      Step inside, and the drama is immediate. A double-height foyer greets you with motorized Baccarat-inspired chandeliers that feel straight out of a five-star hotel. Parisian-style paneling, custom millwork, and soaring ceilings transport you to the City of Light, while the expansive windows beyond spotlight the surrounding waterways. A little further in, the marble kitchen flows into a salon with a marble media wall and fireplace. To top it off, literally, the cantilevered primary suite floats above the bay like a luxury yacht, offering owners a dressing room, breakfast bar, and a green onyx bath.

      And then there’s the closet. Not just any closet: a $250,000, bank-vault-style, bulletproof-glass safe room. “The owner drew inspiration from some of the top hotels in the world that he would frequently visit,” listing agent Dina Goldentayer of Douglas Elliman told the South Florida Digest.

      The marble kitchen opens to a main living area anchored by a marble media wall and fireplace.

      Outside, the spectacle continues. An infinity-edge lap pool melts into Biscayne Bay, a sundeck and covered lounges offer every option for entertaining, and there’s even room for a padel court. The secondary residence, a former home built in 1950, now serves as a guest house or wellness pavilion with its own pool and summer kitchen.

      Zingler, now in his thirties and heavily tattooed, lives like a modern rock star, which isn’t far from the reality of his life online. Since founding Rolling Loud with college friend Tariq Cherif in 2015, he has turned the Miami-based festival into a global phenomenon, staging events in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, London, Japan, China, Mexico, Australia, and Croatia. Travis Scott, A$AP Rocky, Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar—you name it, they’ve hit the stage at Rolling Loud. Who knows, they may have congregated at a certain Miami Beach pad, too.

      1950s Box-Office Star William Holden’s Former Palm Springs Home Lists for $11 Million

      by

      William Holden passed away in 1981 at age 63, but the popular star’s legacy lives on at this Palm Springs estate he called home for over a decade, not to mention a 40-year career that saw him snag a 1954 Oscar for his role as a cynical prisoner of war-turned-hero in Stalag 17 and then go on to earn two more nods for Sunset Boulevard and Network.

      Stylishly restored and revamped in recent years, Holden’s former Coachella Valley oasis is now on the market in the Deepwell Estates neighborhood for a speck under $10 million. Aaron Leider of The Agency holds the listing.

      The minimalist living room is anchored by an original raised-hearth fireplace.

      Completed in the mid-1950s by master builder Joe Pawling for wealthy Illinois philanthropists and socialites George and Marcia Barrett, Holden occupied the digs from 1966 to 1977. Hitchcock actress Tippi Hedren—Melanie Griffith’s mother—later lived there during the 1990s. Last sold in 2017 for $3.4 million, the restored and modernized spread was designated as a Class 1 Historic Site by the city of Palm Springs in 2018.

      Resting amid four parcels spanning nearly an acre of land with sweeping views of the San Jacinto Mountains, the sprawling post-and-beam home offers five bedrooms and six baths in roughly 4,400 square feet across a U-shaped single-level floor plan. Highlights include a wood-beamed living room sporting the original freestanding fireplace, plus pivoting glass doors spilling out to a terrace. An adjacent dining area connects to a kitchen outfitted with sleek white cabinetry, a central island, stainless appliances, a breakfast nook, and access to a barbecue area.

      The updated kitchen opens to a patio sporting a built-in barbecue.

      Beyond a family room, the sequestered primary suite comes with a walk-in closet and a bath flaunting dual vanities and a large glass-encased shower for two. Like most spaces in the attractive abode, the bedrooms spill out to the park-like grounds, which are showcased by a 55-foot-by-21-foot pool surrounded by a grassy lawn and sundeck, along with a separate spa and a marble fire pit.

      In the 1950s and ’60s, Deepwell Estates, one of Palm Springs’ oldest neighborhoods, counted an impressive roster of Hollywood residents, such as Eva Gabor, Loretta Young, Elizabeth Taylor, Jerry Lewis, and Carmen Miranda.

      Mark Wahlberg Just Dropped $37 Million on a Lavish South Florida Estate

      by

      As fall sets in and cooler temps prevail, the snowbird set is getting ready to head south for the winter. And this season, they’ll have a new celeb in their midst: Mark Wahlberg, who just snapped up an opulent $37 million mansion in South Florida.

