The John Aaroe Group, which sold the home, released a statement saying that the 35 year-old Swede closed on the deal last night, beating out such competition as little-known couple Jay-Z and Beyonce according to Curbed LA. This is the most someone has ever paid for a home in the California neighborhood, and Aaroe Group says it closed in just six days.
"Persson's purchase included everything in the house from luxury furnishings to exotic electronics such as the automated 54-foot curved glass door in the living room that opens onto an infinity pool with iPad-controlled fountains and spectacular views. Cases of Dom Perignon were part of the deal," the statement explains.

"Located on a promontory in the high-end Trousdale Estates neighborhood, the 23,000 square-foot home was built on spec and left nothing to be desired. Entertaining will be a snap with vodka and tequila bars, a candy room, an 18-seat tiered screening room, a state-of-the-art kitchen and an exquisite 18-foot onyx dining room table for 24 that includes place settings by Roberto Cavalli at a cost of $3,700 each."
