Inside Paul Anka’s Los Angeles-area Mansion with A Recording Studio

Paul Anka’s long-standing residence in the Los Angeles area, located within the Sherwood Country Club estate in Thousand Oaks, California. Situated approximately 40 miles from downtown L.A., this 7,791-square-foot home rests on nearly 6 acres of gated land, offering expansive views of the clubhouse and the neighboring mountains. Last week’s listing, managed by Mary Ann Scott of Beverly & Company and Team Nicki LaPorta and Karen Crystal at Compass, highlighted the luxurious lifestyle at Sherwood, which harmonizes opulence with the natural splendor of the nearby lake and the majestic Santa Monica Mountains.

The home is about 7,800 square feet.

According to PropertyShark records, Anka, who is 82 years old, acquired the property in 2007 for just under $4 million. Renowned for his hits like “Put Your Head on My Shoulder,” “Diana,” and “My Way” – Frank Sinatra’s iconic song for which Anka penned the English lyrics – the singer, songwriter, and actor’s representatives have yet to respond to a comment request.

The residence boasts a semi-open layout featuring stone floors, high ceilings, and striking light fixtures. Additionally, there’s an eat-in chef’s pantry equipped with a spacious island and a windowed breakfast nook. The property includes several reception rooms, two of which showcase Anka’s collection of gold records, as depicted in listing photos. Many of these rooms offer access to the backyard through French doors.

There are four en-suite bedrooms along with two additional bathrooms. The main suite is equipped with an office area, a dressing room, and a bathroom featuring a soaking tub.
