    The late Quincy Jones' former home is up for sale for almost $60 million

    The legendary producer - who died last November aged 91 - designed the vast Bel Air abode himself, based on the Palace of the Lost City hotel in South Africa, and now the near 25,000-acre estate has been listed for $59,995,000


    According to TMZ, the house features five bedrooms, including a primary suite with its own huge bathroom, multiple walk-in closets, an exercise room, a den and a private balcony.

    Three guest suites include a junior primary suite with two bathrooms, a terrace, walk-in closet and its own living room.

    In addition, the property - which offers sweeping views of the San Gabirel Mountains, Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean from its location at the end of a private cul-de-sac - also features an infinity pool, tennis court, indoor garden, wine bar, games lounge and a screenig room.

    Quincy's daughter, Rashida Jones, said of the property: "My father loved his home so much. He created it from the ground up with his boundless imagination and the talent of his high school friend, legendary architect Jerry Allison.

    "Our family has a lifetime worth of wonderful memories and meaning imbued in this home. We hope the new owner will continue the legacy of love and laughter and beauty that is synonymous with the name Quincy Jones."

    Quincy died at his home on 3 November, and just over a week later, his death certificate confirmed he has passed away from pancreatic cancer.

    The iconic producer - who worked with the likes of Michael Jackson and Will Smith during the course of his career - was laid to rest at an undisclosed location days after his passing.

    The intimate funeral service was attended by the 'Thriller' producer's seven children, his brother and two sisters, and other immediate family members.

    Quincy's death was announced by his family.

    They said in a statement: "Tonight, with full but broken hearts, we must share the news of our father and brother Quincy Jones' passing.

    "And although this is an incredible loss for our family, we celebrate the great life that he lived and know there will never be another like him."
