Ariana Grande’s slogan is “I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it,” but when she’s done with “it,” she recycles it. The pop star sold the hillside property for $14 mιllιon this morning, less than a year after she impulsively bought it in Los Angeles’ Bird Streets area. Grande bought the modern home in July 2020 for $13.7 mιllιon.
Jacob Greene and Josh Altman of the Altman Brothers Team at Douglas Elliman represented the $14 mιllιon purchase. Compass listed Aaron Kirman.
Grande’s desire to sell her only recently purchased property shouldn’t surprise real estate watchers. She moved to a smaller, more private Bird Streets home this year. The “hidden” mansion, purchased by the 28-year-old Boca Raton resident for $9 mιllιon, was initially assumed to be a teardown but had been rebuilt into a classy refuge above the Sunset Strip.
Her recently unloaded house was erected in 2018 on speculation by the Woodbridge Group, a Ponzi scheme run by convicted fraudster Robert Shapiro. It lies on a prominent ridge. The 10,000-square-foot multi-level home has four bedrooms and seven bathrooms. From the street, massive metal doors protect an atrium with a glass front entryway.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame views of the L.A. skyline and hills in the expansive living rooms. A Miele kitchen and dual-sided fireplace serve the formal living and dining rooms.
A luxurious primary suite with a stone bathtub and boutique-style dressing area with dramatic backlighting occupies the entire penthouse floor. The basement level features a gym, sauna, wine closet, wet bar, and movie theater. Grande replaced all the home’s Fleetwood glass sliding doors with bulletproof glass for protection.
The enormous mansion lacks a grassy yard due to its high inclination. The home has a large terrace for outdoor gatherings and an L-shaped, infinity-edged pool overlooking the valley below.
Grande and her new realtor husband Dalton Gomez also own a Montecito holiday property. Grande bought it from Ellen DeGeneres last year.
