Paul Anka Lists Country Club Mansion $10 Million

Paul Anka is a Canadian-American singer-songwriter best known for his hit singles “Diana,” “Put Your Head on My Shoulder,” “Having My Baby,” and “Lonely Boy.” One of the biggest teen idols of the 1950s and '60s, he toured with Buddy Holly and wrote the theme song for the Johnny Carson Show. In addition to his solo career, Anka wrote hits for some of the world’s biggest music stars, including the lyrics to Frank Sinatra’s “My Way,” Tom Jones’ “She’s a Lady,” and three singles for Michael Jackson. He was one of the first pop stars to perform in Las Vegas and opened Jubilation, then the world’s largest disco club, in 1978. He has also made numerous television appearances, most recently a run on the reality series The Masked Singer, finishing seventh. With a musical style that has evolved through the decades, the 82-year-old Anka is still active, releasing his latest album, Sessions, in 2022 and serving on the board of the holographic tech startup, ARHT Media, with Kevin O’Leary. In 2007, the multi-talented artist purchased a stunning mansion within the Sherwood Country Club. Paul has recently listed the home for $10 million.

The stately, French-inspired residence sits on one of the country club’s largest lots at nearly six acres, offering views of the golf clubhouse and the surrounding mountains. The landscaped grounds feature a majestic infinity pool, plus a glass-walled, free-standing gym and outdoor shower. Fully gated, the home is set back from the road with a long driveway and private motor court. Past the impressive columned entryway, find an aesthetic of classic luxury, featuring stone floors, high ceilings, designer light fixtures, and marble accents. Perfect for an entertainer, the home features a recording studio, a mirrored billiard room, a gorgeous chef’s kitchen, and collapsible doors that offer seamless access between the living and dining areas and the spacious patios for entertaining and lounging. The spacious primary suite includes a fireplace, an opulent bath, and a dressing room. With 7,791 square feet, five bedrooms and six baths, the two-story home offers a lifestyle of opulence and elegance.
