Sylvester Stallone’s former Mediterranean-themed estate has undergone a dramatic transformation, courtesy of pop sensation Adele and her bold renovation vision for the Beverly Park property.

The iconic Grammy-winning artist has completely revamped the mansion she acquired from the “Rocky” actor in 2022, erasing nearly all vestiges of Stallone’s original design, as revealed in exclusive images from the Daily Mail.

This extensive makeover is emerging as one of Los Angeles’ most ambitious celebrity renovations, with projected costs expected to exceed $50 million, an amount similar to Adele’s initial purchase price four years prior.

One of the few elements that remains is the renowned swimming pool, once highlighted by a statue of Stallone as his famous boxing persona, Rocky, triumphantly raising a fist.

However, even this familiar feature has changed, with its waters now turning a murky green due to ongoing construction activity surrounding it.

Originally, Stallone’s mansion boasted a Mediterranean aesthetic with terracotta roofs. In contrast, Adele’s vision leans towards a sleek, modern look, characterized by expansive windows that encircle the property, made possible by its private setting.

Adele, 37, is sparing no expense as she pours tens of millions into rebuilding her Beverly Park mansion from the ground up

Every day, there are at least a dozen vehicles at the home with scores of workers involved in the decade-long project with builders having set up a semi-permanent camp there.

The mammoth job is being handled by celebrity construction company Valle Reinis.

Luxury renovation expert Leigh Ann Raines, owner of Chic By Design, believes this is will be costing the hitmaker tens of millions. 

It’s been under construction since she bought it in January 2022 and it could be another five years until the makeover is complete.

‘When it’s all said and done, it’s reasonable to expect the investment for the finished and furnished home could be equivalent to what she paid for it, upwards of $50 million,’ she said. 

‘It may be another five years, easily another three, from completion.

The property sits in a ‘very high fire hazard severity zone’, requiring specialized materials and adding to delays

‘Now that the home is under roof, work will begin on the interiors. Fitting a home of this size and caliber is never rushed.

‘This project is a major undertaking. Within the original footprint of the site, they have completely rebuilt the main home.

‘The design-build team, including Valle Reinis, will be meticulous in carefully curating exactly what the couple wants.’

The property is in a ‘very high’ fire hazard severity zone and needs special cool roof materials.

‘The January 2025 fires in the Pacific Palisades destroyed thousands of properties and likely contributed to some unexpected delays on Adele’s home this year – that affluent community is vying for scarce specialized labor resources after the major disaster,’ said Raines. 

Builders have set up a semi-permanent camp at the property, with insiders saying the renovation could take another five years to complete

‘Having worked on complex renovations, it’s fair to say that they often take longer and end up being more expensive than buying a new building.’

Adele’s put together an extensive top design and building team.

Architect Sylvia Kuhle is a partner at Standard Architecture and led the teams who designed the Phare Tower in Paris, the Children’s Museum Los Angeles and the Forest Knoll Residence, which was sold in 2021 for $23.225 million.

Also onboard is structural engineer Derek Wavering, an expert in building luxury custom-made houses in Beverly Hills.
