Exploring the Extravagance of Drake’s Expensive YOLO Mansion, Where He and Colleagues Party All Night

Rapper, singer, and actor Drake from Canada just sold his Los Angeles property, YOLO, for $12 million.

 

Among the many amenities this about 12,500 square foot house offers for living the hip hop star lifestyle in celebrity-studded Hidden Hills are a mechanical buTM and a grotto pool with a swim-up bar.

The “you only live once” catchphrase was included in the Beverly Hills Estates listing by Branden and Rayni Williams, which stated that the “YOLO estate is a jaw-dropping resort-style home tucked away in the ultra-exclusive, guard-gated enclave of Hidden Hills.” Perched on a private cul-de-sac with horse trails on three sides, this English Tudor is the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern conveniences.

PropertyShark records show that in 2012, the house was purchased by 35-year-old Drake, whose full name is Aubrey Drake Graham, for $7.7 million. The singer of “Wait for U,” “Toosie Slide,” and “Way 2 Sexy” first promoted the mansion in March for $14.8 million, according to listing paperwork. It went under contract at the beginning of May.

 

The buyer could not be identified by Mansion Global since the sale’s data are still unavailable.

The main house features six fireplaces, a recording studio and lounge, a home theatre, a wine cellar, and a tasting room, all listed in the sale. It’s accessible by a stone bridge. Additionally, there is a nearly 2,000 square foot master bedroom suite with a bar area and seating, as well as a bathroom with two vanities and marble-enclosed soaking tubs that can be accessed through wood-paneled bookshelves.

In addition to the swim-up bar, the listing highlighted the pool area’s many televisions, waterfalls, and 80-foot rock waterslide. A tennis/basketball court, stables, and a sand volleyball court are also present.
