Neverland is Up for Sale | Bedford Hills Real Estate

Michael Jackson paid $19.5 million for the ranch in 1987 and lived there more than 15 years.

The California ranch once known as “Neverland” and owned by late pop star Michael Jackson is going on the market for $100 million.

The Los Olivos property, about 40 miles from Santa Barbara, is now called “Sycamore Valley Ranch,” said Suzanne Perkins of Sotheby’s International Realty, who shares the listing with Harry Kolb of Sotheby’s and Jeffrey Hyland of Hilton & Hyland. The amusement park rides are gone, the agents said, as are the orangutans and elephant, though there is currently a llama on the property. The iconic floral clock, which spells out “Neverland,” is still there, and so is the building that once housed the “Neverland Valley Fire Department,” although it’s no longer staffed by full-time firefighters. But the railroad tracks and train station created at Jackson’s behest are still there.
