Stunning Estate Where Kenny Rogers Spent His Last Days Finds a Buyer — See Inside! [Pictures]

The spectacular Atlanta-area estate where Kenny Rogers spent his last days has found a buyer, very shortly after going on the market.

The superstar singer reportedly spent the last days of his life at his 6-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom, 5,972-square-foot mansion in the affluent Atlanta suburb of Sandy Springs before dying in March 2020.

His widow, Wanda, listed the stunning mansion for sale on Sept. 12, 2024, asking $2.475 million. According to online property records, the luxury property received an offer very quickly, and a deal went into pending status in late September.

The deal is not yet final, and the selling price has not been publicly disclosed. If the buyer paid the full asking price, that breaks down to $414 per square foot and a monthly payment of $14,227.

The highlights of the magnificent estate include:

A two-story foyer with marble floors and a soaring staircase.

Breathtaking formal living and dining rooms.

A custom glass-enclosed elevator.

A professional grade kitchen with a butler's pantry and wine fridge.

A turret that houses a home office.

A home theater.

An owner's suite with a granite fireplace, dual vanities and dual closets.

Meticulous landscaping.

A covered patio, pool and hot tub in the back lawn, which features maintenance-free synthetic turf.

Kenny Rogers developed a taste for fine living early in his success. His ultra-lavish mansion in Bel Air, Calif., an estate called Lionsgate, was opulent even by celebrity standards. The 11-bedroom, 17-bathroom home totals 23,988 square feet of space, and it sits on 1.63 acres of some of the most expensive real estate in California.

The lavish interior includes a master suite that encompasses more than 3,000 square feet, three separate living rooms, seven fireplaces, a billiards room, a formal study, a private 12-seat theater with leather seats, a climate-controlled wine room that opens onto a saltwater pool, three steam showers and a large dry sauna. The property also features an outdoor glass elevator that leads to a large ballroom party space with an attached guest suite and a professional-sized gym.

The exterior of the house is just as lavish, including an outdoor living area with heated floors and a fully equipped bar, a tennis court with stadium lighting and a viewing area, a hot tub and extensive landscaping. Realtor.com calls Lionsgate the "most prestigious luxury estate" in Bel Air, boasting "possibly the best views in Los Angeles."

According to Business Insider, Rogers purchased the estate in the 1970s, and he added the lions to the gate and christened the home Lionsgate. He sold it in 1983 for $5.8 million, according to Variety, and the property most recently sold in 2015 for a staggering $46.25 million.
