The Los Angeles estate of music industry titan Quincy Jones has become available for sale for just under $60 million, following his passing at the age of 91. The property is being listed by a brokerage firm, as indicated in a press release.

Perched on a gated promontory in the Lower Bel Air neighborhood, the 2-acre compound had served as Jones’s primary residence since 2002.

Quincy Jones, a 28-time Grammy winner, originally purchased the land in 1972 for $200,000. Later, he collaborated with a high school friend who is also an architect to construct a personalized estate over the course of several decades. This information was detailed by the Wall Street Journal, the first source to report on the property listing.

Rashida Jones, an actress and filmmaker who is one of Quincy Jones’ daughters, expressed her sentiments about the estate in a statement from the press release. She mentioned how much her father cherished his home, a place he meticulously fashioned from the ground up with the creative vision he was renowned for and the expertise of his longtime friend and acclaimed architect, Jerry Allison.

Spanning nearly 25,000 square feet, the home includes five bedrooms and 17 bathrooms across three interconnected wings, accessible via staircases and an elevator.

A circular living room with a vaulted dome ceiling serves as the central hub of the residence.

Other features include a wine room, a tasting area, a game lounge and multiple bar setups.

The primary suite offers a private balcony, a gym, a den and expansive closets, while the west wing contains guest quarters, a recording studio, a screening room and a gallery.

Outside, the grounds feature a lighted tennis court, an infinity pool with a spa, and various verandas and terraces oriented toward panoramic views of the city skyline, the mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

Jones, a native of Chicago, rose to fame as a jazz trumpeter before becoming one of the most influential producers of the 20th century.

His decades-long career included chart-topping hits such as Lesley Gore’s “It’s My Party” and the star-studded charity anthem “We Are the World.” He also produced Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” the best-selling album of all time.

“Our family has a lifetime’s worth of wonderful memories and meaning imbued in this home,” Jones said.

“We hope the new owner will continue the legacy of love and laughter and beauty that is synonymous with the name Quincy Jones.”

The listing is held by David Kramer and Andrew Buss of the David Kramer Group at Compass.

“There are homes built for spec, and others that seem to trade hands often — but then there are homes like this, which almost never come to market.” Kramer said. “It’s truly special.”
