Tour Suzanne Somers' Former Palm Springs Estate Listed for $9 Million

Overhead view of the property

The home was inspired by the L'oustau De Baumaniere in Provence, France. It mixed the couple's love of nature and elegance with striking contrasts. For example, the home has crystal chandeliers, but they hang from reclaimed wood to bring a sense of rough against smooth and hard against soft. The home sits on a hill, with the property covering 28 acres and overlooking Mesa Canyon.

Inside the kitchen

The estate includes five buildings, with 10,000 square feet of pavilions. One building includes the master suite, the living room, a two-room kitchen, a wine cellar, and a stone guest house designed in the 1920s. There is also plenty of space for guests, as the dining room has space for 32 seats.

Pool details

Somers and Hamel could have even hosted their own shows, as the estate includes an outdoor amphitheater carved into the mountain. It has 50 seats and a dance floor. Other recreational features include a pool, spa, hiking trails, and a natural waterfall. There is even a private funicular, golf carts, and hillside stone steps that lead to the buildings.

Main bedroom

The celebrity power couple plan to move to a smaller home nearby that will be as green-friendly as possible, Hamel told the New York Post. "Even though I am not one of those 'greeniacs,' we're making sure the air quality is balanced and perfect, and even the drywall doesn't have all those chemicals," he said. The new home will be solar-powered and will feature an organic garden.

An ornate bathroom

Somers described their new home as a "party house, a very sexy house." There will also be a source of natural heat they call a "passion pit," they told the Post. This is a tribute to the "passion pit" in the old houseboat Hamel lived in while the couple was falling in love. It's what they called a carpeted area in front of a fireplace.

More outside amenities

It was hard for Somers to let go of the Palm Springs home because it meant so much to them, but they decided it was time to let it go. "It sold because I finally let it go — emotionally, spiritually, and physically," Somers told the Post at the time. She said the home was "not the right home anymore" for the two at that stage of their lives.
