Rod Stewart’s Beverly Park home

For more than a half-century, Sir Rod Stewart’s distinctive raspy voice and charismatic stage presence have made him a beloved and very successful artist. His classic songs — including “Mandolin Wind,” “Tonight’s the Night,” “Forever Young,” and “Maggie May” — have provided a soundtrack to generations from baby boomers to Generation Z.

The home of the London-born-and-raised star has 13 bedrooms and 28,500 square feet of living space on more than 3 acres of prime Los Angeles North Beverly Park turf. A bit flamboyant, just like the owner, the home has a striking yellow exterior, a large Las Vegas-style fountain, and ornate double doors that welcome visitors to the the grand foyer.

The first floor has two sitting rooms with intricate moldings, traditionally décor, and Old World treasures. There is a tea room, a den with fireplaces and loggias, a wine room, an exquisite dining room that seats 20, a bar with a large mirror and several oil-painted Renaissance nudes, French doors that lead to the covered loggia, manicured grounds, a wood-paneled library, wood-inlay floors, and a green speakeasy perfect for a nightcap.

There is also a 4,500-square-foot guest house. The estate is on the market for $80 million.

Jim Carrey’s ‘magical sanctuary’

Jim Carrey’s expressive face and high-energy slapstick performances propelled him to success in the “Dumb and Dumber,” “Mask,” and “Ace Ventura” franchises. Far from being typecast as a jokester, the Canadian-born actor would go on to achieve critical acclaim for dramatic roles in “The Truman Show” and “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.”

The winner of two Golden Globes and 11 MTV Movie and TV Awards, he has also published an award-winning children’s book, co-wrote the novel Memoirs and Misinformation, and portrayed Joe Biden on “Saturday Night Live.”

In 2022, he announced that he was taking a break from acting and was considering retirement. The prolific star relocated to his vacation property in Maui and put the Brentwood estate where he lived for 30 years up for sale. 

Now listed for $26.5 million (reduced from $28.9 million), the expansive ranch-style mansion is nestled behind huge hedges and gates. The 12,700-square-foot home features five bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and three half baths.
