Architecturally striking and luxurious, rockstar Gene Simmons’ Beverly Hills mansion, has reentered the market for the second time after being sold in 2021.
Unveiled in a brand new light, the mansion is almost unrecognisable, having undergone a remarkable new renovation by LA-based design studio, Nobel. Spread across two acres of land, it boasts seven bedrooms and 11 bathrooms that make up 16,390 sq ft of immaculate living.
A Star-Studded Legacy
One of the most compelling aspects of this LA-based property relates to its previous owner. Musicality and rock ‘n’ roll run through the veins of this striking estate, that was originally purchased by the KISS bassist, Gene Simmons, in 1986, for $1.34 million and previously sold in 2021 for $16 million. Now, this unparalleled property has graced the market at $48 million.

Luxury Features that Defy Imagination
Every aspect of this mansion exudes sophisticated luxury, through both architectural design and carefully considered interiors.

Consisting of a three-car garage attached to the main house and a five-car garage with the option for lifts, which can accommodate 20 cars.
Only the finest materials are utilised throughout each living space — natural Italian marble, custom stone oak wood panels and brass furnishings combine to craft a moody ambience. High exposed beam ceilings with subtle backlighting and custom iron windows allow each space to be illuminated with natural light.
Interiors combine functionality with durability and luxurious design quality — a gourmet kitchen features Poliform cabinetry, Gagenau appliances and an all-marble central island. Other features include His and Hers custom wardrobes by Rimadesio, Gessi faucets and exquisite furniture pieces from Minotti, Henge and Baxter.
