A former MTV star has said farewell to the Golden State and hello to a popular city with lower taxes.
Steve-O, who was born Stephen Glover, listed his three-bedroom, three-bathroom Hollywood Hills home and has already moved into a ranch in the Southeast.
‘I got this ranch in Tennessee, which I love so much. I just had to say Hollywood, it’s been cool, but I’m out,’ he said in a YouTube video that he posted on May 2.
Steve-O appeared to be living the dream in Tennessee and he hinted that one of the biggest reasons for the move is to stop paying California taxes.
Listing agent Cesar Melendrez from Jason Mitchell Real Estate is in charge of selling the 2,398-square-foot property that’s listed for $1.799 million.
A Hollywood Hills home that was the home of former MTV star Steve-O is currently on the market. Cesar Melendrez is the listing agent for the 2,398-square-foot home, which is currently for sale at $1.799 million
Steve-O first announced that the house would be going up for sale during a house tour video he posted on April 4. His former three-bedroom, three-bathroom home included a skate ramp and goat barn. However, before it was put on the market, nearly every room in the house got a makeover, including the backyard
Steve-O first announced that he planned to sell the property in the description of his California house video tour on YouTube.
‘I worked on this video for years, and only stopped because I decided to sell the house,’ he wrote.
He showed off his open floor plan on the first floor with a chef’s kitchen and living room.

He also displayed his former game room, which he said was ‘reimagined masterfully’ to use as an extra storage space.
Deer print wallpaper covered the walls near the stairway that led up to Steve-O’s bedroom with a comfy bed and a mᴀssage chair.
He even gave viewers a peak into a remodeled production room with fun pictures and unique curtains.
Steve-O concluded his tour by showing off his small skate ramp that he and his friends used in multiple YouTube videos he’s posted over the years.
Now that the house is up for sale, it’s been turned upside-down into a property that viewers may not be able to recognize.
Steve-O pointed out that the California property is located right near the Hollywood sign. According to the property description, the house is ‘atop a private hillside’ and it’s just minutes away from the Hollywood Reservoir and the Sunset Strip
The outside of the house was featured in both of Steve-O’s videos. Hardly any changes were made to the front of the house and its fence that partially blocks off the property was unchanged during the renovations
The open floor plan that was noticeable in Steve-O’s video on the lower level still exists inside the remodeled house. However, all of the walls have been painted. The wooden beams on the living room ceiling were painted black to match the fireplace that had once been covered with a light blue fabric. The rustic wooden floors and the placement of windows stayed the same, which gives the area great natural light
The modern furniture and new fireplace color were the final touches made to the living room before it was put on the market. However, Steve-O decided to hang up custom artwork in the room in order to add a bit of his personality into the living room
The chef’s kitchen includes white marble countertops that match the drawers built in next to the stainless steel oven. The island, cabinets and lights were already in the home prior to it being put on the market. However, like the living room, the wooden beams that were hardly noticeable in the kitchen have been painted black
‘It’s just about unrecognizable… Everything’s painted, they cleaned out my goat barn, the ramp’s gone, and it will be listed within the next week,’ he confirmed.
However, the prankster decided to keep the deer print wallpaper at the stairwell.
Steve-O was sad about the move and told the cameraman that it was ‘bittersweet’ right before he left.
He and his fiancée, Lux Wright, had their belongings placed into moving trucks, and despite the partial struggle to get their goats together, the pair left California.
‘It’s been an honor to see Steve-O’s growth as a person, this move represents him starting a new life with his fiancé and his pᴀssion for creating an animal sanctuary,’ Melendrez told TMZ.

The bedrooms in Steve-O’s old California property were completely redone and include new white furniture and bedding with hints of color that bring out the ambiance of the room. The window next to one of the beds provides amazing natural light
The all-new master suite is different from Steve-O’s old bedroom that consisted of a bed, dark colors and a mᴀssage chair. This suite now features light colors and modern furniture with a clearer view from the private balcony. If one looks close enough, they can see some of the other houses near the Hollywood sign from the balcony
The master bathroom includes a long and narrow bathroom including luxurious bathtub
The garage is spacious and will get the job done for anyone who needs to park their cars or store any necessary items like tools, toys or in Steve-O’s case, accessories for his goat barn that was once on the property
What was once an area for a skate ramp became an outdoor oasis for anyone that is looking to entertain guests while watching a sunset

Steve-O had a big smile on his face almost the entire time he showed off his new Tennessee retreat.
‘Everything is an upgrade. Our goats have a brand new barn, a dope new pen, and we decided to let them out of the pen and just hang out on the property,’ he said.
Other than their four goats, Steve-O and Lux own two pigs, two dogs and four cats.
Their animal caretaker, Daniel, also moved with couple, who according to Steve-O, ‘gets things done quickly.’
‘I love our life on the ranch so much that I never want to leave,’ he added.
The entertainer and Lux decided to celebrate their move with an updated bedroom, which includes a new mattress and bed set.
However, he did bring all the furniture and decor from the California bedroom to Tennessee and placed it into the couple’s guest bedroom.
‘The only thing about the radical ranch which has not been upgraded is our video production room,’ said Steve-O.
‘Now, we transfer all of footage to our top secret new location in California.’
