Slash's over-the-top rock-star playground, 'too much' for family, is listed at $11M
By Sid Lipsey
When Guns N' Roses were singing about "Paradise City" back in 1987, they could have had in mind guitarist Slash's future house — a paradise for fans of (partially) family-friendly rock-and-roll excess, complete with skull and pirate motifs, crystal ship chandeliers and a basement nightclub.

Slash — whose real name is Saul Hudson — has listed the Tuscan-style estate he shared with his wife, Perla Hudson, and their two sons for almost $11 million. The couple filed for divorce last year.
"It's just too much house for me and two boys," Perla Hudson, who designed the home herself, tells Yahoo Homes. "We're downsizing."
The 7-bedroom, 8-bath mansion in Beverly Hills' Mulholland Estates neighborhood has a gigantic playroom upstairs and a 36-foot skate ramp in the backyard.

But don't forget, Slash lived here too.
"The parties we've had here ... " says Perla Hudson, who calls the home's decorative scheme "rock-star chic." Slash and Perla literally partied like rock stars here, primarily in the home's most baller feature: a full-scale nightclub with DJ booth and full bar.
"We can easily get 100 people in here," Hudson says of the glitzy basement club, revealing that the space has seen some R-rated (and naughtier) antics. It was here they threw their legendary New Year's Eve parties; Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie famously attended the 2014 bash.
The downstairs club even comes with its very own stripper pole. "I have a portable one I'll be taking with me," Hudson says, laughing.
The listing is held by Jade Mills of Coldwell Banker Previews International.
