Madonna Relists The Weeknd’s Former Home for Nearly $7 Million More Than She Bought It For Last Year

One year after buying the property from The Weeknd and making a number of interior renovations, Madonna has decided to relist her Hidden Hills mansion for $6.695 million more than she originally paid for it.

The pop legend’s estate, which she purchased from Dawn FM crooner in April 2021 for $19.3 million, is back on the market for $25.995 million. The home sits on nearly three acres of land in an ultra-exclusive gated community in Hidden Hills, California and features a 12,000 square-foot main residence. An olive tree-lined drive and storybook bridge leads up to the impressive home greets guests with a two-story wall of windows that allows natural light to flood the foyer and illuminate the white-walled interiors and stone accents. The main house boasts seven bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, while the guest house offers an additional two bedrooms and two baths, as well as a full kitchen. The home also features a formal dining room with a fireplace, a glass wine cellar, a chef’s kitchen, a home theater, a music lounge, a steam shower, a stone bath, and a great room with an indoor-outdoor bar.

Once outside, there’s also an outdoor living room with accompanying outdoor kitchen and BBQ, a zero-edge saltwater pool, a 10-person spa, and a full-size basketball court, all surrounded by grassy lawns and redwood trees. There’s also a barn on the estate where Madonna has installed a newly-built gym and dance slash pilates studio. While the music legend did make some interior changes to the property, no exterior changes have been made. The property is represented by listing agent Trevor Wright of The Beverly Hills Estates who could not be reached for comment.

While Madonna stands to make quite a profit on the property, she also picked it up for well under the original asking price. The home was initially listed for just under $25 million before she purchased it ten months later for around $5.7 million less. But even with that discount The Weeknd still turned a small profit as he originally bought the estate in 2017 for $18.2 million.
