Celebrity homes for sale: Rachel Sweet


Follow my new series Celebrity Homes for sale over the next couple of weeks!

Singer Rachel Sweet has placed her 6,205-square-foot mansion Los Pavoreales in Los Angeles’ Los Feliz area on the market for $9,995,000. In addition to being designed by architect Wallace Neff, the mansion has previously been owned by Madonna, Jenna Elfman and Katey Sagal.

The house hit the MLS on July 6.

Built in 1926, the five-bedroom house has five and a half baths, a master bedroom with a period bathroom, two junior bedroom suites and a family room. Outdoor features on the 1.81-acre property include rolling lawns, a playhouse, an ascending garden with spectacular city views, a large motor court, a long private drive, and a detached guest house with two bedrooms, two baths and a kitchen.

Obviously, Sweet is not as well known as the mansion’s prior owners. Records show that Sweet and her writer-producer husband, Tom Palmer, purchased the house in 2005 from Sagal for $5,510,000. Sagal had purchased the house in 2004 from Elfman for $4,700,000, and Elfman had purchased it from Madonna in 2000 for about $4 million, according to public records and news accounts. Madonna appears to have purchased the house in 1995.
