The Playboy Mansion could be yours....
The Associated Press Published: January 11, 2016
LOS ANGELES – The Playboy Mansion is up for sale but longtime resident Hugh Heffner wants to stay put. The West Los Angeles estate, the backdrop of many film shoots and wild parties, was listed on Monday for $200 million. Playboy Enterprises says the 5-acre property features 29 rooms, a home theater, wine cellar and a swimming pool with a cave-like grotto where Playboy bunnies partied with celebrities. The mansion also comes with a rare zoo license. As a condition of the sale, Playboy founder Hefner would get to continue living there as he has since the company bought the mansion 45 years ago for just over $1 million. Playboy CEO Scott Flanders says the sale would help the company “reinvest in the transformation of our business” while allowing Hefner to continue living there.

How strange... He wants $200 million and free rent for the rest of his life!
"Playboy" must be desperate.

It's not the money, got that covered, it's how to get rid of the "old man smell".

I told my wife about this. I said...how creepy living in the house with an old pervert waiting for him to die. Without a seconds thought she replied..."not much different to my life now".

Playboy is shedding the jet set image big time. No more naked ladies in the magazine now selling the mansion. Oh well time marches on.

Hef probably does his hair once a week.

The bill for steam cleaning the place would be sizable.

Steam clean my arse! I'd want a hydrogen peroxide atomization fumigation like they do in hospital rooms after a breakout of MRSA.
