Gavin Newsom sells house for $5.9M ahead of California recall election
NY Post ^ | 8/17/21 | Sarah Paynter

Gavin Newsom is not ready to go home - nor can he, now that he’s sold his house.

The 53-year-old Democrat sold his pre-governorship mansion outside San Francisco for $5.895 million in May, property records show.

He moved forward with the sale months after it became clear he would face a recall election this fall.

He first listed the five-bedroom, five-bathroom home spanning 4,000 square feet in January 2019 for $5,995,000 after he took office and moved to Sacramento, according to Realtor.com.

It did not sell and quietly slipped off the market - until it sold off-market in May above its most recent asking price of $5,695,000.

Governor Newsom and his wife Jennifer purchased the home for $2.225 million in 2011 and put at least $330,000 into remodeling the house, Marin County permit application records show.

Architect Julie Dowling helped Newsom add glass walls and open living spaces, according to previous listings by Vanguard Properties. Vanguard Properties did not reply to a request for comment.

The 1.38-acre property offers a pool, a hot tub and views of Mount Tamalpais and the San Francisco bay, according to the listing.

The house was originally built by Bay Area architect Worley K. Wong in 1950, according to Realtor.com.

Me thinks-Moving back to SF. Plan B is to succeed Pelosi or DiFi. He’s a better rock thrower.

Nice place. I wonder how many illegals it takes to keep up that lawn?

Have to give the devil his due... >100% gain in 10 years is a pretty decent flip.

Probably moving to the beach so he can get a first hand look at the sea level rise caused by global warming.

The Pelosi crime family pays very well in the Bay area.

Hell, CCP probably gave him a city.

( That or he probably pocketed most of that billion he supposedly spent on masks that probably never arrived and bought 10 probably comparable mansions )

Spit.

Was this house given to him at a major discount as well as the last one?

Where he’s going, it will be an all-paid stay with 3 meals a day, personal guards, and one hour to exercise for free.

“public servant” my ample posterior! He’s a crook, just like the rest of them. You can wash a politician with lye soap and water all day long and NEVER get the filth off of them!

Dang good profit. It is the perfect time to sell. Bought my home for 186,000 in 2010 in Florida. Could sell for at least 290K today. Astonishing.

Maybe he knows what we only suspect. This election is rigged and he will be remaining in the governor’s mansion for the foreseeable future.

The house sold after weekly exorcist rites were included.
