LeBron James has demolished his $36.8M mansion, purchased in September 2020, and is now commencing construction on his dream Beverly Hills home after a two-year legal battle for permission. Exclusive images show the former mansion replaced by construction mounds.

The historic property, once home to Katharine Hepburn during Hugh Hefner’s ownership, is located on a 2.5-acre hilltop compound in Beverly Hills’ 90210 neighborhood. The main house offers 9,146 square feet with four bedrooms and eight bathrooms.

Featuring seven fireplaces, gathering spaces, and stunning views, the opulent mansion includes two guest houses, a lighted tennis court, a screening room, and a pool with a pool house. The Mediterranean-style exterior boasts a grand entrance.

LeBron James and his family will enjoy their lavish lifestyle in privacy, thanks to the property’s dramatic and secluded setting. The construction signifies the realization of James’ vision for his ideal Beverly Hills residence
