Paul Anka’s Westlake Village Mansion Lists For $8.99 Million

Legendary singer-songwriter Paul Anka is once again listing his Westlake Village estate, this time for $8.99 million after previously listing it for $10 million in 2024.

The decision to relist comes after Anka held onto the property to complete updates and spend more time in the home, particularly in its recording studio, where he worked on his latest record.

The estate, located within Sherwood Country Club, has also served as a personal showcase of Anka’s career, with a den displaying more than 30 gold records from artists he’s written for or produced, including Michael Jackson, Michael Bublé, Donny Osmond, Buddy Holly, and Frank Sinatra.

A long driveway leads to a wide motor court in front of the main residence with tall black-framed windows, pale stone detailing, and an attached garage wing extending off to the right.

Classical trim around the doorway and upper pediment gives the front door a more traditional look, while the open paved court sets it up for a clean, estate-style arrival.

Why is Paul Anka Selling?

After years of holding onto the property, Paul Anka’s decision to sell reflects a shift in lifestyle rather than any change in the home itself.

Having spent many years living in Nevada, he has chosen to return there, while maintaining a smaller residence in Los Angeles that better suits his current needs.

For a future buyer, however, that scale is exactly the appeal. The home offers a combination of unique amenities, from professional-grade creative spaces to layered indoor and outdoor entertaining areas, making it a prime listing within the Westlake area.

  1. I just want to point out a typo that I think you’ll want to correct. The first paragraph heading is obviously intended to say “Entering Anka’s Mansion” but it’s missing the “t” and says “enering.” I thought you’d like to know.

      Thank you so much! It’s fixed now.