      The Aldo Stark–designed Palazzo di Lago hit the market back in April for $45 million in Delray Beach’s tony Stone Creek Ranch enclave, a gated community sometimes referred to as the town’s “Billionaires Row.” Spanning a whopping 26,000 square feet, the gargantuan pad has seven bedrooms, 10 full bathrooms, and a suite of amenities suited for A-list stars. Senada Adžem at Douglas Elliman held the listing; Wahlberg was represented by Michael Costello at Compass.

      The chef’s kitchen is all Italian gray marble and walnut cabinetry.

      Daniel Petroni

      Wahlberg and his wife, Rhea Durham, purchased the estate fully furnished, a decision that enables them to settle in seamlessly ahead of the Palm Beach social season getting into full swing. The grand foyer is decked out in lacquered wood and stone, while the chef’s kitchen is all walnut and Italian gray marble. In the primary suite, the floors are inlaid with mother-of-pearl, and there’s a hidden safe room for stashing valuables and in case of emergencies. Other impressive perks include a plush home theater, a cigar room with an advanced air purification system, and an auto gallery for displaying your car collection. Outside, Wahlberg and his family can splash around in the saltwater lagoon pool, enjoy a nighttime match on the lighted tennis court, or play a life-size game of chess on the oversize board.

      Palazzo di Lago is the first residence in Florida for the Wahlbergs, who have lived primarily in Las Vegas since about 2022 and also maintain a two-acre spread in Idaho. Prior to Las Vegas, the family had long lived in Beverly Hills. In 2001, they scooped up a $5 million estate, extensively upgraded it, and sold it in 2013 for almost $10.3 million—it’s currently back up for sale at $21.8 million. The Wahlbergs moved from there into a massive chateau-inspired megamansion in the ultra-exclusive Beverly Park neighborhood that they had custom built on a six-acre parcel purchased back in 2009 for $8.3 million. They sold the estate to Paris Hilton earlier this year for $63 million.

      You can play pool or sidle up to the bar in the club room.

      Daniel Petroni

      Stone Creek Ranch, about 11 miles inland from the Atlantic Ocean, has quietly become a discreet haven for ultra-high-net-worth individuals, thanks in part to its privacy and security. Hedge fund manager Steven Cohen, owner of the New York Mets, dropped $21.6 million on a 21,000-square-foot home there a few years ago; another showpiece home, one inspired by Ferrari, is now available at $50.5 million; and a couple of homes are set to hit the market soon with price tags of about $75 million and $100 million, respectively.

      Christine McVie’s London Penthouse Sells for $9 Million, Just 12 Weeks After Listing

      by

      Late musician Christine McVie’s London penthouse only hit the market in spring, but it has already found a new owner. The Fleetwood Mac songwriter and vocalist bought the three-bedroom pad in 2015 after rejoining the band and selling her Kent estate. A young European couple now holds the keys, paying $9.26 million—$360,000 over asking price—to fulfill their real estate dreams.

      The refurbished duplex sprawls across the top two floors of a stucco townhouse in central London’s wealthy Belgravia neighborhood. It was brought to market in March, with Beauchamp Estates listing it for $8.9 million. It went into contract just three months later, listing agent Yahya Swallem says. The property attracted several bidding parties, but the new owners clinched the deal by offering to pay full price, as reported by the New York Post. The home’s connection to rock ‘n’ roll royalty was obviously a massive draw.

      The double reception room features a marble fireplace across the penthouse.

      McVie initially stepped into the spotlight as a member of the band Chicken Shack. She went on to join the globally revered rock band that is Fleetwood Mac in 1970, two years after marrying bassist John McVie. In addition to being a singer and keyboardist for the group, she also wrote classics like “Don’t Stop” and “Songbird,” among others.  

      She left the band in 1988, almost 30 years later, to enjoy semi-retirement in a Grade II-listed manor house in the English countryside. After reappearing with Fleetwood Mac on stage at London’s O2 arena in 2013, she rejoined them for a world tour. That meant spending more time in England’s capital, so she bought a penthouse there in 2015. She used it up until she died in 2022 at the age of 79.

      The kitchen is one of Christine’s personal touches to the home.

