Playboy Mansion For Sale 200 Million

[$money$]

The Playboy Mansion -- the backdrop of some of the wildest parties ever thrown in L.A. -- is for sale ... TMZ has learned.
The 6 acre Holmby Hills estate, built in 1927, will be listed sometime within the next month. Our real estate sources say the owner -- Playboy Enterprises -- is looking to get somewhere north of $200 million.
Real estate sources with knowledge of the area say the owners are dreaming when it comes to price. They say the reality is ... the house is a tear-down and the real value is the acreage and that a comparable lot sold recently in the area for $60 mil, but the sources say because of its history the Mansion could go for anywhere between $80 mil and $90 mil.
Our sources say they believe the people at Playboy Enterprises will come back down to reality and list the estate at a realistic number.
There are several strings attached. We're told whoever buys it will be required to give Hugh Hefner a life estate, meaning he can continue to live in the mansion until he dies.
As for the other string ... we're told prospective buyers can tour the property but one area is off limits ... Hef's bedroom.

I'll buy it when I win the powerball tonight.. Gotta keep the place for the bunnies

[Robbie]

Only here in the U.S. would they tear down that place.

Hell, here in Vegas they tear shit down while it's still practically new. lol

Can you imagine some of the huge estates and cathedrals and castles in Europe that are hundreds of years old being torn down?

[xXXtesy10]

another manwin success story?

I think that 200 Million is under-value actually. If I was Hef, I would sell it at $500m, and if no one bought it, too bad.

Even better, I would insist on a contract that says whoever buys it can't tear it down. Can you imagine if Donald Trump were to buy that house? He would turn it into the ugliest thing ever.

Here in Montreal there is some kind of law that prevents old buildings from being taken down. They can only be bought and sold under the condition that they are repaired or built back up in a way that maintains the heritage of the place or area. The Playboy Mansion would deserve the same treatment. At worst, maybe turn it into a museum or something. I hope that whoever ends up owning it keeps it as-is.

Does the price includes the girls ?

yup I was there on one of my b-day's.. Can you imagine how many people have peed in that pool and how many stds have been in the grotto?

I would def have to re-cement the pool and hot tub.

[ITraffic]

heard it smells like stale cum and dirty adult diapers.

[dyna mo]

been there a couple times, the indoors makes the outdoors look pristine. is there any historical significance to the home? i know a lot of homes here in LA are on the historical record and cannot be torn down and in fact have to open their doors to tours and such. i'm a buff of local architecture and been on quite a few of the tours.

Was thinking along these same lines as well. It's one of the most famous/notorious homes in the world.

I agree, its a good looking place, probably needs a bunch of updating inside

Perfect place for my retirement

In 2010, Hugh Hefner's former girlfriend Izabella St. James wrote in her memoir Bunny Tales that the house was in need of renovation: "Everything in the Mansion felt old and stale, and Archie the house dog would regularly relieve himself on the hallway curtains, adding a powerful whiff of urine to the general scent of decay."

at the very least new curtains.

It's the American way. We value nothing here.

We are classless people with a plastic disposable culture.

We simply suck ass really.

Oh come on. If this country had every log cabin still with an address and a fucking muddy trail to get there, you'd be whining about that too. Fact is, nor every structure needs to be saved, just because it's old. If there's historical significance or artistic, cultural value, then yes too. The question here is does the playboy mansion a cultural treasure? Possibly. It's not a frank Lloyd wright. The declaration of Independence wasn't signed there. But a lot of chicks got naked there, and aaronm proposed to his wife there.

So
..

[BIGTYMER]

Must be hurting.. Just non-stop poor business decisions. No nudes. Sold cable channel. Mansion next. What's left? The logo.

I agree with you.. While this "playboy mansion" means a lot to us pornographers this place is really a run down dump if it's true they let the family dog piss everywhere.. People outside of men that grew up stealing their dads playboys and us are the only ones that think this is a historic place..

If I had won the powerball and really was interested in buying it I wouldn't tear it down but I would have to gut it to make it nice again.. It's not worth over $80- $90 million and that is to someone that respects Playboy. You don't just make a house worth $200 million cause it was a huge party house.. Frat houses have huge parties all the time and they devalue the places. Restored in pristine shape I could maybe see that figure.

Say XYZ Million for the place and property, and the rest for cultural and historical (especially to LA) significance. $500M.

[freecartoonporn]

nope just hef till he dies. That's another thing that is crazy. Who would pay 200 mil and not be able to see or enter the master suite till hef passes.. Why not just wait till he passes and then sell it?

[romeo22]

200M maybe including the bunnies

you're kidding right?

200 million is crazy already, let alone 500.

[SBJ]

wtf is this a surfer forum now? bunnies? really, if you have 200 mil to buy this place you don't need girls to come with the place

[freecartoonporn]

To be fair, those we build with better materials. Look closely at most of the US houses from the same period, and its drywall and CHEAP wooden walls with fake bricks. Its build to last 20-50 years max.

But if you go to the Southern stats (old slave mansions) you will find wooden houses are a few hundred years old as well, that could be in great shape. The houses buils in the last part of the colonial period in those areas were great, because they had shitloads of Money.


My wife and I went to Florida two years ago, and spend two days looking at these kind of houses, because they are a great display of craftsmanship

The Playboy Mansion may be an old construction unit masonry structure.

Unless the masonry has been reinforced that mansion is used under a grandfathered-in certificate of occupancy-- it doesn’t meet current earthquake building code. If that is the case; you need a building permit to do anything AND a new certificate of occupancy to close the permit. It might cost $10's of millions to rehab that structure into compliance with the current building code.

Complicated deal to be sure ...

Old people know who Hef was and what Playboy was and they are the people with money to pay for this. I can see a billionaire picking it up and trying to keep the dream alive for a while.

I cannot imagine how much cash he has blown over the years on bunnies and parties. It staggers the brain.

I agree. Especially since if you talk to people who have visited it lately, they say it needs major repairs. The house is old and wasn't well cared for over the years.

why would you bump a thread from 2016 when we all know the story?

The Playboy Mansion is not currently for sale. It was sold in 2016 to Daren Metropoulos. Metropoulos purchased the property for $100 million and intended to renovate and restore it. He has since been living next door to the mansion.

While the mansion was previously listed for sale with a price tag of $200 million, the final sale price was $100 million. As part of the sale agreement, Hugh Hefner, the founder of Playboy, was allowed to remain living in the mansion until his death, which occurred in 2017.
