Bad Bunny has a home that confirms his A-list status. He is frequently referred to as the world’s most famous person. Grammy-winning Puerto Rican rap-reggaeton sensation Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, né Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio has paid $8.8M for this Los Angeles estate.
The modern estate, which was built in 2005 and previously sold for $8.2M in 2015, is located high above the city’s bustling Sunset Strip. Although the mansion had not been posted for sale at the time of Bad Bunny’s purchase, it had previously been offered for $9M by Ali Jassim, a longtime business friend of Sheikh Mansour, the Arab multibillionaire who owns Manchester City, the English football team. Jassim is also said to have a primary property on the Caribbean island, which could be a fascinating coincidence.
The fortress-like mansion is hidden from the public eye by gates and a high wall, and there is off-street parking for at least six cars. The garage is joined to a two-story guesthouse located near the five-bedroom main home; together, the two structures feature eight bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and almost 7,000 square feet of living space.
The interiors of the main house are whitewashed and beautifully decorated with modern materials. There are “several living rooms,” a dining room, and an island-equipped kitchen with Viking appliances, according to prior listings. The master suite on the second floor is distinguished by its imposingly huge wardrobe and designated sitting area. There is also a private balcony and a bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower and a freestanding Jacuzzi.
In the densely crowded Hollywood Hills, a huge and entirely useable backyard with a sprawling lawn, abundant patios, an infinity-edge pool, and a BBQ center is a rare amenity. A resort-like atmosphere is created by distant views of city lights and mature palm trees.
Bad Bunny is said to maintain a primary residence in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in addition to his current home in Los Angeles. Jassim also resides in San Juan, but he recently paid $12M for Anna Kournikova’s former residence in Miami.