      Overlooking Eaton Place, the sky-high oasis offers the privacy and luxury that a rock legend requires. McVie herself established very elegant foundations, opting for herringbone flooring, marble fireplaces, and shaker-style cabinets in the kitchen. The interiors have also benefited from a refresh by U.K.-based interior designer Simon Buhl Davis. Highlights include a double reception room with soaring 9-foot-tall ceilings, three huge sash windows, and a wood-burning fireplace, along with a bespoke library, a 10-seat dining room, a star-worthy primary suite, and a rooftop garden that offers al fresco dining space and sweeping city views.

      McVie’s posh digs may be off the market, but nearby, a newly built four-story townhouse also listed this year for $17.8 million. Still up grabs, the double-fronted abode includes interiors by Xenia, plus a private garden and rooftop terrace.

      The Beverly Hills Estate Where Twitch Star Kai Cenat Hosts His Livestream Lists for $195 Million

      by

      A famously over-the-top estate in Beverly Hills is back. Palazzo di Amore, a 25-acre spread above Coldwater Canyon owned by billionaire investor Jeff Greene, just hit the market once again, this time for a cool $195 million. Yes, that Palazzo di Amore, the same opulent megamansion where Twitch superstar Kai Cenat has been livestreaming with a revolving door of A-list guests since September.

      The estate has been on and off the market for more than a decade, and every few seasons, it reappears like a Hollywood reboot, with the same star power but a slightly different story. The current price tag makes it one of the most expensive homes for sale in the country.

      Greene, who now spends most of his time in Palm Beach, first listed the property back in 2014 for the same $195 million figure. At the time, it was the priciest home in the U.S. Despite an avalanche of publicity, it did not entice a buyer at that high price and was relisted in 2017 for a substantially discounted $129 million. It also did not sell at the lower price and later became one of L.A.’s most exclusive rentals, reportedly fetching $425,000 a year; Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is among those who’ve leased the fabled estate.

      The ballroom features gilt trimwork, inlaid parquet floors, and a massive bowl-shaped chandelier.

      Chris Paul Thompson

      And what do you get for the elephantine asking price? For starters, you get more space than most would know what to do with. Along with its 25 acres of land, the main residence clocks in at around 53,000 square feet. A vast entertainment complex adds another 15,000 square feet. Highlights include a vast ballroom with a stage, a 50-seat movie theater, a bowling alley, a Turkish-style spa, and a private disco with a rotating dance floor. A vineyard that produces its own Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese under the Beverly Hills Vineyards label is in addition to the swimming pool, reflecting pools, manicured gardens, and tennis court.

      Greene bought the property in 2007 after reading about it in the L.A. Times. Originally commissioned by Saudi royalty, the residence and its grounds were incomplete. “There were no bedrooms, no pool, no driveways,” he told The New York Post. “It was just dirt roads and a shell of a house. We went in and finished it… It was a gargantuan project that we spent years and years building.” He poured an additional $25 million into completing it.

      Among its many sumptuous perks is the lavishly embellished Turkish-style spa.

      Chris Paul Thompson

      And then came the Kai Cenat era. The 23-year-old Twitch streamer moved in for a monthlong broadcast, inviting Mariah Carey, Ed Sheeran, Kim Kardashian, and LeBron James to hang out and break the internet. All that online attention seems to have inspired Greene’s latest relisting.

      Erwin Nicholas of Mr. Real Estate, who’s co-listing the home with Patrick Michaels of LA Estate Brokerage, says Cenat’s livestreams gave the property a fresh kind of visibility. The Gen Z entertainer has a history of turning listings into viral events—he even streamed from Tony Parker’s former Texas mansion in collaboration with Nicholas to help market it. “People haven’t understood how powerful live-streaming is as a marketing tool,” he told the publication. “Everyone has definitely doubted it. It’s supposed to be so exclusive. But if it’s on the MLS, if it’s public, let’s be really public.” 

      Of course, even with all that buzz, a home of this magnitude and style only appeals to a tiny pool of potential buyers. Only in L.A., folks, only in L.A.

      Jerry Bruckheimer’s Former Home in the Hollywood Hills Can Now Be Yours for $10 Million

      by

      A Los Angeles residence that was once home to Jerry Bruckheimer has popped up for sale in the Hollywood Hills. Dubbed the Ajioka House after its original owner, Dr. Richard Ajioka, the 1960s digs designed by noted architects Conrad Buff and Donald Hensman are now on the market for a dash under $10 million. Weston Littlefield and Alex Howe of the Aaron Kirman Group at Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California share the listing.

