Adam Levine buys Rob Lowe’s former mansion for a whopping $52M

nypost.com:

Adam Levine and his Namibian model wife Behati Prinsloo have shelled out a cool $52 million for a trophy mansion in this tony oceanside enclave, which has drawn in household names including Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres and Rob Lowe — the latter of whom built, and formerly owned, the property that the couple just bought.The eight-figure transaction seems to have happened off-market, so the home’s current inclusions aren’t immediately clear.

But what’s for certain is that Levine and Prinsloo aren’t strangers to Montecito. In 2021, they flipped an estate there for $28.5 million — $5.8 million more than what they paid for it just three months earlier, according to Dirt.

And this purchase comes at a bit of a streak for them. What’s more, the couple reportedly listed their compound in affluent Pacific Palisades for $57.5 million just last month.Lowe and his wife, the makeup artist and jewelry designer Sheryl, purchased the land upon which the mansion stands in 2005, then proceeded to build a roughly 10,000-square-foot spread reportedly inspired by the architectural style of the Virginia countryside, where Lowe spent time as a kid.

In 2020, the pair sold it for $44.5 million. (They own two other homes in Montecito.)The most recent owners of the 3.5-acre estate, called Oakview, are Jack McGinley — a healthcare private equity executive — and his wife, Julie.
