Editor’s note — 7 November 2026: This article has been fully rewritten using only verifiable facts from reputable reporting. Several claims from the earlier version have been corrected: the Beverly Park mansion is 18,587 square feet, not 21,000; the 13,241 square feet at Palm Beach is the total living space across the whole compound, not the main house alone; the Palm Beach water frontage is 253 feet, not 250; and the Hidden Hills house was bought in 2022 for $18.15 million and sold in October 2023 to John Fogerty for $17.2 million — it was not sold in 2022 for $18 million. Claims that could not be verified have been removed, including a $400 million net worth figure, a “Lakeside Retreat” in Thousand Oaks said to have sold in 2011, invented Palm Beach amenities (home gym, home theatre, wine cellar, infinity-edge pool, outdoor kitchen and private dock) and an invented “Personal House Touches” section. The Miami sale has been corrected to the Coconut Grove home sold in 1999 for $16 million, and Stallone’s age has been updated — he turned 80 in July 2026.
Sylvester Stallone House is a story of a Hollywood career measured in property: a custom-built Beverly Hills mansion sold to Adele, a Palm Beach waterfront compound bought for $35.38 million, a Hidden Hills ranch flipped to a rock star, and a desert villa sold at a loss. At 80, the Rocky and Rambo star has left California behind for good and made Palm Beach, Florida, his permanent home with his wife, Jennifer Flavin. This is the full, verified story of where Sylvester Stallone lives now — and the homes he has owned along the way.
Who Is Sylvester Stallone?
Michael Sylvester Gardenzio Stallone was born on 6 July 1946 in Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. Complications at birth left him with partial paralysis in the lower left side of his face — the slight slur and crooked smile that became his trademark. He spent part of his teenage years in Maryland, studied drama at the University of Miami, and then chased acting work in New York, where for a time he was so broke he famously sold his dog, Butkus, for $25 — and bought him back for $15,000 after Rocky made him a star.
Rocky, which he wrote and starred in, was released in 1976 and won the Academy Award for Best Picture; Stallone himself was nominated for Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay. He went on to build two of the most durable franchises in film history, Rocky and Rambo, and in 2015 he won a Golden Globe and earned a third Oscar nomination for Creed. More recently he has starred in the Paramount+ series Tulsa King (from 2022) and in the reality series The Family Stallone (from 2023), and he returned for The Expendables 4 in 2023. He married Jennifer Flavin in 1997; they have three daughters, Sophia, Sistine and Scarlet. He also had two sons: Sage, who died in 2012 aged 36, and Seargeoh, born in 1979.
Where Does Sylvester Stallone Live Now?
Sylvester Stallone lives in Palm Beach, Florida, at 1480 N. Lake Way, a lakefront compound on the North End of the island that he bought in December 2020 for $35.375 million. He and Jennifer Flavin confirmed on the second season of The Family Stallone in 2024 that they had left California for good and made Palm Beach their permanent home. The move followed the sale of his Beverly Hills mansion to Adele and the sale of his Hidden Hills ranch — the two big California exits that closed his Los Angeles chapter.
The Palm Beach Mansion: His $35.38M Main Home
Stallone bought the Palm Beach estate through the Southpaw Trust in a sale recorded on 16 December 2020, paying $35.375 million — a price the Palm Beach Daily News confirmed at the time. The sellers, Ronald and Cindy McMackin, had paid $26.65 million for the property in September 2018 and had it listed at $37.85 million. The purchase was financed with a $15 million, 30-year mortgage.
The compound sits on 1.5 acres at 1480 N. Lake Way, on the far North End of Palm Beach, with 253 feet of frontage on Lake Worth Lagoon and the Intracoastal Waterway, a sandy beach beyond the seawall and a dock. The Bermuda-style estate was completed in 2014, designed by architect Tom Benedict and built by RWB Construction. It comprises a two-storey main residence, a separate two-storey guesthouse and a pool pavilion, with seven bedrooms and 13,241 square feet of living space in total across the property, inside and out.
The Stallones have made the estate their own since buying it. In 2021 they won approval from the Palm Beach Architectural Commission for a new solid-wood driveway gate to improve privacy, along with an extensive interior renovation. And in December 2024 Stallone applied to install a seaweed barrier extending 191 feet from his dock to keep seaweed and debris off his beach — then withdrew the plan the same month after local opposition.

Beverly Park: The $58M Mansion Sold to Adele
For nearly three decades, Stallone’s main home was a custom-built Mediterranean-style mansion in North Beverly Park, the gated enclave at the top of Beverly Hills. Built in 1994 to his own design with architect Richard Landry, the estate sat on 3.5 acres with 18,587 square feet of living space, eight bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. Its grounds were filled with Rocky and Rambo memorabilia — including a statue of Rocky Balboa, which became famous in its own right.
Stallone put the estate on the market in January 2021 asking $110 million. With no takers, he cut the price to $85 million in May 2021 and to $80 million that October. In January 2022 the singer Adele bought it for $58 million — $52 million below the original asking price and, at the time, the most expensive sale ever in Beverly Park. Stallone later told the Wall Street Journal that Adele had specifically wanted the Rocky statue, and she kept it. Reports in 2024 said Adele had demolished the house and was rebuilding a new mega-mansion on the site, keeping the statue.
Hidden Hills: Bought for $18.15M, Sold to John Fogerty
Weeks after the Adele sale, in February 2022, Stallone paid $18.15 million for an equestrian estate in Hidden Hills, the guard-gated community in the San Fernando Valley. The 2.26-acre compound at the end of a cul-de-sac offered 10,460 square feet of living space across four structures — a main house of roughly 9,000 square feet with a garden room, library, media room and wine cellar, plus a guest house, a pool house and a horse barn — with interiors decorated by Martyn Lawrence Bullard.
He owned it for less than two years. In December 2022 he listed it for $22.5 million, and in October 2023 it sold for $17.2 million to rocker John Fogerty, the former Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman, according to property records reported by Mansion Global. Fogerty later listed the same estate for $21.5 million.
La Quinta: The Desert Villa Sold at a Loss
In January 2010, Stallone and Flavin paid $4.5 million for a vacation retreat in La Quinta, California, in the desert near Palm Springs. The Mediterranean- and Tuscan-style villa, built in 2008, had 4,889 square feet of living space with four bedrooms and five bathrooms, a double-height living room with a stone fireplace and a wine room.
They tried to sell it for years — listing it for $4.2 million in 2014 and cutting the price to $3.625 million by 2016 without finding a buyer. In May 2020 they listed it again at $3.35 million, and it finally sold later that year for a reported $3.1 million — roughly $1.4 million less than they had paid for it a decade earlier.
Coconut Grove and the Early Years
Long before Palm Beach, Stallone owned a home on Biscayne Bay in Miami. In the 1990s he lived in Coconut Grove, Florida, and sold that home in 1999 for $16 million — an early sign of the Florida pull that would eventually bring him back for good. His first real home as a star was the Beverly Park mansion he built in 1994, the house that anchored his family life in Los Angeles for almost 30 years while his daughters grew up there.
