Katy Perry: How She Won the Montecito Estate of Her Dreams

Katy Perry, the famous pop star, has finally secured the deal to buy a lavish $15 million estate in Montecito, California.

The property, which belongs to Jim McCann, the founder of 1-800-Flowers, has been on the market for a while. Perry had been interested in acquiring it but faced some legal hurdles. However, a judge has recently ruled in her favor, allowing her to proceed with the purchase.

The estate is a stunning 9-acre compound with a main house, a guest house, a pool, a tennis court, and a beautiful garden.

Perry will be joining other celebrities who live in the area, such as Oprah Winfrey and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Perry is known for her hit songs such as “Firework”, “Roar”, and “Dark Horse”.

She is also a judge on the popular singing competition show “American Idol”.

But this is not the only property that Perry owns or has owned in the past. The singer has a penchant for real estate and has bought and sold several homes in Los Angeles and elsewhere. Here are some of her other notable properties:

– A Beverly Hills estate that she listed for $19.5 million in 2022. The property spans 4 acres and includes four separate structures: a main house, two guest houses, and a guard house. The main house has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a chef’s kitchen, a library, and a gym. The estate also features a swimming pool, a spa, a basketball court, and a playground.
– A Hollywood Hills compound that she sold for $9.4 million in 2017. The property consists of four residential buildings: a Mediterranean-style main house, a guest house, a caretaker’s house, and a security guard’s house. The main house has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, two fireplaces, and a Roman-style bath. The compound also boasts a lagoon-style pool, a waterfall, and a cabana.
– A Malibu beach house that she rented for $11,000 per month in 2015. The property is located on the exclusive Carbon Beach and has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, an open-plan living area, and a gourmet kitchen. The house also offers stunning views of the ocean and direct access to the sand.

Perry seems to have a taste for luxury and variety when it comes to her homes. She once said that she likes to collect houses as others collect cars. With her latest acquisition in Montecito, she adds another gem to her impressive portfolio.
