Rapper French Montana Lists Hidden Hills Home He Bought From Selena Gomez
French Montana must be feeling lucky in the new year, because the "No Stylist" rapper just listed his Hidden Hills, California, home for double what he bought it for in 2016. According to the Los Angeles Times, the rapper's Mediterranean-style mansion is on the market for $6.599 million, a substantial increase over the $3.3 million he paid when he bought it from pop songstress Selena Gomez.
Not that the price hike is totally out of left field, however: In the time he's owned the five-bedroom, six-bathroom mansion, Montana has upgraded it by adding a $400,000 recording studio to the one-bedroom, one-bathroom guesthouse, and painting over Gomez’s previously purple- and turquoise-hued interiors.
The 7,229-square-foot main house is quite opulent, with a high-ceilinged front entryway that opens to an airy sitting room anchored by a modern stone fireplace. A long, window-lined hallway leads to the grand dining room, which is undeniably a central feature of the luxury estate, with floor-to-ceiling windows, intricate chandeliers, and enough room for a sitting area at the far end of the space.
The chef’s kitchen is a similarly appealing feature of the home, with a large island, dual dishwashers, stone tile floors, and a sweet chandelier-topped breakfast nook nestled into an alcove of windows. The adjacent family room features another stone fireplace (there are five in total), as well as an entire wall of built-in shelves and cabinets. The master suite, located on the ground floor, is a cavernous oasis, with a sitting area, a fireplace, an alcove that can serve as an in-room vanity, and a spalike bathroom with a deep-soaking tub, an oversized glass-fronted steam shower, and a large walk-in closet.
Other noteworthy rooms include a home theater on the second floor, a gym, and an underground wine cellar. And there's a stunning outdoor courtyard with multiple patios and lawns, a swimming pool and spa, and a dining cabana with a brick pizza oven. An ivy-covered elephant statue lords over the backyard.
