Drake is finally getting rid of his old bachelor pad in Toronto’s exclusive Yorkville shopping district, and moving full-time to the celebrity-hot spot in California’s San Fernando Valley.
The rapper/singer who recently released his latest album, Nothing Was The Same sold his three-bedroom, 3,600-square-foot 1 St. Thomas St. condo for $3.75 million just days before his 27th birthday. The condo was initially up for sale at $4.2 million in July.
Drake dropped nearly 7.7 million on his dream home in Hidden Hills in July 2012, and from the looks of things it was worth every penny. Many might find the mansion familiar due to Drake’s Grammy-drinking vlog, but it’s a staple property on the Hollywood scene.
The 12,500-square-foot mansion, famously known as Old Lion Manor, sits in the same neighborhood as the Kardashian/Jenner clan, Tamar Braxton and Vince Herbert, Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, Denise Richards and Sinbad.
THE Ultimate Hidden Hills Compound Estate! A World Class private resort like no other! Purchased in 2003 for land value only, the owner spent 4 years rebuilding and constructing this one of a kind masterpiece. No expense spared on interior appointments and all new exterior grounds. A new waterworld multi-million dollar pool boasts cascading waterfalls, 80′ slide, grotto and more. Other exterior features include N/S Tennis court, 5 stall horse facilities with riding area, sand volleyball court, commercial bathrooms, mechanical bull, viewing pavilions and more. The all new interior appointments are second to none boasting unparalleled quality for the most discriminating buyer. 24 seat theater, game room, spa/massage room, master with his and hers bathrooms, and the most spectacular wine cellar/tasting room you have ever seen. This is the most unique and awe inspiring estate on the market!!!
Lawrence Pollack who started the Saddle Ranch Restaurant chain, famous for their mechanical bull and William Peter Blatty who is famous for writing the novel The Exorcist lived here before Drake snagged the spot.
Take a look at Drake’s new pad. I’m sure he’s not missing the condo so much.
