Avril Lavigne & Deryck Whibley just bought a new mansion in Bel-Air in the Los Angeles area!
I saw somewhere that Avril originally wanted to build her own dream house, but she must have found one close enough because they paid $9.5 million dollars for a 3 story “Tuscan-style” 12,000 square-foot home on one half hectare of land.
(Picture is the front door to her new house)
Avril must like Tuscan-Style houses because she already has one in Beverly Hills that she is apparently selling for $6.2 million!
The pics below are from inside her OLD 6,864 square feet house with “only” 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. 🙂
June 2008 Update – Now Avril has sold her old home for $5.2 Million !
But their NEW house has 8 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, plus an elevator, an office, a steam shower, a sauna, a pool, and a garage big enough for 10 cars!
I also read that her new house used to be owned by Travis Barker (former drummer of Blink-182) and his wife (at the time) Shanna Moakler and its where they filmed their MTV reality show Meet the Barkers – and MTV reported back in August they were putting the house up for sale for $8.5 million, and from everything I’ve read it has bounced between $8.0 and $9.5 million ever since.
UPDATE: I just read that Travis Barker bought this house in September 2004 for $6.2 million!
