Rock-n-roll heiress Lisa Marie Presley–only daughter of Elvis and Priscilla and ex-wife of both Nic Cage and Michael Jackson–sold her compound in the upscale guard-gated neighborhood of Hidden Hills, CA in November 2010 for $ 5,000,000. The new owner, a Los Angeles-based physician, apparently had tiny use for Miz Presley’s 8,000-ish square foot mansion and its many outbuildings. Thanks to a snap-pleased snitch we’ll call Heidi Hidesoutinhiddenhills the very good physician razed LMP’s mansion and a lot of the landscaping that the moment surrounded it in order to make way for his own–no doubt steroidal–version of Barbie’s Dream House.
Not extended prior to she sold her house in Hidden Hills, Princess Presley and her fourth husband, music producer Michael Lockwood, plus their young twins and her two young-adult-aged youngsters from her 1st marriage to musician Danny Keough, decamped for the U.K. The blended loved ones reportedly settled into the humongous and historic Coes Hall, a sprawling estate in East Sussex quite near a somewhat (in)famous estate referred to as Saint Hill Manor, which happens to be Britain’s Scientology headquarters.
Of no particular relevance to this discussion but fascinating none the much less is that Mister Keough served as the very best man at LMP’s nuptials to her present husband. That youngsters, is so damn civilized and modern that we just can’t stand it. Actually. Our point of view on the matter may well seem odd to some but it is deeply informed by the friendly nature of our very own blended household in which the youngsters of Your Mama’s Big Daddy’s third wife–that would be our step-momma’s young children from a earlier betrothal–used to invest a week every summer season at the beach with Your Mama’s Momma who was Massive Daddy’s very first wife. Does that make sense, bunnies? ‘Tis genuine.
Anyhoodles poodles, property records and prior reports reveal that the formidable but reduced-crucial (and wildly wealthy) Miss Presley paid $ two,600,000 for her horsey Hidden Hills compound back in December 1993 when she was a dewy lass in her mid-twenties with the very same swarthy and smoldering visage of her popular father. At the identical time she bought the compound she paid another $ 625,000 for the adjacent property, a thickly-treed 1.47 acre parcel with a two,842 square foot property tucked down a long drive at the back of the property that butts up to the Ahmanson Ranch. It really is broadly reported that Miz Presley’s first hubby, Danny Keough, occupied the property in order that both parents could remain a constant presence in their childrens‘ lives.
Miz Presley very first got ants in her true estate pants sometime ahead of October 2009 when she officially listed her 3.07-acre equestrian compound with an optimistic asking price tag of $ eight,995,000. The property was de- and re-listed numerous occasions and by July 2010 the price tag tag had plummeted to $ 6,995,000.
The property encompassed a primary residence with five bedrooms and 5.five bathrooms in about 8,000 square feet of interior space, a a single bedroom guest house and a recreational annex with recording studio. A 3-stall barn had an connected bedroom and pooper perfect for a beau-hunky live-in groomsman. The grounds, prior to they had been scraped up by the present owner (see photo above), had broad rolling lawns with mature shade trees, an orchard, several outdoor entertaining locations, and a free of charge-type swimming pool and spa with a water slide that swooshes by way of an imposing pile of boulders. Iffin we’re becoming honest, and we constantly are, we have no idea if the new owner kept of demolished the swimming pool place.
At the very same time she listed her compound she place the residence up coming door–where Mister Keough lived–on the block with an also optimistic asking value of $ 1,995,000. As mentioned above, Miz Presley sold her compound to a SoCal healerman for five million clams and property records show she sold Mister Keough’s crib in February 2011 for $ 1,200,000.
Other residents/property owners of the Hidden Hills incorporate Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, Melissa Etheridge and her ex-wife Tammy Lynn Michaels, David Boreanaz, Nicolette Sheridan, former tween and pre-tween heart throb Shaun Cassidy, Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne and back in the saddle pop phenom Britney Spears who not long ago leased a resort-like estate within the gates of Hidden Hills that consists of a 19,107 square foot mansion with ten bedrooms and an unlucky 13 dirty organization cans. Hidden Hills is also the household seat of the Kardashian clan.
Coes Hall, in which Miz Presley and family members may possibly or may not at the moment reside –we actually have no thought if they’ve maintained their expat status or scrambled back to the great ol‘ U.S. of A.–includes a substantial updated mansion with sections that date back to the 15th-century. The residence contains 11 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, 9 receptions rooms, a state of the art sound technique and a cinema although the expansive and bucolic grounds give a tennis court, a swimming pool complicated with spa, parterre gardens, paddocks for the ponies and a private lake.
