Hugh Hefner
Hugh Hefner purchased the Playboy House for $1 million in 1974. After more than 40 years and numerous wild evenings, a millionaire called Daren Metropoulos acquired it for $105 million in 2016. In today's money, that's almost $113 million. It is one of the most expensive celebrity homes ever.
The stone-lined Gothic Tudor-style residence, designed by architect Kelly, was erected for department company scion Arthur Letts Jr. in 1927. Chef and catering kitchens, a gaming room, a wine cellar, and a screening room with a built-in pipe organ are among the 29 rooms in the home. Within 20,000 square feet of living space, there are twelve bedrooms, including a two-story master suite. The mansion is also one of just a few in Los Angeles with a zoo license. A menagerie of aviaries and arboretums house a collection of exotic birds and primates in park-like surroundings. Albino peacocks and other animals have been seen roaming freely amid formal gardens and rolling meadows. The property also has a gymnasium, a tennis court, an orchard, a four-bedroom guesthouse, and the notorious swimming pool and swim-in grotto.
