Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is splashing out $27.8 million to purchase a six-bedroom Beverly Park mansion from comedian and Aliens actor Paul Reiser.
The Rock, 48, has acquired a 3.67 acre Los Angeles property first built for Alex Van Halen by architect Grant Kirkpatrick in 1993, according to Dirt.
Although Paul first put the house on the market for $30 million some months ago Dwayne has apparently been able to shave a couple million off that price tag.

Paul and The Rock reportedly closed their off-market deal last week on the property, which includes both a sprawling main house and a guest house.
Pictures show a sumptuous property designed in a Mediterranean style and able to be well-lit from the outside even after nightfall in case the new owners want to entertain.
Back when Alex Van Halen had the home constructed for himself he made certain it included a music studio, which is just one of the home’s many ultra-luxe amenities.
The home theater includes elegant wood paneling contrasted with midnight blue cloth on the walls, plus Art Deco light fixtures in a flourish of retro chic.

Inasmuch as The Rock is an action star known for his sensational figure he will likely be happy to know that the home also features a gym and an indoor swimming pool.
If he gets a yen for a bit of outdoor exercise he could also pop on over to the mansion’s tennis court, or even to the baseball diamond located on the grounds.
The home also provides opportunity for more relaxed forms of alfresco entertainment including a tree-shaded patio surrounded by bushes and grass.
Out in the gardens Dwayne and his family can stroll through a tree-lined grass pathway flanked by immaculately manicured hedgerows and raised platforms.

In a true Mediterranean touch the movie star can also enjoy a walk in a shadowy portico with a high vaulted canopy reminiscent of Medieval Italy.
Either that or the residents can amble along through a long winding stone pathway that leads through a lush wooded area that is hemmed in by low hedges.
The grounds also feature an apparently stucco archway covered in vines that opens onto a charmingly tranquil little courtyard with a fountain in the middle of it.

Put together the main house and guesthouse contain about 17,630 square feet of living space, which includes a staggering total of 11.5 bathrooms.
Dwayne’s acquisition comes just three months after he listed his Georgia horse farm for what Barrons reports is $7.5 million – a $2 million markdown from the price he bought it for a little over a year prior.
News of his purchase broke the same day he posted a smoldering Instagram picture of himself flashing his musclebound arms in sleeveless workout gear whilst at the gym.

In his caption he quoted the Johnny Cash protest song Man In Black from the early 1970s: ‘I’d love to wear a rainbow every day / And tell the world that everything’s okay / But I’ll try to carry off a little darkness on my back / ‘Til things are brighter, I’m the Man In Black.’
Dwayne added in his own words: ‘Great training session before sunrise and a helluva week shooting #BlackAdam,’ adding: ‘Thank you guys for all your support and excitement for this film – we’re motivated to deliver for you,’ and wrapping up by urging his followers: ‘Finish your week strong.’
The sizzling sensation is playing the title character in Black Adam, a DC Comics superhero movie that is slated for release on July 29 of next year.
