LA actor lists luxe home with an unusual bonus

Tyrese Gibson, one of the stars of Transformers, has relisted his LA home that comes with its own unique resident.

With a listing price of $NZD 4.25 million ($USD 2.9 million), movie fans will be intrigued to find out that it comes with a replica Transformer.

After it was first listed in April for $NZD 5 million, a lack of offers saw the price drop by 17 percent.

The home has also been taken over by a new listing agent, Jason Oppenheim, who is featured on the Netflix reality show Selling Sunset.

Since he purchased the home in 2011 for $NZD 1.45 million, Gibson has added some personal touches throughout the seven-bedroom house.

Top features include a gourmet kitchen with a built-in breakfast bar and custom cabinetry, as well as an upstairs main bedroom equipped with its own fireplace and bathroom with a steam shower and soaking tub.

In addition to the four bedroom suites and seven bathrooms, the home includes a movie theatre, a grand foyer, a formal living room, and an office.

Outside, the property features a pool, outdoor fireplace, kitchen and bar, and an outdoor cinema.

A replica Bumblebee transformer stands guard over the backyard and can be purchased with the home.

With its new, discounted price, the home has been described in the listing as “the best deal in Woodland Hills”.

Gibson, who has appeared in the Fast and Furious franchise and topped the Billboard chart with his music, has been a longtime resident of the area.
