Not content with one home in LA, Simon Cowell has now purchased a new £9.8million home. The two-storey home comes with a swimming pool surrounded by Grecian urns whilst the walls are decorated in orange and browns with clashing striped armchairs. Cowell actually bought the property back in October but news of the purchase only surfaced last week. The property was built back in 1966 and is 7,265sq ft in size. It has four bedrooms and four bathrooms and it is totally secure as it is located in a private estate. The home has stunning ocean and city views with outdoor fireplaces and screening room for him to watch all of his TV shows. This is Simon’s second LA home as he already has a £15million home in Beverley Hills which is often featured in X Factor when contestants get the opportunity to go to judges houses for a week. Simon has spent the last five years renovating this property and they have only just been completed. He also purchased a £5million property nearby but gave this property to his ex-fiancée Mezhgan Hussainy after they parted company. Hal Levitt, a world famous architect who designed homes for Dean Martin, Burt Lancaster and Debbie Reynolds, designed this new property for Simon. The previous owner of the house was Randy Phillips who was the promoter behind the Michael Jackson tour This Is It. Simon’s neighbours will now be Jennifer Aniston and Ellen DeGeneres. Also residing in the private estate is Ringo Starr as he also values his privacy. Simon must feel the same after a crazed fan broke into his London home back in March. The lady in question came face to face with Simon whilst holding a brick, Simon admitted later that it could easily have been a gun. Simon is known to have increased security since this episode in all of his residences. All of his homes have top of the range security but this new home in LA is in a gated development so it has that extra element of security and privacy. Cowell’s other homes is his £2.1million home in Barbados and another which is currently being built on the island which is reported to be worth £9million. This property is not due to be completed until 2015 but there have been reports that the company behind its investment is having financial problems. He also owns a home in Malaga and one on the Palm Jumeirah island in Dubai. http://www.uklandforsale.org
