KEEP UP WITH KIM AND KO.

-

If you’re fan of Keeping Up with the Kardashian­s and their spray-tanned exploits then you’ll be familiar with Palazzo Dei Sogni.

It’s served as the fictitious home of the reality TV show family for 10 seasons, most often being used as the façade and gardens of their altered world.

The property was built in 1983 and was modelled on a historic Italian Medici-era castle in Florence.

It’s within the Fryman Estate community in the Los Angeles suburb of Studio City in the Hollywood Hills and has real-life celebritie­s living next door including George Clooney, Miley Cyrus and Bruno Mars.

Palazzo Dei Sogni, which fittingly translates as ‘palace of dreams’ in Italian, has seven bedrooms, eight bathrooms, an acre of grounds and has featured in other US TV shows including True Blood, Entourage and Rome.

The property groans with expensive fixtures and fittings including ornate woodwork, Venetian plastered walls and ceilings and murals by artist Giorgio Tuscani.

As much beloved by wealthy Americans, there are 17th-century chandelier­s in almost every room, wall-mounted candle holders imported from an Opera House in Paris and an antique stone fountain at the front.

Public areas of the mansion include a two-story foyer, formal living and dining, man cave, a movie theatre room with a 12ft screen, a billiards room, and a 2,000-bottle wine cellar.

The property is for sale at $8.895m with agent Robert E. Howell of Keller Williams Beverly Hills. More informatio­n from TopTenReal­EstateDeal­s.com
