Los Angeles, CA - Khloe Kardashian's ex and rapper French Montana splashes out almost $8.5 million to buy Hidden Hills, CA mansion from NBA star Paul 'PG-13' George. The basketball star has finally managed to unload his mammoth mansion out in guard-gated Hidden Hills, deep within LA’s San Fernando Valley after six months on the market. The 1.35-acre property went for $8.4 million, a cut under the $9.5 million asking price but still significantly more than the $7.4 million paid back in 2016 by the NBA baller. Records reveal the buyer is an entity controlled by Karim Kharbouch, the Moroccan-born, Grammy-nominated rapper and songwriter better known as French Montana. Built in 1989, the nearly 16,000sq ft structure is massive, although from certain angles it actually appears smaller than its specs would suggest. From the backyard and aerial views, the bunker-esqué manor resembles a modern-meets-old-world-Tuscan style confection. The property sits on Ashley Ridge - Hidden Hills’s most desirable neighborhood pocket, where other residents include Khloe Kardashian and her momager Kris Jenner. Guests will be wowed by the great room, which at 4,000 sq ft is larger than most homes. Motorized skylights allow natural light to reflect on the shimmery polished floors, and the space is further enhanced by a mature indoor tree and walls of glass. Within the room, there are several more intimate sitting areas, including one adjoining a large stone fireplace. Over in the kitchen, six horse-legged stools surround a marble breakfast bar, and there’s the expected full kit of designer stainless appliances. Other home highlights include a games room, fireplace-equipped den, formal dining room, movie theater, gym with steam shower, wine cellar, and a mahogany-paneled study. Upstairs, the titanic master suite is sumptuous, if admittedly a bit dated. There’s a sitting room with gray wall-to-wall carpeting, a skylit bathroom with granite countertops and its own lounge space, two dressing rooms/walk-in closets, and a private sunning patio. The patio overlooks the tiered backyard, which packs in every resort amenity possible — a basketball court, built-in children’s playset, outdoor kitchen with BBQ, an entertainer’s patio with a fireplace, and separate music/TV center as well as a stunning pool.
