David Foster
Sells His Malibu
Manse for $19m
It was real estate uber-insider Peter Propertyseller
who first snitched, and property records
now confirm, that 16-time Grammy-winning
composer, producer, and songwriter David Foster
and “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”
cast member Yolanda Foster have sold their
Malibu mansion for $19.45 million. Last listed
at $23.5 million, the 3.25-acre estate was
first floated off market by the couple in the fall
of 2013, before it was officially hoisted on the
open market in early 2014, with an in-hindsight
chimerical $27.5 million price tag.
The custom-built Mediterranean mansion,
at the end of a long gated drive with indisputably
dazzling ocean and coastline views, was
described in marketing materials as “reminiscent
of a romantic European villa,” spanning
more than 11,600 square feet over three
floors, with six bedrooms and nine bathrooms.
Extra-wide plank reclaimed Bavarian walnut
floors run throughout the casually sumptuous
main floor living spaces that include a combination
living/dining room, paneled library/
office and family room — all three with fireplaces,
and a colossal kitchen that features a
glass-fronted and marble-lined walk-in refrigerator.
The sprawling master suite opens to a terrace
with panoramic views and includes a fireplace,
semicircular office nook, two bathrooms
and a pair of enormous dressing rooms kitted
out like high-end boutiques. A subterranean
level offers a screening room with tiered seating
on plush couches, recording studio, game
room with wet bar, and an exercise suite with
lounge, sauna and massage room, while the
grounds offer a photogenic infinity-edge swimming
pool, broad sweeps of flat and well-watered
lawns, a built-in firepit, extensive gardens
and a citrus orchard planted on a
terraced hillside above the house.
