Hollywood heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio’s longest love affair is with beautiful homes and if you have some cash to splash, you can experience it firsthand by becoming his tenant.
The award-winning actor dropped $US9.9 million ( $14 million) on a gorgeous 1930-era mansion in Beverly Hills late last year – and has just listed the now-updated estate for rent.
If you have a cool $US32,500 ($48,000) per month to spare, you could very well be calling the Revenant star your landlord, according to Dirt.
DiCaprio stands out from other celebrity homeowners (ahem, Ellen DeGeneres) because he doesn’t offload his buys swiftly or flip the homes. In fact, “[he] has retained most of his purchases, turning his less frequented homes into rental properties,” says Architectural Digest.
The 464-square-metre immaculately updated home boasts four bedrooms, six bathrooms, a chef’s kitchen, white oak floors and sits on just over 1100-square-metres of prime Beverly Hills Flats real estate.
The rental is fully furnished and available immediately, according to the listing. Serious applicants will also need a $US97,500 security deposit.
The renovated kitchen is now outfitted with high-end Sub-Zero, Viking and Wolf appliances, a beverage centre and eat-in island.
The space is emboldened by black Marquina granite and white Carrara marble, and includes an adjacent breakfast nook with floor-to-ceiling French doors leading out to an al fresco dining terrace.
Upstairs, three ensuite bedrooms include an impressive master retreat with impressive cathedral ceiling. The space boasts a mini-bar, walk-in closet and luxe marble bath equipped with beautiful oval soaking tub.
Other features of the estate include a substantial outdoor pool and a separate guesthouse with its own patio.
The home is also shrouded behind prominent gates and established trees, providing a secluded oasis for DiCaprio, who is notoriously private.
Ever the shrewd property investor, DiCaprio picked up the arresting mansion for $US300,000 cheaper than its original $US10.2 million asking price.
This most recent purchase is far from the A-lister’s first real estate move of 2021.
Just a few months ago in September, the megastar spent a cool $US19.5 million on a lavish beachfront retreat in Malibu while concurrently listing his other holiday house, located in Malibu’s Carbon Beach, aka ‘Billionaire’s Beach’.
And, although DiCaprio’s fortune hasn’t quite ascended to the dizzying heights of the 10-figure club, with a net worth estimated to be around $US366.5 million, the Academy Award winner has more than enough cash to splash on an ever-growing property portfolio.
The 47-year-old is also reported to own two gorgeous homes in Los Angeles’ hillside suburb of Los Feliz, as well as numerous properties in New York City, and even a private island off the coast of Belize called Blackadore Caye.
