In January, Paris Hilton lost her oceanfront Malibu home in the LA wildfires. She didn’t post a press release. Just a clip from the news, flames tearing through the property, and one line: “Heartbroken beyond words.” She and Carter Reum had bought that house in 2021 for $8.4 million. Two years later, it was gone.

After losing her Malibu home in the January wildfires, Paris Hilton didn’t wait long to find something permanent. She and Carter Reum have just closed on a $63.1 million estate inside Beverly Park, one of the most heavily guarded and private neighborhoods in Los Angeles. The house spans over 30,500 square feet, sits on more than six acres, and includes just about every feature you’d expect from a property at that level—plus a few that weren’t.
The estate was originally built by Mark Wahlberg and his wife Rhea Durham, who bought the land in 2009 and completed construction in 2014. They lived there until 2023 before selling to investor Leonid Smirnov in a $55 million all-cash deal. Less than two years later, Hilton stepped in and bought the property for $8 million more than Smirnov paid. Her brother Barron Hilton helped broker the purchase.

The house was designed by architect Richard Landry, known for high-end residential builds that prioritize layout and long-term function. The entry opens to a limestone-clad foyer with a double staircase. There’s a two-story library, a formal living room, and a family room connected to a kitchen with two oversized islands. The primary suite includes a private balcony, sitting area, two dressing rooms, and dual bathrooms. There’s also a home theater, a professional-grade gym, and a wine and cigar lounge with its own tasting room.
Outside, the scale is even more aggressive. The property includes a full skate park, a five-hole golf course with a driving range, a multi-sport court, a grotto-style pool with waterfalls and waterslides, and a detached guesthouse. The HOA dues alone are more than $6,400 a month, which gives some idea of the level of maintenance and security involved.
Hilton and Reum had been living in a Beverly Hills rental prior to this purchase, a property reportedly listed at $160,000 per month. They also own a $5.9 million home in Mulholland Estates and a $3.8 million penthouse in New York’s NoHo neighborhood. But this estate is on a different scale entirely, both in size and in intent. It’s nearly twice the size of their previous rental, tucked deep inside a community designed to keep outsiders out.
The decision to buy here came just months after Hilton publicly posted about losing her Malibu home, which she had purchased in 2021. She shared news coverage of the fire as it happened, saying she and her family had been watching as the house burned down live on TV.
This new house won’t replace it emotionally, but the purchase clearly wasn’t casual. Beverly Park isn’t a place you land in by chance. It’s structured for people who want privacy built into the design. Long driveways, layered security, no through traffic.
