Carey cuts ties in Bel-Air

- LAUREN BEALE

The marital home of singing superstar Mariah Carey and her estranged husband, Nick Cannon, has sold in Bel-Air for $9 million.

The gated estate centers on a Hamptons-vibe mansion with French doors, black shutters and a red front door.

A music studio, a basketball court, a gym, a home theater, seven fireplaces, seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms are included in 13,000 square feet of renovated interior space.

A giant hall with vaulted beamed ceilings and walls of windows has room for several hundred guests.

The grounds include a putting green, a swimming

pool, a spa, parking for more than 20 vehicles and room for a tennis court. There are canyon, city, mountain and ocean views.

Former “Charlie’s Angels” star Farrah Fawcett owned the three-acre property for more than 20 years before selling in 1999 for close to $2.7 million to recording studio executive Allen Sides.

He rebuilt and expanded the Traditiona­l-style house, then sold to Carey and Cannon about six years ago for $6.975 million.

Carey, known for her extensive vocal range, has received five Grammy Awards. Among her awardwinni­ng work is the album “The Emancipati­on of Mimi” and a 1990 recognitio­n as best new artist.

Cannon has written for several television shows bearing his name as well as “Incredible Crew” (2012-13). He has hosted his own shows and “America’s Got Talent” (2009-13).

They separated last year and have filed for divorce, according to multiple media reports.

Paul Czako of Gussman Czako Estates was the listing agent. Ardavan Mofid of Coldwell Banker represente­d the buyer.
