Minecraft Creator Markus Persson’s $70,000,000 Beverly Hills Mansion Is Back on the Market

MINECRAFT creator Markus Persson’s Beverly Hills mansion is back on the market for $70 million. He bought it in 2014 for $70 million (outbidding Beyoncé and Jay-Z) and later added a recording studio and a nightclub. Also a $200,000 candy room, a 2,500-bottle wine cellar with cases of Dom Perignon, and an art installation featuring a chrome machine gun.

Property Description

Crowning the top of Hillcrest Road, the Trousdale Estates street many call Beverly Hills’ Billionaire’s Row, this approximately 22,300-square-foot estate sits on nearly one acre with panoramic views sweeping from Downtown Los Angeles to the Pacific Ocean. Built by renowned developer Bruce Makowsky, the residence spans two expansive levels connected by a private elevator, with 8 bedrooms and 15 bathrooms. The primary suite is a retreat of its own, with city-light views from the bed and a private pool overlooking the Los Angeles basin. The current owner has elevated the estate into a true entertainment destination, adding a multimillion-dollar professional recording studio with a separate drum room, along with a fully built private nightclub featuring a professional DJ booth, dance floor, bar, custom lighting, and a club-grade sound system. From intimate gatherings to full-scale celebrations, the experience never requires leaving home. Further enhancements include renovated lower-level bathrooms and a dedicated on-site security office, complemented by staff quarters for discretion and support at every level. A wine cellar completes the offering. Meticulously maintained throughout and available furnished or unfurnished, this is a rare opportunity to own a landmark residence at one of Beverly Hills’ most celebrated addresses.
