The legendary crooner bought this estate in Mountain Center, California, in 1967 and named it "Villa Maggio" after his character in "From Here To Eternity" for which he won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. The estate hosted many parties with Sinatra's fellow Rat Pack members.
Spread across more than 7 acres above the Coachella Valley, the property boasts nine bedrooms and 12 and a half bathrooms among its multiple dwellings, including five bedrooms in the main house, three in the guest house and one in the pool house.
It's also equipped with various amenities including a vast pool, a helipad, a tennis court, parking for 20 vehicles and nine fireplaces.
Other features include a lounge with a custom bar, an office, a gym, library, home theater, media room and art studio.
The home was donated to Loyola Marymount University before eventually being sold to a private buyer, after Sinatra initially lived there for 14 years with his wife Barbara Marx.
