Rap cat and erstwhile GQ web series host 2 Chainz is in the real estate news as winter transitions to spring. The broad-spectrum epicurean dropped $3.75 million on a six-bedroom 2006-built contemporary Mediterranean in Los Angeles in the first week of March, according to Dirt. The property previously belonged to Eva Longoria.

Perched on a particularly dramatic hillside lot in Hollywood Dell, the 8,880 square-footer features an outdoor living area with decks that add a playfully precarious feel to the home’s lifestyle and a wrap-around upper level balcony. The interiors of the home are foreshadowed by an entry weighty with ornamental wrought iron, and develop into a style that isn’t ashamed of a flourish here and there, although a general cleanness of line keeps the flowery nicely in check.

The shape of the home’s living spaces reflects the demands of the lot; carved into a hillside, the house cannot help but be pleasingly eccentric, especially considering its size in relative relation to its 6,700 sq. ft. lot. A primary feature of the house is its spiral staircase, a pretty design other details include centered arches, tile floors, and tasteful hardwood trim. Amenities include a media room, a game room with a full-sized bar, and a pool and spa adjacent to a BBQ kitchen.

Look for 2 Chainz in this year’s feature The Enforcer. along with Kate Bosworth and Antonio Banderas.
