Ozzy Osbourne Sells Los Angeles Mansion For $18 Million...
Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne has sold his longtime Los Angeles mansion for $18 million, according to property records filed Friday. The sale marks the end of an era for the Black Sabbath frontman, who owned the Benedict Canyon estate for over 30 years.
The 9,500-square-foot property, located in one of LA's most exclusive neighborhoods, features six bedrooms, a recording studio, and a pool with panoramic city views. The buyer's identity remains undisclosed, but records show the deal closed earlier this week.
The sale comes as Osbourne, 77, continues to step back from public life due to ongoing health issues. The musician announced his retirement from touring in 2023 after canceling several shows, citing complications from a 2019 fall and Parkinson's disease diagnosis.
Fans have flooded social media with nostalgic posts about the home, where Osbourne filmed portions of his reality show "The Osbournes" in the early 2000s. The property became iconic through the MTV series that showcased the rocker's family life with wife Sharon and their children.
Real estate experts note the sale price reflects LA's cooling luxury market, with the home originally listed for $20 million in 2022. The Tudor-style mansion underwent extensive renovations during Osbourne's ownership, including soundproofing for his music projects.
The transaction is trending nationally as fans reflect on Osbourne's legacy and the cultural impact of his family's reality TV breakthrough. Several entertainment news outlets have published retrospectives featuring footage from the home this week.
Neighbors told local reporters they'll miss the Osbournes' presence in the community, though Sharon and Ozzy reportedly plan to remain in California. The couple still owns properties in Malibu and Beverly Hills, according to public records.
