The 12,670 square feet of living space includes massive dual-stairway entry, a pub, three fireplaces, a home theater, a sauna, a library, an elevator and eight en suite bedrooms. The oversized kitchen has a mosaic-tile wall behind the commercial range and a large island.
There are also extensive covered patios, a 633-square-foot guesthouse, a swimming pool with a spa and a putting green. The 1,548-square-foot garage can accommodate five cars.
Michael Jackson, who died in 2009 at 50, got his start as a member of the family group the Jackson 5. His album “Thriller” had record sales.
Katherine Jackson leased the nearly one-acre property, where she lives with the late singer’s children, for $26,000 after the pop star’s death.
