Singer Gene Simmons has recently purchased a huge mansion worth $10.5 million in Beverly Hills. Reports say the popular artist has closed a deal on a 4 bedroom and 5 bathroom house that totals around 8,000 sq. ft. of living space.
The deal has since been closed but Simmons' items are yet to make their way into the mansion. The house amenities include, but are not limited to, a pool striped by LED lighting, a home theater, a built-in art installation, and a large wine cellar.
The musician recently sold his Beverly Hills home at $16 million and listed his Vegas crib at $15 million. The mansion that he bought recently was first listed at $11.5 million. The seller was represented by celebrity real estate agent Tomer Fridman, who has represented the Kardashian family on all their real estate transactions.
