It might have been Arnold Schwarzenegger who declared “I’ll be back”, but it’s fellow action star Sylvester Stallone that’s bounced back into the property market.
Just last month the Rocky and Rambo star sold his custom 90210 mansion to songstress Adele for a huge US$58 million, which was the most ever paid for a house in the guard-gated Beverly Park community.
According to Dirt, Stallone and his wife, model Jennifer Flavin, have recently splashed about $18.2 million for a Hidden Hills mansion, close to where the Kardashian clan live.
Located in a guarded-gated San Fernando Valley community, the estate spans more than two acres and is set at the end of a private cul-de-sac.
The property features a mansion, a separate guesthouse, a pool house and a horse barn.
Built in 2015, and with interiors from acclaimed designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard, the Hamptons-inspired home has an elegant ambience about it.
Features include a light-filled, central great room with cathedral ceilings dotted with skylights, along with a wall of glass that invites the outdoors inside.
Hardwood floors flow through the dining room, while the stunning chef’s kitchen boasts Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances.
The master bedroom is a romantic retreat, with a designated sitting area, private balcony and an opulent ensuite with a luxurious freestanding bath.
Arguably the home’s most impressive feature are its dual master closets, which are large and grand enough to please the fussiest fashionista.
When it comes to entertaining, Stallone can invite guests to relax in one of the large loggias, which are surrounded by vines, or take a dip in the pool with its inset spa and Baja sunbathing deck.
