According to Robb Report, legendary guitarist Steve Vai has listed his longtime home in Encino, California, for nearly $11.8 million.
The property, located behind gates in Encino's coveted Music Row neighborhood, was originally conceived as a mid-century residence and expanded to over 10,000 square feet.
The estate features five ensuite bedrooms, nine-foot ceilings, original poured-in-place terrazzo throughout the entry, foyer, and patios, and acacia wood flooring throughout.
An additional 3,000 square feet has been added, which includes studio, pool house, and gym.
Photos of the property can be found on the Sotheby's International Realty website.
The sale comes as Vai continues to tour in support of his recent studio album "Inviolate." In the past year, he has performed extensively around the globe, visiting 51 countries across six continents.
His final excursion in 2023 saw Vai perform in Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), Kaohsiung (Taiwan), Zallak (Bahrain), Bangalore and Kolkata (India), alongside six new markets in China.
In 2024, BEAT (Adrian Belew, Tony Levin, Danny Carey, Steve Vai) staged 65 North American appearances.
SATCHVAI, the band featuring Vai alongside fellow legendary guitar icon Joe Satriani, launched the "Surfing With The Hydra" 2026 tour on April 1 in Seattle, Washington.
The trek will continue on throughout April and May before winding up in Vienna, Virginia at Wolf Trap on May 30.
ANIMALS AS LEADERS is providing support on all dates.
Vai has relocated to San Diego's Rancho Santa Fe area with his wife Pia in early 2025.
