Britney Spears Sells Calabasas Home for Millions Less Than She Paid for It Just 9 Months Ago

The star purchased the home for $11.8 million, just days after her June wedding to Sam Asghari

Britney Spears is handing over the keys to her Calabasas, California, home.

The seven-bedroom, nine-bath, 11,600-square-foot estate sold for just over $10 million — about $2 million less than the star bought it for.

Spears, 41, purchased the home for $11.8 million, according to Variety‘s Dirt, just days after her June wedding to Sam Asghari, 29. She listed it for $12 million with Bryce Pennel of Compass in January.

At the time of her initial purchase of the home, a source told PEOPLE that Spears was delighted with the property.

“Britney loves her new house. She picked it out with Sam,” the insider said. “She wanted a fresh start with Sam. It’s been very important to her to have a home that she picked up without having to ask for approval from [dad Jamie Spears].”

Spears herself made note of the house in a since-deleted Instagram post, lamenting at the time about the difficulties of juggling home buying and a wedding just days apart.

“Haven’t been on my honeymoon yet … got married and moved into a new house around the same time … not the smartest thing to do … 🤧🤧🤧🤔🤔🤔 … oh well it’s coming together,” she wrote.

The house, which sits on a 1.6 acre lot, is a one-story contemporary Mediterranean style and features dramatic double entry doors that open onto a grand foyer with 33-foot ceilings.

The backyard features striking mountain views from the mosaic-tiled pool, which has a waterfall and a jacuzzi. Elsewhere there’s a covered, heated patio with an outdoor kitchen, plus a one-bedroom guest house.

Inside, the chef’s kitchen includes a wraparound breakfast bar, a center Island with hand carved details, multiple food prep areas, and an oversized walk-in pantry.
