Johnny Depp got here so close to losing two of his West Hollywood homes – but was able to take out a $10 million loan to save them.
Files show that his smaller home on N. Sweetzer Avenue, which was repossessed for $4.28 million in 2016, was in full recovery after the actor paid the debt.
Depp took a huge loan in March for a second home – known for its uncanny resemblance to a Gothic replica of a Bavarian castle.
In 2018, a castle-shaped house lost $5 million.
According to every day mail, Depp was forced to take out an eight-figure home loan with City National Bank – nicknamed “the bank of stars” for its great loan deals for the very best – after squandering his $650 million fortune on litigation with Amber Heard and other reckless spending.
Spanning 7,430 square feet, the mansion is harking back to a horror movie set stuffed with turrets and turrets.
Depp, 60, bought the 8-bedroom, 10-bath home in 1995 for $2.15 million.
Near the two-story Sunset Strip, it’s virtually invisible – it’s positioned in a cul-de-sac, behind lush vegetation and trees planted for privacy. Only the front gate is visible from street level.
Nevertheless, this doesn’t prevent tour buses carrying crowds of fans on the onlookers.
“We were getting these vans with their tops open and folks talking and cheering and shouting and it was annoying,” John Ryan, 63, who has lived on the road for 28 years, told The Post.
The home, nonetheless, seems to be in a dilapidated state. The property is surrounded by trees.
Despite doing his best to keep the homes up, his presence is nearly absent.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor spends most of his time at his home within the Bahamas.
Currently, Depp is touring Europe together with his band Hollywood Vampires, which he formed with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry. They played in London on Monday.
