Pop superstar Meghan Trainor has recently placed her Encino manse on the market for $11,995,000. Located just over the Mulholland Drive crest in a celebrity-filled enclave, the fully customized estate showcases a blend of modern design and contemporary comforts, offering a unique glimpse into the lifestyle of one of the music industry’s biggest names.
Set on over an acre of sprawling property, this impressive estate features a total of six bedrooms and eight full bathrooms, encompassing more than 14,000 square feet between the main residence and a separate guest house. Clad in a seamless white facade with black-framed windows and dark accents, the home has a timeless yet modern aesthetic. The interior, designed for both grandeur and comfort, features an open-concept floor plan that seamlessly connects the various living and dining areas. Immediately upon entry, the home’s double-height foyer with a curved double staircase sets the tone for the splendor that lies beyond.
Pops of matte black can be seen across fireplace mantles, steel railings, and framed doorways, breaking up the crisp white theme. The plush living areas, both formal and informal, feature gleaming chandeliers and expansive windows that flood the spaces with natural light. The white-washed kitchen anchors the home with chic waterfall stone countertops and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances.
The master suite is truly its own oasis within an oasis, privately tucked away yet grand in scale. A romantic fireplace and sliding glass doors to a serene balcony add to the allure, while the alabaster ensuite bathroom includes dual vanities, an impressive standalone soaking tub wrapped in stone, and an eye-catching black-marble walk-in shower.
As a nod to the owner, entertainment also plays an integral role in the abode, with a state-of-the-art recording studio, resort-style pool and spa with soothing waterfalls and waterslide, full outdoor basketball court, wide-ranging turf lawn, separate putting green, in-ground trampoline, and impressive children’s playground.
Rounding out the main residence is a third-floor playroom with a homeschooling setup, as well as smart home technology for the integrated lighting, security systems, and climate controls, offering both peace of mind and efficiency. The separate guest home is ideal for hosting or use as a dedicated office space, with a fully equipped gym and bathroom on the main level and guest quarters above, comprising a living room, bedroom, full kitchen, full bath, and laundry facilities.
Trainor rose to fame with her 2014 debut single “All About That Bass,” which topped the Billboard Hot 100 charts, almost instantaneously becoming a global hit. Since her atmospheric rise, Trainor has released subsequent hit songs, including “Lips Are Movin” and “Like I’m Gonna Lose You,” showcasing her versatility and staying power as a pop music artist. In addition to her musical endeavors and successful career, Trainor has been seen as a judge on numerous reality TV shows such as The Four: Battle for Stardom and The Voice UK.
Encino has become known within Los Angeles for its upscale residences on impressive plots of land with ease of access to the rest of the city, drawing many within the entertainment industry to reside within the exclusive neighborhood. Trainor, who recently paid $17 million for DJ Zedd’s Jae Omar-designed modern farmhouse, is a mere stone’s throw away from this residence.
