Jamie Foxx Buys Thousand Oaks Mansion For 10.5 Million

Jamie Foxx New House For OscarJamie Foxx has just purchased a 10.5 million dollar mansion in the Thousand Oaks section of Los Angeles Ventura County (Thanks Robert Cote for the correction). The Oscar winning actor has been on a trajectory of success, and the 17,000 foot home is now another trophy to show how successful he has been.

The mansion has an Olympic sized pool along with a couple of guest houses. As he says Ray Charles told him, “If you feel it, you know it’s right.”

The house, built in 1995, sits on 40 acres. It has 10 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, a library, family and game rooms, a full gym and a master-bedroom suite with a sitting room, an atrium, a sauna and a balcony.

The estate also has an Olympic-size pool, a spa, a cabana studio, a north-south tennis court, playing fields and two guesthouses.

Foxx, 39, who won a best-actor Oscar for “Ray,” appears in “Dreamgirls” and has sold more than 2 million copies of his album “Unpredictable.”

He moved to California from Texas around 1990 to work on his music career and, as a stand-up comic, changed his name from Eric Morlon Bishop to Jamie Foxx in homage to actor Redd Foxx. via Los Angeles Times

  1. …10.5 million dollar mansion in the Thousand Oaks section of Los Angeles.

    Let me guess. You are not from around here. So, tell me, in what part of NYC is Danbury, CT located? Thousand Oaks in Ventura County in SoCal is not LA.
