Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer is selling his rockin’ home in Boerne, TX, for $3.9 million.

While Kramer and his wife weren’t there long, the couple put their stamp on the place.

“He and his wife, Linda, found it under construction,” says listing agent Megan DiBartolo

She told us they bought the 7,700-square-foot estate in 2016, and worked with the builders to make a few customizations. They expanded the closets, installed state-of-the-art audiovisual components controlled by an iPad, and built a second multi-car garage across from the first one. 

Yes, Kramer does own some nice cars, but the 68-year-old also placed his drum set in the new garage, where he could practice his heart out, according to DiBartolo.

The one-story Cordillera Ranch gated estate offers easy entertaining with open spaces, both inside and out. There’s a large living room with vaulted and beamed ceilings, as well as an outdoor dining and lounging space with a fireplace, pool, and spa. 

The home, made in part from hand-cut stone, features four beds, four full baths, and two half-baths. It sits on 14 acres that qualify for a wildlife tax exemption. The home was built by custom home builder Todd Glowka, and the custom closets were designed by Lisa Adams of L.A. Closets. 

The kitchen includes a large island with bar seating, plus a separate breakfast area. And here’s another perk: The Rockin’ and Roastin’ coffee company owner added a built-in Miele espresso maker for incredibly impressive cups of caffeinated beverages.

One other quirky addition? The musician had an area meant for a wine collection turned into a “Grammy closet.” (Yes, he has that many.) Squint and you can see them peeking out behind the bar. However, we’re guessing they’re not included.

The couple bought the home after leaving the Austin area in search of a more remote, private spot. Perhaps they went a little too far. DiBartolo notes that they have once again decided to move to be closer to family elsewhere in Texas. But the last two years were well spent.

“They like projects,” DiBartolo says.

The home, which won local and national building design awards, is “better than new,” according to the agent.

“They lived in it and were able to make sure all the components were put into place and added a bunch of extras that a buyer wouldn’t have to worry about with a new construction.”

The drummer won’t have too much time to settle in to his next pad before heading to Las Vegas for the Aerosmith residency at the MGM Grand in 2019, celebrating the rock band’s 50th anniversary.
