“This is the scene from my patio,” Perry captioned a picture he posted to Instagram in May. “No masks, one foot apart. This is the thing that makes want to scream. Until I remember that I have a kickass Malibu house.”
Now he’s giving the opportunity to let someone else like the ‘kickass’ Malibu lifestyle.

The 510 sqm home in an enclave west of Los Angeles boasts a secured front gate and covered entry corridor.
A loft-like, open-format house has a steel-and-wood floating staircase, exposed ceiling beams and floor-to-ceiling windows.
The two-storey Pacific Ocean-facing property has four bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, custom wardrobes, a galley kitchen with commercial-style appliances and a private sitting room, which is where, in April, Perry baked cookies while nude (which he also posted about on Instagram).

The beachfront pad also boasts some cool celebrity-style amenities: a designer ping-pong table, two balconies (one with a fire pit), a home theatre and a hot tub in a wood-decked courtyard shielded for privacy by opaque screens.

Perry, 51, quietly purchased the property from LA developer Scott Gillen — who had rebuilt the beach mansion roughly 10 years prior — in an off-market deal in 2011, when it was valued at $US12 million, according to Mansion Global.
The actor is also trying to offload his 865 sqm decadently decorated Los Angeles penthouse. It listed last August for US$35 million, a price tag that made it the city’s most expensive condo for sale.
The price has since been chopped to US$27 million, according to Realtor.com.

That freshly renovated property also has a home theatre, as well as four bedrooms and four terraces. Perry bought the property, touted in the listing a “mansion in the sky,” for $20 million in 2017.
A source told Mansion Global that both listings are motivated by Perry’s desire to spend more time in New York City.
