Xzibit, the rapper and former “Pimp My Ride” host, has put his San Fernando Valley-view home in upscale Porter Ranch on the market for $3.85 million.
The five-bedroom, 5,710-square-foot home with six bathrooms has a Mediterranean villa-style exterior and a contemporary interior. Glass walls disappear, extending the indoors outside on this quarter-acre lot in guard-gated Westcliffe.
Records show the rapper and actor, born Alvin Nathaniel Joiner in Detroit, bought the property in January 2017 for $2.436 million.
Completed in 2016, the home’s foyer leads to a floating staircase that climbs over a glass-enclosed, temperature-controlled wine room.
A combined family and dining room open to a gourmet kitchen, which features a large center island with breakfast bar seating, high-end appliances and a separate prep kitchen.
Upstairs is an additional lounge space.
The primary suite has a double-sided fireplace that separates the bedroom from the seating area. There’s a soaking tub under a window in the bathroom and a private view deck for taking in the views.