      Occupied by the mega-producer of blockbuster hits from Top Gun to the Pirates of the Caribbean until the mid-1980s, when he sold it for $510,000, the chalet-like spread went on to transfer in 2008 for $2.5 million to menswear designer and tech entrepreneur Derek Mattison. He undertook a major restoration and remodel in collaboration with the L.A.–based design studio Commune that later garnered a Cooper Hewitt National Design Award. It was last sold to Nichols Canyon LLC in 2020 for $6.75 million.

      Hidden behind a high wall and secured gates in the Nichols Canyon area, the hillside property includes a main home and several detached structures spread across nearly an acre of land laced with pepper trees, garden pathways, and a couple of custom ceramic water installations by artist Stan Bitters. A combined total of four bedrooms and five baths are spread across 4,200 square feet, all of it dressed inside and out with rustic reclaimed oak.

      Spanning two stories, the primary dwelling is introduced via a soaring entry foyer displaying large windows and a massive matchstick chandelier. Exposed-beam ceilings, polished concrete floors, and vast expanses of glass run throughout the post-and-beam pad, which is highlighted by a double-height living room anchored by an eye-catching brick and mirror-paneled fireplace.

       The backyard holds a pool, bar and barbecue setup, and fire pit conversation area.

      A separate den/media room is topped with a meditation deck, while a Boffi kitchen is outfitted with a 24-foot stainless and walnut island, Miele appliances, and access to a terrace. A floating staircase leads to an upstairs primary suite, which sports a sky-lit nook with integrated seating, a walk-in closet, and a snazzily tiled bath with dual vanities, a deep soaking tub, and a glass-encased shower.

      Elsewhere is a one-bedroom, one-bath guest suite, plus a design studio/office and a wellness room with a sauna and Himalayan salt wall. Topping it all off are the lushly landscaped grounds, which are showcased by a pool and a spillover spa alongside a sundeck, a barbecue and bar setup, and a fire pit conversation area. A garage and an accompanying motor court can also accommodate up to eight vehicles.

      Inside Bad Bunny’s Budding $17 Million Property Portfolio

      by

      Few artists have reshaped the sound and style of a generation quite like Bad Bunny. The Puerto Rican hitmaker—born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio—has transformed Latin music into a global force, blending reggaetón, trap, and pop with an effortless cool that has made him one of the defining figures of modern culture. Along the way, he’s earned three Grammys, 11 Latin Grammys, and a reputation as a creative polymath who moves just as confidently between music, film, fashion, and business.

      His live performances have become cultural phenomena in their own right. In 2022, his twin tours—El Último Tour del Mundo and the World’s Hottest Tour—collectively pulled in an unprecedented $435 million, making him the year’s highest-grossing touring artist worldwide. His Most Wanted Tour in 2024 added another $211 million, while this year’s 30-day No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí residency at San Juan’s Coliseo de Puerto Rico generated nearly $250 million for the island. That run will be followed by his upcoming Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, which kicks off on November 21 in the Dominican Republic.

      Meanwhile, Bad Bunny’s star has expanded well beyond the stage. His acting roles in Bullet Train, Happy Gilmore 2, and SNL showcased a cinematic charisma that’s fueling his crossover into Hollywood, while his influence in fashion has made him a fixture at the Met Gala and in front rows from Paris to Milan. A global ambassador for Gucci and the face of campaigns for Jacquemus, Adidas, and Calvin Klein, he’s become a sartorial force known for merging traditional Puerto Rican flair with boundary-pushing high fashion. Even his collaborations—like his limited-edition Crocs collection—have sold out within minutes, a testament to his cultural sway.

      Offstage, the millionaire rapper indulges in equally enviable passions. A devoted car enthusiast, his garage reportedly includes a Bugatti Chiron, Rolls-Royce Dawn, and Mercedes G63 AMG, among other head-turning machines. His real estate holdings are similarly impressive. He owns two homes in Los Angeles—including one that used to belong to Ariana Grande—and has previously rented a glass-wrapped penthouse in Manhattan for $150,000 a month. Though unconfirmed, he’s also rumored to own property in his native Puerto Rico.

      As he prepares to headline the 2026 Apple Music Super Bowl LX halftime show in Santa Clara, Bad Bunny stands not just as the world’s biggest Latin artist but as a cultural powerhouse redefining what it means to live like a global icon.
