Never say forever. Former “Million Dollar Listing” star Fredrik Eklund is selling his 5,700-square-foot “forever home” in Beverly Hills for $11 million.
The power broker with Douglas Elliman has listed the seven-bedroom, eight-bathroom house at 9573 Lania Lane, in Coldwater Canyon, according to the Robb Report.
The Swedish reality TV celebrity bought the East Coast traditional-style home in 2021 for $7 million.
He and his artist husband Derek Kaplan then renovated it with the help of New York interior designer Paris Forino. Its dominant shades: pink and blush.
The two-story clapboard house, with black trim, lies on a third of an acre surrounded by mature olive trees and a lap pool and spa, at the end of a gated driveway.
Inside the home, featured two years ago in Architectural Digest, a double-height foyer topped by an Apparatus cloud chandelier leads to a sitting room with a copper-and-black marble fireplace. In the magazine story, Eklund called the property his “forever home.”
It includes a formal dining room with a necklace chandelier, a large living room with walls of glass that open onto the backyard, a blue-and-pink gourmet kitchen and breakfast nook, plus a den with a marble fireplace.
There’s a screening room, gym, cold plunge, infrared sauna and an office that can be closed off with ribbed glass doors. A master bedroom has a fireside sitting area, balcony and a “boutique-worthy” walk-in closet.
Apart from the sales listing, the home was offered for lease at $50,000 per month.
Brokers Marcy Roth and Alexander Vichinsky of Douglas Elliman hold the listing.
Eklund, a longtime cast member for “Million Dollar Listing: New York” and “Million Dollar Listing: Los Angeles,” quit the shows after 11 years early last year without giving a reason. He owns a home in Connecticut he bought in 2016 for nearly $3 million. He also has moved to Miami, where he’s expanding his real estate business, according to Robb.
