Previously, a verified source, the New York Post reported that Bezos and his now-girlfriend Lauren Sanchez were searching for a house in Los Angeles and were touring mansions.

As per Page Six, Bezos has been searching for the home from 2019.

The 13 thousand square feet mansion boasts two guesthouses, a swimming pool, a tennis court, and a nine-hole golf course. A site described the 1930s designed home as a party palace.

According to Architectural Digest, it includes a motor court that has a garage and indoor gas pumps.

The previous owner, David Geffen, purchased the villa in 1990 for $47.5 million.

A site, The Verge calculated, $165 million is an eighth of a percent of Bezos’ $131 billion net worth. For context, if you make $60,000 a year, that’s like spending $75 on the house.

Record-Setting Purchase   

Reported by the Wall Street Journal, the purchase amount of $165 million is the history-making real estate transaction in the City Of Angels made by the ex-husband of charitable MacKenzie Bezos.
