Burger exec’s home is back on menu
In-N-Out heiress lists her four-acre San Gabriel Valley estate for $16.8 million.
A house bought with burger money is back up for grabs in Bradbury. In-N-Out heiress Lynsi Snyder, whose grandparents founded the beloved fast-food chain, listed her amenity-loaded mansion for sale at $16.8 million.
The Mediterranean-style retreat spans four acres in Bradbury Estates, a guard-gated community just a few miles north of Baldwin Park — where Snyder’s grandparents Harry and Esther Snyder opened the first In-N-Out Burger in 1948.
Snyder bought the place from former Dodgers star Adrián Beltré for $17.41 million in 2012, records show. At $16.8 million, it’s the priciest property on the market in the San Gabriel Valley city.
The estate offers a world of its own with two homes that combine for more than 18,000 square feet, as well as a 3,400-square-foot recreation center, two-hole golf course, tennis court, basketball court, infinity-edge pool and cabana set among vineyards and fruit trees. Manicured gardens and a motor court approach the portico entry of the main house.
Inside are 11 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, a wine cellar, tasting room, billiards room, movie theater and gym. A voluminous foyer with dual staircases kicks things off, leading to chandelier-topped spaces such as a formal living room, formal dining room, indoor-outdoor great room and double-island kitchen.
A native of Glendora, Snyder is president and owner of In-N-Out Burger, which has 358 locations across California and the Southwest. Forbes puts her net worth at $3.6 billion.
It’s not the first time Snyder has tried to sell the home. She offered it up at $19.8 million in 2017, records show.

Rock legend looks to leave the Valley
John Fogerty has put in the work, and now he’s looking to cash out in Encino. After a dramatic remodel, the Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman has listed his 9,000-square-foot house in the San Fernando Valley for $9 million.
Fogerty, the Berkeley native who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with hits such as “Proud Mary” and “Fortunate Son,” bought the property three years ago for $6.75 million from Michael Sugar, the film and TV producer behind “Spotlight” and “13 Reasons Why.” One could be forgiven for not recognizing it, though, as Fogerty changed just about everything during his stay.
Built in 2016 as a traditional-style spot with light shades of blue on the outside and neutral tones inside, the home now sports a striking exterior of shingles and stained wood. A portico entry of glass and steel leads inside.
Fogerty loaded the living spaces with lumber; wood lines floors, walls and ceilings in the kitchen, dining room and the indoor-outdoor family room, which has a built-in fireplace. He added shades of black in the living room and movie theater and blue in the lounge, where there’s a wet bar.
Elsewhere are six bedrooms and eight bathrooms across two stories. A frontfacing terrace takes in views of the neighborhood, and a rooftop deck overlooks a backyard with a fountain-fed swimming pool and spa surrounded by dense landscaping and a turf lawn.
Fogerty, 75, co-founded Creedence Clearwater Revival in the 1960s. The prolific rock band released seven albums from 1968 to 1972, with hits including “Bad Moon Rising,” “Green River” and “Down on the Corner.” He has enjoyed a successful solo career in the decades since, and last year he put out “Fogerty’s Factory,” an album he recorded during the pandemic.

NBA star cashes out with Vegas mansion
There’s big, and then there’s DeMarcus Cousins’ house in Las Vegas. The NBA star sold his 20,000square-foot Sin City showplace for $7.5 million, or half a million shy of what he was asking for it last year.
Cousins, who spent most of his basketball career with the Sacramento Kings, paid $6.5 million for the vaguely Mediterranean mansion four years ago. The estate reached its peak value a year before the 2008 market crash, selling for $12 million in 2007, records show.
An ideal landing spot for the four-time all-star, the custom residence is jampacked with amenities including a full-size indoor basketball court and gym.
There’s also a movie theater, billiards room, wet bar, sports media room and backyard with a resort-style swimming pool and spa with waterfalls.
Found a few miles from the Las Vegas Strip, the gated compound covers about two acres. A motor court approaches the 12-car garage. Towering columns line the porte-cochere entry and continue inside, where a foyer with inlaid floors leads to palatial spaces such as a two-story living room, kitchen with a curved island and family room with a fireplace and fish tank.
An elevator navigates the two-story floor plan, ascending to a primary suite with a private deck overlooking the grounds. Including the guesthouse, there are 10 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms.
Nicknamed Boogie, Cousins spent a year at Kentucky before declaring for the 2010 NBA draft, in which he was selected by the Sacramento Kings.
He spent seven seasons with the team before stints with the Pelicans, Warriors and Rockets. Currently a free agent, the 30-year-old also won a gold medal representing the U.S. at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

Actor sells digs in Hollywood Hills
Walton Goggins had no trouble cutting loose from his 94-year-old haunt just above Hollywood Boulevard. Records show the actor of “Justified” and “The Unicorn” sold the English country-style spot for $3.665 million, a whopping $315,000 more than he was asking.
It took him two weeks to find a buyer for the home, which he bought for $1.55 million in 2010 from Radames Pera, star of the 1970s martial arts series “Kung Fu.”
It’s the latest profitable deal to go down in the Hollywood Hills, which is quickly becoming a seller’s market. So far in March, 20 of the 51 homes that have traded hands in the scenic neighborhood sold for over the asking price, including Diplo’s house and Harry Gesner’s 1950s “boathouse.”
Goggins restored the estate during his stay, adding a modern marble kitchen to go along with period details such as tile floors, arched doorways, vintage chandeliers and walls of built-ins. A dramatic wood door enters the 3,240-square-foot floor plan full of Old Hollywood charm.
Elsewhere are five bedrooms, three bathrooms, an office, breakfast nook and living room with beamed ceilings. Gardens and citrus trees spruce up an entertainer’s backyard with a swimming pool, fire pit and dining area.
A native of Alabama, Goggins has been acting for three decades with standout roles in “The Shield,” “Sons of Anarchy” and the Quentin Tarantino films “Django Unchained” and “The Hateful Eight.” More recently, the 49-year-old starred alongside Danny McBride in the HBO shows “Vice Principals” and “The Righteous Gemstones.”

DJ nets nearly $400,000 on home
Diplo’s Hollywood Hills home was a hit. After listing the four-story perch for $2.695 million last month, he sold the place for $2.805 million, finding a buyer in five days.
The Grammy-winning DJ, whose real name is Thomas Pentz, swapped scenic views for space late last year, buying Kid Rock’s Balinese-inspired mansion on 1.5 acres in Malibu for $13.15 million in October.
This place is a bit cozier at 2,500 square feet, but it boasts terraces, decks and patios across the floor plan to take advantage of the hillside setting. Up top, a penthouse suite with walls of glass features a lounge, spa bathroom and private balcony.
The lower levels hold living spaces including a modern kitchen, indoor-outdoor dining room and gallery-like great room with vast white walls and a fireplace.
Down below, there’s a yoga retreat, outdoor meditation space and recording studio with professional sound proofing. A courtyard under string lights overlooks the city below.
Diplo made nearly $400,000 on the deal. Records show he bought the property for $2.425 million in 2016.
In addition to his solo work, Diplo is known for his electronic projects Major Lazer and Jack Ü. The 42year-old has collaborated with Gwen Stefani, Britney Spears, Madonna, Justin Bieber and Usher and has racked up three Grammys since 2016 with hits that include “Heartless,” “Electricity” and “Where Are Ü Now.”
