The Beverly Hills Cop star shared the 10-bedroom mansion in Granite Bay, California, with his ex-wife Nicole, who filed for divorce in 2005 after 12 years of marriage.
The couple – who purchased the property in 1998 – used it as a holiday home with their five children Bria, 19, Miles, 16, Shane Audra, 14, Zola Ivy, 9, and six-year-old Bella Zahra.
It features a home theatre with an arcade, tennis court, gymnasium, swimming pool, spa and outdoor kitchen complete with a barbecue. The 11,000 sq ft mansion has views of the nearby Folsom Lake, and is situated on 2.5 acres of land. As well as 10 bedrooms, the property comes with a detached 5,200 sq ft guest house which has two additional suites.
Nicole – who legally separated from Eddie in October 2006 and is now rumoured to be dating American football star Michael Strahan – has also reportedly put her own house, located in Calabases, California, up for sale for nearly USD10 million.
The sale comes shortly after Eddie split from ‘wife’ Tracey Edmonds. The couple ‘married’ in a ceremony on a private island near Bora Bora, but split two weeks later before they made their union legal in the US.
The 46-year-old actor also has a 17-year-old son, Christian, from his relationship with Tamara Hood, and an eight-month-old daughter, Angel Iris, with Spice Girls star Mel B.
