The singer of ‘Dynamite’ Taio Cruz, resides in seclusion in a residence in Beverly Hills that features a cutting-edge recording studio

You may not be familiar with the English musician who is selling this contemporary Beverly Hills retreat, but the opulent recording studio in this newly listed residence provides an indication. Who is this elusive individual? For $8.5 million, vocalist, composer, lyricist, and record producer Taio Cruz is selling this exquisite property.

This Beverly Hills Post Office neighborhood near Benedict Canyon, where the median list price is $7.17, appears pricey at $1,494 per square foot. Cruz acquired the 1950s residence for $4.05 million in 2012, notwithstanding its 1995 renovation and subsequent enhancements.

The performer, who is 35 years old, has amassed more than $12.5 million. His personal investments include an enormous designer showcase wardrobe and a “to-for” master suite, in addition to a clothing and accessory line and a record label.

The mansion is situated behind gates on an expansive, wooded half-acre property at the end of a long, winding path, and is outfitted with the most advanced security and surveillance systems in order to accommodate the celebrity’s desire for seclusion.

A luxurious, well-lit living area spanning more than 5,000 square feet, featuring breathtaking canyon views, is concealed behind the entrance’s floor-to-ceiling glass doors. A contemporary professional chef’s kitchen with a large marble-topped island and high-end appliances is situated on the first floor. Additionally, there is a generous family room with stone fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and walls of sliding glass doors that effortlessly lead to an outdoor lounging area. A entire wing contains an office and a guest suite.

An glass staircase with a bamboo forest view adorns the opulent master retreat. It features a sitting area, private balcony, walk-in closet that exceeds those found in the finest department stores, spa-inspired bathroom with reclaimed wood finishes, dual vanities, a tranquil soaking tub, and a rainforest shower, and occupies the entire second floor.

A resort-inspired backyard featuring an infinity pool, jacuzzi, and lovely cabana, as well as a massage room, mirrored gym, soundproof music studio with an outdoor access door, and a deluxe movie room/lounge equipped with a completely integrated sound system, are among the amenities provided.
