Singer-songwriter-guitarist John Fogerty is the current owner of this 9,000 sq. ft. contemporary in Encino, but the legendary Creedence Clearwater Revival front man and solo artist has listed it on the open market for $8.997 million.
The 2016-built luxury home features six bedrooms and eight baths, and an amenities list that includes a backlit wet bar, a home theater, and motorized glass doors that open to the property’s .63 acres of grounds.
The home’s façade is traditional, but its architecture incorporates a soaring entry recess in reclaimed timber and glass, giving its personality a rustic dimension and lending an invitational warmth to the interiors.
Inside the home, there’s a dramatic variance of personality from room to room, with the open kitchen and family area dressed in plentiful hardwood, the living room sporting black-and-white drama, and the bedrooms finished in individual styles. Wide-plank hardwood is a constant.
The house features a California room with motorized glass walls, which transitions to the outdoor living area with a pool, spa, fire lounge, turf, and outdoor kitchen. A rooftop deck puts the finishing touch on the exterior living areas.
CCR was only active for four short years, but the band has managed to sell over 30 million records in the U.S. Fogerty parted ways with CCR in 1972 and went on to have a successful solo career which continues today.
