Kanye West Sells Hollywood Hills Home He Has Owned Since 2003, For $2.95 Million

Back in 2003, Kanye West was an established hip-hop producer with production credits on some of the most iconic hip-hop songs of the 2000s. But despite his reputation as a producer, he had yet to make his name as an artist in his own right. He was on the cusp of releasing his debut album, The College Dropout , which would launch his career into hip-hop superstardom. But prior to the release of his album, he did something that many people do after saving up a significant amount of money; he bought a house. Now, 14 years later, Kanye has finally sold the house he called home when he first broke into the rap game.
Kanye West sold his longtime home in Hollywood Hills, California for $2.95 million after several attempts to find a buyer. The home, which was built in 2002, features a formal entry, a home theater, breakfast room, a den with a cartoon character theme, three bedrooms, and four bathrooms.
The 4,214 square foot property, which is reportedly controlled by “built-in computers” also features a mural in the dining room, a fishtank in the master bathroom, and a modern chandelier on top of the bar area.
West had been trying to sell the home for a significant amount of time. He initially put the house on the market in 2010 for $3.995 million, then brought down the price of the property in 2013 to $3.3 million. Despite selling the home for roughly $1 million below his initial asking price, West still raked in a decent profit; records show that he bought the property for $1.75 million in 2003.
West and his wife Kim Kardashian also own properties in Bel-Air and Hidden Hills, California.
