Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker just closed a deal to sell his four-bedroom home in the Cheviot Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles for $4,465,000. Right before that sale closed, the tattooed musician bought a gorgeous home in Calabasas, CA, for $2,825,000, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The Calabasas home initially hit the market in February for $3.2 million. Built in 2006, the 7,196-square-foot, Mediterranean-style home is located in the luxury enclave known as Oaks of Calabasas. It has five bedrooms and six baths, and features one of the largest floor plans in the private community.

The mansion features a staircase with wrought-iron railings and large-tile flooring throughout the first floor. The master bedroom has luxurious closets, and the kitchen features dark cabinetry, stone counters, and a huge center island. There’s also a bonus room that could be turned into a media room or library.

The living and formal dining rooms have french doors that open to a veranda. Outside there’s a covered loggia with a fire pit, barbecue, bar, and pool.

Barker, 41, is a rock and hip-hop artist whom Rolling Stone called “punk’s first superstar drummer.” He’s collaborated with artists such as Tom Morello, Corey Taylor, Slash, Busta Rhymes, and the late DJ AM.

The musician has two children—Landon and Alabama—with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler. Their stormy relationship was documented on the MTV reality show “Meet the Barkers.”
