Soap opera royalty just made a major real estate move. The Young and the Restless star Melody Thomas Scott, beloved for her decades-long portrayal of Nikki Newman, has officially sold her jaw-dropping Los Angeles mansion — and the price tag? A cool $6.2 million.
The Mediterranean-style estate, nestled in the heart of the prestigious Hollywood Hills, has been the actress’s sanctuary for over a decade. Now, it’s turning heads once more — not for its famous former owner, but for the luxurious details inside that are leaving fans stunned.
So, what makes this property so special?
For starters, the 6-bedroom, 7-bathroom mansion boasts over 7,000 square feet of pure elegance. Think soaring ceilings, arched doorways, and natural light flooding through massive windows. The grand foyer opens into a formal living room with a fireplace fit for a queen — and let’s face it, Nikki Newman wouldn’t settle for anything less.
One of the standout features? The gourmet chef’s kitchen, complete with state-of-the-art appliances, a marble island, and intricate tile work that screams old Hollywood glamour. But that’s not all. A private screening room, temperature-controlled wine cellar, and ornate library offer plenty of space for both leisure and legacy.
The primary suite is a retreat unto itself — featuring a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in closet that could rival a Beverly Hills boutique. French doors open onto a balcony with sweeping views of the canyon and city lights below.
Outside, the lush backyard offers a resort-style pool and spa, an outdoor kitchen, and multiple lounging areas framed by palm trees and bougainvillea. It’s the kind of escape you’d expect to see in a magazine spread — and now, someone else gets to call it home.
Sources close to the actress say Melody was ready for a “fresh chapter” and that the sale was an emotional but empowering step forward. While fans might miss the glimpses of her elegant home on social media, one thing is certain: this real estate moment is as bold and dramatic as any Y&R storyline.
Stay tuned — because if Melody’s next move is anything like this sale, we’re in for another showstopper.
