It’s still worth talking about that Winnie Harlow bought a fancy home in Los Angeles more than a year ago and posted a happy Instagram photo that got hundreds of thousands of likes. Maybe because it’s strange that one of the most sought-after fashion models in the world lives in Tarzana, a middle-class neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley, instead of Hollywood Hills or Beverly Hills.
Harlow’s $3.3 million purchase of her first home in Tarzana shows that the area is once again thriving. Harlow’s new home is about 5,000 square feet and was custom built by a local builder. The land is mostly flat, and the backyard is big, with covered terraces, a grilling area, a fire pit, and a saltwater pool with a waterfall. In the big, green backyard of the house, Harlow might build a sports court and a simple guesthouse.
