Mike Love has lost that California Feelin’, and has put his 8,995 square foot mansion up on the market in Pebble Beach, CA. Love’s reasons for cutting ties? He and his wife, Jacqueline, are now empty nesters, and are looking to downsize.
The bright Mediterranean mansion was first listed in 2009 for around $7 million, but recently experienced a 12% price slash and is now back on the market with the slimmer tag of just under $6 million. The residence is still a catch, though. ‘Soulful Old Man Sunshine’ pours through the many windows into a classy, honey-colored interior that is floored with blonde wood and accented with hand-painted murals. Aside from the high-ceilinged living room and gourmet kitchen, the floor plan also boasts a wine cellar, game room, exercise room, theatre and five fireplaces.
The outdoor living areas are just as luxurious: ‘Take A Load Off Your Feet’ on the spacious flagstone patio, where an outdoor kitchen and Nuvo sound system create a great entertaining space. The home’s guest apartment will put up the occasional ‘Passing Friend’.
Mike Love was one of the founding members of the popular 1960s group The Beach Boys, whose numerous Top 40 Hits included ‘Surfin’ USA’ and ‘Help Me Rhonda’. In 1988, The Beach Boys were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and were awarded the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2001. Apart from The Beach Boys, Love also released a solo album (1981’s ‘Looking Back With Love’) and cowrote a Top 30 Hit Single, ‘Almost Summer’.
