Because he wanted to live privately, Frank Ocean secretly bought a majestic villa in Malibu to stay away from news-hunting journalists

Some celebrities thrive in the spotlight, while others, like the enigmatic Frank Ocean and the elusive Robert Pattinson, prefer to keep a low profile and safeguard their privacy.

Despite their efforts to remain hidden from the paparazzi, we’ve managed to catch a glimpse inside their homes. Click or scroll to explore the concealed sanctuaries of these elusive stars.

Frank Ocean, the immensely talented rapper and singer-songwriter celebrated for his distinctive sound and introspective lyrics, is famously private. Boasting a net worth of $13 million, this Long Beach, California native currently resides in a secret location. The question is, where does this solitude-seeking artist call home?

Ocean’s Malibu residence is dubbed “clandestine” by Dirt, as it stayed unreported for two years after his discreet purchase in 2017. The secretive star invested $6.4 million in a ranch-style mid-century home nestled on a 1.5-acre property along a discreet private road above Carbon Beach, California.

Spanning 2,802 square feet of sun-filled living space, the five-bedroom home provides breathtaking white-water ocean views through its large floor-to-ceiling glass sliders and terrace. Notably, the waterfront property hadn’t been listed for over 50 years before Ocean acquired his private retreat.

Originally constructed in 1955, the previous owners reportedly rented the home to Real Housewives of New Jersey star Dina Manzo for $10,500 per month for a year just before hitting the market in 2017.

The primary suite, facing the Pacific Ocean, features a cozy fireplace, while other amenities include an indoor hot tub and a spacious walk-in closet for the Pyramids singer.

Situated on 1.5 acres in the heart of Malibu, the estate also includes a guest house with a children’s play area and fruit trees. Additionally, active pursuits can be enjoyed on a full tennis court with lights and an in-ground basketball area. While the enigmatic singer may not keep us updated on interior changes, aerial shots at the time revealed significant renovations on the property. Stay tuned for updates on this captivating hideaway.
