    Kanye West's former Malibu home is up for sale again

    Just six months after the controversial rapper sold his 4,700-square-foot beachfront house at a huge loss for $21 million, it is back on the market for $30 million


    Designed by the renowned Pritzker Prize-winning Japanese architect Tadao Ando, the iconic home was purchased by Kanye in 2021 for a huge $57.25 million.

    He then proceeded to remove the windows and gut the interior of the property, before abandoning his renovation plans and putting it back on the market, where it sold for $21 million six months ago.

    Realtors Amanda Lynn and Dylan Eckardt of are listing the property, with Dylan telling Variety: "This is one of the bigger listings for me and Amanda together. I'm gonna sell it this time to a great collector who wants to finish a masterpiece."

    Amanda shared on Instagram: "New Exclusive! $30,000,000. Seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a masterpiece designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando. This architectural gem, formerly owned by Kanye West, was originally purchased for $57.3 million. Now listed at $30 million, this exclusive offering by Amanda Lynn invites you to experience unparalleled minimalist luxury. 24844 Malibu Rd, Malibu, CA 90265. Now available. Serious inquiries only. #LuxuryRealEstate #Malibu #TadaoAndo #ArchitecturalMasterpiece #Ye #KanyeWest #realtorsofinstagram #luxurylifestyle."

    Contractor Tony Saxon carried out much of the demolition work for Kanye and previously told The New Yorker: "It's funny - and not funny, in a way - to say, 'I'm the man who single-handedly destroyed this architectural masterpiece'. But I pretty much did."

    Kanye reportedly wanted to turn the house into a retro bomb shelter, and as a result the kitchen, bathrooms, windows, light fixtures, heating and air conditioning were all removed, while power and water was cut.
