In the 1990s, minem rose from the streets to superstardom, and his millionaire-caliber residences followed. The home that Marshall Mathers, an artist, and his mainly adult 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren have termed their “main mansion” for more than 20 years. This 8,900 square foot brown-brick property, according to Velvet Ropes, sold for $1.48 million in 2000 at the height of the rapper’s fɑme.

Eminem’s present residence is extremely private, hasn’t been seen in many photos, and hasn’t left much of a digital trɑce because it was bought so long ago. For the benefit of fans, the famous rapper once owned another house that has lately been put up for sale, allowing us to have a peak inside.

The “Slim Shady” rapper paid $4.8 million for a Rochester Hills house in 2003, but later sold it for a steep discount, offering the extravagant mansion for just under $2 million in 2017 (according the Detroit Free Press). This 17,500-square-foot mansion has recently been relisted on the market and is now selling for a further discount at $1.9 million, similar to these celebrities who sold their homes for far less than they paid for them.

A description of Eminem’s previous getaway

Eminem’s sources initially referred to the property as a secondary residence rather than a primary residence when it was advertised for sale. According to the Detroit Free Press’s description of the property at the time, the real estate company shared a “SPECTACULAR gated estate on nearly 6 acres with guard house” where “every bedroom is a suite!” Rich, dark, rose-colored wood dominates the interior, with built-in ceiling decorations, a handmade bar, and elaborate metal work on a huge fireplace adjacent.

The opulent property apparently has “rare-wood paneling” and a “two-story, 1,500 square foot entertainment room” (according to The New York Times). We can see further elements on the Zillow listing, such as the circular road leading to the grand entry and a casual tennis court with a lovely pergola or pavilion. Amazing amenities include the swimming pool, pool house, and clubhouse, where homeowners can relax in the hot  tub and wander through the verdant, nearby woodlands. The property was constructed in 1994 and has five garage spots on 5.69 acres.

Bedroom suites in Eminem’s former home

According to Century 21 listing agents, the home has six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and three half bathrooms. According to reports, each bedroom has a different “theme,” and the home is outfitted with “state-of-the-art electronics, audio, visual, and lighting systems.” Additionally, the house is located in a secure gated community. Remember to take advantage of the three-story lift, the butler’s pantry, and the waterfall that connects the hot  tub and pool.

A comfortable-sized urban apartment with all the amenities might be made from just the bathrooms, according to a deeper examination of the bedroom suites. What, though, was from Eminem’s time there and what was from the more recent occupant?

The bathrooms and kitchen’s sleek designs and neutral hues, we surmise, best reflect Eminem’s time there. Why? In April 2020, The Sun provides a sneak peek into the current mansion (through his daughter, Haile Jade Mathers), which features spotless, light-colored interiors. We also catch a glimpse of a black fireplace that is encircled by cream tile and numerous mirrors. A gray wall that resembles tile, cream rugs, and grey window coverings that easily match this former bedroom suite are some of the other more neutral aspects.

For only $3,225,000, you can live like Eminem.

Every home seller uses the kitchen as a selling element, and this palatial kitchen is every cook’s fantasy. Along with two huge refrigerators and island seats, the spacious wine fridge is available. This continues the inlaid wood and white with dark stone countertop features themes from the previous home. While there is plenty of natural light provided by the rounded multi-pane windows, there is also a butler’s pantry outside this picture.

Although this home is lovely, there is a notion that it may not have the finest karma. According to The New York Times, the mansion’s previous owners had trouble with the law. Charles Conaway, who served as Kmart’s previous chairman and chief executive during the brand’s decline and was ordered to pay the SEC $5.5 million in restitution for deceiving investors, sold the property to Eminem.

Conaway bought the mansion from Rick Bellestri, a toolmaker who was convicted of tax fraud and racketeering and sentenced to five years in prison. There have been some price disappointments because Eminem himself lost over $2 million on this property (albeit happily he has stayed on the right side of the law). Since 2020, the property has been listed and taken off the market numerous times; according to Zillow, the price gradually decreased from $3.75 million to $3.25 million.
