Justin Bieber, 18, seals the $6.5m deal on his very first home - a sprawling Calabasas mansion










At the age of 18, most teenagers are saving up for their very first car.

But for multimillionaire Justin Bieber, he had his eyes set on his very first home.

And he has found it in the heart of the upscale neighbourhood of Calabasas.

Today the pop sensation sealed the deal on a $6.5m mansion in the Californian suburb, where the Kardashian family also live.

According to the Los Angeles Times, he laid down the large sum for a 10,000-square-foot home on 1.3 acres.

Justin's new home features a a library, a movie theater with stadium seating, a wet bar and a wine cellar, and the grounds include a pond.

The property previously belong to Eddie Murphy's ex-wife Nicole.

The purchase comes after Bieber had been looking for a new home for some time, narrowing down his search to three properties.

At one point he was thought to have been eyeing up the home currently being rented by Ashton Kutcher.

Boasting a large pool, a huge guest house and an ample garage, it is likely the singer's girlfriend Selena Gomez will be spending a considerable amount of time there.

It is also likely the star will be splashing the cash to make the property state-of-the-art, including installing the latest high-tech gadgets.

Reports earlier this year suggested Bieber hopes to instal a computerised system which will allow him to have control of his home at his fingertips, from the bathtub to the blinds.

He is also said to be planning to install his own home cinema theatre as well as a games room - described as a 'teenage boy's bedroom' - featuring the latest consoles and old arcade machines.

The purchase comes as Justin seemed to lose his cool with the paparazzi today.
