Music mogul Diddy owns two Los Angeles homes, but he recently let go of one for a sad reason: the home formerly was occupied by his late ex-girlfriend, Kim Porter. As the mother of four of his six kids, she resided and passed away here from pneumonia in November 2018. The 9,655-square-foot home in Toluca Lake needs a little TLC, but the framework shows off an East Coast vibe in sunny California. And we have no doubt that the new owner Producer Charles D. King, who snagged the home for $6.5 million, will make it his own somehow.
The property boasts six bedrooms and six-and-a-half bathrooms with stunning high ceilings, plenty of natural light and gorgeous woodwork in many of the rooms. The primary bedroom has a private balcony and a large bathroom with a separate tub and shower, along with a built-in vanity area. The vaulted ceilings in the living room open up to a shaded and secluded backyard with an outdoor fireplace, pool, and basketball court.
Don’t miss the huge kitchen with tons of counter space and the private screening room — and be sure to check out more photos at Dirt.
