The Woodland Hills, Calif., compound, now listed by Atlanta-based singer and actor Tyrese Gibson at just under $2.9 million, surpassing twice the $1.385 million he paid for it 11 years ago when it was first built, is an understated tan-colored Mediterranean-style house.
Despite its unremarkable exterior, the property is poised for a significant price increase, reflecting the changes and upgrades made during Gibson’s ownership.
Since the late 1990s, the singer behind hits like “Sweet Lady” and “How You Gonna Act Like That” has successfully released six albums, boasting an impressive 3.7 million records sold, as estimated online. Renowned for his roles in five “Fast & Furious” films and three “Transformers” movies, Tyrese Gibson has found particular success in the cinematic realm.
As he gears up for upcoming projects, such as the “Spider-Man” spinoff “Morbius” alongside Jared Leto and two more installments in the “Fast & Furious” franchise, Gibson is increasingly establishing himself as not just a singer but a prominent figure in the world of cinema.
Gibson’s just-under-half-acre property, recently featured on Zillow Gone Wild and listed by “Selling Sunset” star Jason Oppenheim of The Oppenheim Group, comprises four structures.
The main house, boasting five bedroom suites, includes a primary suite featuring two walk-in closets and a terrace. In total, the property encompasses 5.5 bathrooms, providing a blend of comfort and luxury.
While the residence features some extravagant elements, such as the grandiose double-height combination foyer and living room adorned with a majestic curved staircase and ornate wrought-iron railings, the majority of the main house embodies the typical upscale suburban style, offering comfortable living for a large family.
The expansive living room is characterized by a sleek black fireplace, white slipcovered furniture, and a baby grand piano. The home cinema is furnished with brown microsuede chairs, and the spacious, high-end kitchen seamlessly opens to a dining area and family room.
Most bathrooms, including the master bath, showcase medium-brown wood cabinetry and beige tiles. However, the back of the house presents a more whimsical ambiance. A prominent yellow Transformer statue presides over a fire pit, surrounded by a circular built-in bench featuring patriotic red, white, and blue cushions—a reminiscent feature also found in Gibson’s former Atlanta mansion’s front yard and foyer.
An Asian-inspired poolside pavilion boasts an outdoor kitchen, a built-in grilling station and bar with cherry-red countertops, a half-bath, and a complete Benihana-style Teppanyaki setup discreetly placed behind shoji screens. This unique blend of elegance and playfulness creates a distinctive charm within the property.
