Russell Simmons, the music executive who is credited for discovering the Beastie Boys and Run-D. M. C. , wants $8. 25 million for his residence in Los Angeles. He has owned it since 2013, when it was valued at $5. 8775 million.
The Spanish-style house, which was constructed in the 1930s, is situated in Los Angeles’s West Hollywood.
The 0. 33-acre estate features a main house (with five bedrooms and six bathrooms) as well as a second house (with one bedroom and one bathroom). The master suite has come to include an extensive bathroom and closet as well as a terrace.
The residence has an Asian-influenced aesthetic, which directly reflects Simmons’s interests (the music executive has been a longtime advocate of yoga and Eastern wellness practices).
It is decorated with Simmons’s art collection, which includes Buddha statues and street art.
The interiors boast an elevated but warm aesthetic – from the dark-wood accents to the spiral-shaped stairs. Outside, there is a secret entrance with access to a subterranean area that features a humidor and a wine cellar which can accommodate 1,500 bottles. The residence is enclosed by two rows of hedge walls and is made even more secure with an electronic gate.
