The Rock bought his dream home from fellow actor and comedian, Paul Reiser, of Mad About You fame. Before that, it was owned by musician and rock star Alex Van Halen, who built the breathtaking property in 1993.
The house sits on 3.67 acres of land and is considered to be among the largest properties in the neighborhood. And not just any neighborhood.
The Rock’s house is set in Beverly Park, Los Angeles’ most exclusive neighborhood, home to countless A-listers. Johnson, one of the best-paid actors in Hollywood, has equally famous neighbors like Denzel Washington, Sofia Vergara, Eddie Murphy, Rod Stewart, and Adele, to name a few.
His estate was described as “a complete resort” in a previous listing and, after taking a look at it, we have to agree that it’s indeed a palatial property worthy of the moniker.
We love the ‘Tuscan feel’ of the property
The stunning olive tree-lined driveway leads to a pea gravel motor court that features a stone fountain.
There are ivy archways, an eye-catching red-tiled roof, airy balconies, and covered loggias. There are also many gates for easy access in and out of the property.
Massive French doors open to the backyard and there are dreamy, serene trails all over. With so much natural beauty, it feels like a postcard from the Tuscan countryside.
The property has a colossal 18,000 square feet of living space spread across the main mansion as well as the detached 2,500-square-foot guesthouse. What really makes this estate fit for a (scorpion) king are the top-notch amenities.
Think a world-class gym, full-sized tennis court, movie theater, baseball diamond, a music studio that was originally installed by Van Halen, an elevator, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and a spa — which makes it sound like an amazing private retreat. For a closer look at The Rock’s house, head to his Instagram profile Dwayne Johnson is many things but perhaps his most important role of all is being a loving husband and a doting dad-of-three.
His Insta page is a treasure house of precious moments with his family, especially his youngest daughters, Jasmine and Tiana. It also gives fans the chance to take a closer look at what the interiors of his home are like. From his daughters’ bedrooms, the chic living room, the gorgeous kitchen, and the perfectly pruned flower beds in the garden, Johnson and his wife seem to have impeccable taste when it comes to décor.
The front of the mansion features a large white door with pillars on either side that the family loves to decorate for the season. Johnson’s favorite feature in the house, of course, is the gym, which he has dubbed his “Iron Paradise.” When they’re not in California, the family often spends time in Powder Springs, Georgia where the star owns a 45-acre equestrian estate.
With Johnson slated to make his DC debut as Black Adam soon, we can only see bigger and brighter things in his future! Which might just as well mean more stunning million dollar homes for us to gawk at. So stay tuned!
