Kathy & Rick Hilton take a bath on Bel Air roadside estate.

Listed for $55 million, sold for $25 million. At least the new owner can reach out of his window and grab the mail.

The exterior looks so sterile. No charm whatsoever.

The interior is quite nice.

It's ugly, and it somehow manages to have the vibe of being prefabricated.

419 St. Cloud Road, Bel Air

The decorative shutters are terrible. All that money and they couldn't get the proportions correct. The bedroom floor windows are undersize and that might work, but the shutters should then be fully functional, even if they will need be used. Or maybe they should have stuck to their guns and stripped it all down to no surface decoration at all.

Why is there no retractable awning over the upper patio - with the outdoor dining table and barbecue? Sitting there would be a blinding whiteout and insufferable.

The black iron railings are good and minimal, but the white newel posts in "stone" - plastic? styrofoam? cement? You can see the seam.

Why is the screen room in light greige?

l see the minimal elegant Neo-classic aesthetic hoped for, but the massing is off.

It seems like a corporate rental.

More pics of the interior. I like the blue kitchen cabinets.

I like how the listing boasts "interiors by Kathy Hilton" as if that's a selling point. Although I won't lie, I more or less like the interior. But why with all of that backyard space did they place the front of the house so close to the street!? I'm no expert but I can't imagine anyone's gonna pay $55 million for a house 10ft from the street. You'd think Rick would've realized that, being a high end realtor and all.

Also I just noticed Barron Hilton was the listing agent? I didn't even know he worked.

The outside looks like a generic ‘70s SFV apt. building. A large one, but totally bland and unappealing. .

I believe this is the house before.

The kept the old pool house.

Those two are what is colloquially known as "white trash with money". They are Kardashian lites.

THEY STOLE MY GODDAMN HOUSE!

It does look like the old fashioned celebrity mansions they built back in the 30s-50s, most of which have been torn down or vastly renovated and restyled. Plain as dishwater.

The exteriors at R14 are significantly nicer than what the Hiltons built.

R4 could have been designed by a 14 year old.

I hate the lamps over the dining room table.

This crib is on the same street as the old Ronald Reagan residence, and just blocks from the Beverly Hillbillies estate (the Chartwell mansion-formerly known as the Kirkeby mansion). Definitely prime Bel Air.

I love that the guy who bought it has a net worth of $6 billion and still bothered to talk them down to $25 million.

She also took a bath 🛀 on all the plastic surgery she had done on her face- and the end result has not been favorable.

This house is the epitome of a MCMANSION- it’s ugly of course and FAR too big for the property- it’s extremely tacky to be right on top of the road like that.

R22- That guy who bought the house was likely a PEASANT- hence the cheapness when buying the house and the lack of taste to actually like the house.

In China.

They sold it to some oriental foreign billionaire.

Greedy sellouts keep giving away our American land to those people.

1%ers like the Hiltons don't care if they give away our country to foreigners.

All they care about is money.

Pretty soon, china will own the entire west coast, and rents will be $10,000 for a 1 bedroom apartment.

Don't even think about buying, because they won't sell to Americans.

R27, wise rich people don't throw their money away and re always looking for the lowest price and a bargain. That is how they are rich. [See Warren Buffett.]

A chinese billionaire with fake printed worthless chinese money isn't wise, R30.

They're just a chinese billionaire with fake printed worthless money looking to launder it through American real estate.
