Black Sabbath Co-founder Geezer Butler Selling Beverly Hills Home

Heavy-metal legend Terence Michael Joseph Butler, better known as Geezer Butler, original bassist and lyricist for Black Sabbath, is selling his Beverly Hills, CA, home—and it isn’t anything like you’re expecting.

Butler, often considered the father of heavy metal, is known for his dark and resonating lyrics, but if you’re expecting rocker touches like a guitar-shaped pool, on-site nightclub, or maybe a bat-filled dungeon, think again.

Listed for a recently reduced $2,995,000, the five-bedroom home is a bright and airy Mediterranean with a ton of modern touches.

The stylish space definitely has a villa vibe, with plenty of small details like wrought-iron railings and ornate french doors.

But there’s plenty of modern charm, too. In the den, cubby-style built-ins surround an asymmetrical fireplace. The kitchen—complete with stainless-steel appliances and sleek black countertops—is divided by a separate eat-in bar.

Upstairs, the new buyers will be able to sleep like a rock star. There is a massive master suite with a sitting area, fireplace, and balcony overlooking the yard.

But outside might be the place to be. There’s a covered space for relaxing, a saltwater pool, and plenty of green. Best of all: No neighbors.

“The best feature is probably the large lot. With no rear neighbor, there is a lot of privacy,” says Violetta Hargitay, listing agent with Rodeo Realty.

As for the legend, he’s been touring with Black Sabbath on a farewell tour, dubbed “The End.”
