Blabbermouth — Gene Simmons and his wife Shannon Lee Tweed Simmons recently gave Entertainment Tonight a tour of their Los Angeles mansion, which is on the market for $25 million.
Simmons has been very vocal about his desire to leave
California for some time due to wanting a quieter lifestyle and to get
away from being listed on celebrity maps or having to deal with
Beverly
Hills tour buses. He also said that part of the reason he and his wife
listed the two-acre property in Benedict Canyon because the home had
become too big for the both of them since their children had grown up.
“It’s a big property, and the kids were literally raised here,” he
said. “Now they’ve moved on, and they both have their own homes next to
each other in the Hollywood Hills. They borrow a cup of sugar and all
that. They love each other and support each other like the best kids you
could imagine.”
“They’ve got their own lives, and now we’ve got this big
house. And if I want to talk to Shannon,
I’ve got to hit an intercom because she’s at the other end of the
house,” he continued. “It’s happy and it’s also sad. When you’re a kid
and you live at home, you love your mom and dad, but at some point
you’ve got to move out. It’s sad because you’re moving from home, but
you’re also looking forward to the future, and we really hope the next
family that lives here is going to get as much joy as we have from this
place.”
Last fall, Simmons put the Beverly Hills house on the market
for $22 million. He later relisted it for $25 million after it never
sold and he reportedly invested a lot of money in making improvements.
