Playboy founder Hugh Hefner has died at 91, Playboy Enterprises confirmed in a press release Wednesday night.

For the last 40 years, the entertainment icon made his home in the infamous Playboy Mansion, the site of many a crazy party. 

Hefner never technically owned the Los Angeles estate. He leased it from Playboy Enterprises and paid $100 a year in rent.

In August 2016, the nearly 20,000-square-foot house sold for $100 million to Daren Metropoulos, a principal of the private-equity firm Metropoulos & Co. and a former co-CEO of Pabst Brewing Company.

As part of the terms of the sale, Hefner was allowed to continue living there for $1 million per year. Now that he has died, the mansion and its five-acre grounds will officially have no further ties to Playboy Enterprises.

Let's take a look around Hefner's longtime home:

The 20,000-square-foot house is on the edge of the Los Angeles Country Club in the Holmby Hills neighborhood, right between Beverly Hills and Westwood.



The five-acre property includes the main mansion and a four-bedroom guesthouse.



For decades, invitations to Playboy Mansion parties were highly coveted, and stories of the wild nights here are Hollywood legend.
