The Los Angeles Playboy mansion has been sold for just $100 million. The famed mansion which belongs to the founder and owner of playboy Enterprises Hugh Hefner who is already 90 year old will live in the mansion for the rest of his life, a representative for the buyer said on Tuesday.

                               

The property was bought by Daren Metropoulos for about 76 million pounds which was half of the price it was initially listed for earlier this year.

The property, which was purchased by Playboy in 1971 for a reported $1.1 million, sits amid 5 acres (2 hectares) in Holmby Hills, west of Los Angeles, and includes 29 rooms, a tennis court and a free-form swimming pool - and has a zoo license.

The mansion is home to the famous Playboy grotto, which over the years served as the setting for some of Hefner's most lavish, hedonistic parties, models, porn stars.
