So, what is Abel Makkonen (The Weeknd) like in person and how much is Abel Makkonen Tesfaye worth? Well, we have all those answers, but first, let’s get into who he is! Abel Makkonen Tesfaye is known to us as The Weeknd, the uber-talented Canadian singer, songwriter, and record producer. Since anonymously uploading videos to YouTube in 2010, he’s taken the world by storm with his insane talent, provocative personas, and, of course, his tabloid-making relationships. But what comes to mind first for us is, where does The Weeknd live and how do we find The Weeknd house photos? We’ve got you covered below!

The Weeknd was born in Toronto, Canada, and was raised in Scarborough (an area of Toronto), but since making it big, he has home in multiple places. From Hidden Hill to Bel Air and Manhattan – we’ve broken down all the details below!

Back in August 2021, The Weeknd dished out a staggering $69 million for this stunning Mediterranean-style estate in an uber exclusive community in Bel Air. The mega mansion boasts 8 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms as well as 18,316 square feet of interior living space.

Here, we see a spacious living room with intricate tray ceiling and a marble fireplace. The space also offers easy access to the grounds by way of multiple sets of French doors.

In the formal dining room, we find a fireplace and floating glass shelves that offer ample space for extra decor…or music awards, maybe?

Okay, so if you want an outdoor entertaining paradise – we’re sorry, The Weeknd already snapped it up. Seriously, between a sports area, multiple lounge spaces (covered and uncovered), and a massive infinity pool – this dude is living the dream! #housegoals

If you’re wondering ‘where does The Weeknd live currently?,’ this is for you: In 2017, The Weeknd dropped $18,200,000 on this massive home in the celebrity-loved Hidden Hills. The 2.94-acre property is perfect piece of architecture you have to see to believe!

For starters, the olive-tree lined driveway leads to a bridge made for storybooks that deliver you to a perfectly manicured entry/front door.

As soon as you step foot in the 12,547 square foot palace, you’re greeted by the 25-foot-tall entry that’s flanked with custom glass walls. Beyond the front door are massive cased openings allowing light from every direction, and two balconies overlooking the foyer.

Further into the estate, you’ll find the massive living room complete with a fireplace and a wide wall of glass that opens onto a covered porch. From here, you’ll have a fantastic view of the grounds and easy indoor/outdoor access to the pool!

Speaking of massive, check out this spacious kitchen with double islands, double ovens, double sinks, and even a double door fridge (can’t hurt to have a spare, right?)

In addition to the breakfast bar in the kitchen, the estate also offers a gorgeous dining room. Regardless of whether it’s a formal or casual dining occasion, guests and residents alike are sure to enjoy a meal here.

Not far from the dining room, you’ll find this incredible temperature-controlled wine room decked out in electric blue lighting. Even if you’re not a wine connoisseur, you still can’t help but fall in love with the aesthetic here.

Upstairs, a luxurious master suite and ensuite await. The suite features lighted built-ins, a modern fireplace, built-in television, and a glass wall that opens onto a balcony overlooking the pool.

And now for the best part – amenities. This home features not only a private gym, but also a basketball court, a cyberpunk-esque garage, and numerous outdoor lounge areas. With so much to do, how would it even be possible to get bored here?!

Finally, what Hidden Hills estate would be complete with a spacious swimming pool and spa? Right off the pool, opposite the home, there’s also a large pool cabana that offers shade and comfort on those hot summer days.

In June 2020, The Weekend listed his Hidden Hills home for $24,995,000. Then, in October of 2020, he chopped $2 million off the asking price. After 2 more months with no buyer, in December 2020 he chopped another $1 million off the asking price.

In April 2021, however, The Weeknd would finally offload his mega estate to the queen of pop herself, Madonna! She purchased the mansion for $19.3 million but would go on to relist it herself with a $26 million price tag.

In 2019, The Weeknd expanded his real estate portfolio in Los Angeles to a 7,950 square foot mansion in the sky on the cusp of Beverly Hills.

He paid $21 million for the 3 bedroom, 6 bathroom penthouse unit at the newly built 22-story Beverly West building that actually located in Westwood aka “Little Manhattan” to us LA locals.

An open floorplan allows for easy movement between the kitchen, dining room, and this luxurious living room. With a view like that to enjoy every day, it’s not hard to see why The Weeknd wanted to call it home.

Photos from the initial floorplan show a very different unit than the one you see today. Everything was given a far more futuristic, trendy look that really makes the condo POP visually.

One thing you’ll never be short of in this luxury condo is entertainment potential! In addition to a dining room space, the unit also features a spacious wet bar with seating for up to 5 people.

Where does The Weeknd live in Toronto?

The Weeknd House Toronto

While there is very little information on The Weeknd childhood home, we do have all the deets about The House of Balloon’s Toronto!

The Weeknd House of Balloons album, his debut, was released on March 21, 2011. Many wondered if this “House of Balloons” was real, as did we. In 2013 during a Reddit AMA, he revealed that the home is a real place and is located at 65 Spencer Avenue in the Parkdale neighborhood of Toronto.

Given the content of the mix tape (sex and drugs), there is speculation that this is where he discovered and/or experimented with those those things.

The Weeknd Net Worth

So, how rich is The Weeknd? Well, after years of number one records and multiple endorsement deals, he’s estimated to be worth a shocking $300 million.

Who is Starboy?

The Weeknd Starboy album, released in November 2016, is one of the most successful albums of all time, earning the triple-platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America in January 2019.

What hairstyle does The Weeknd have?

While it has no official name, The Weeknd’s signature dreadlocks in a pulled forward style took the world by storm…with confusion. It is worth noting that artist Jean-Michel Basquiat had a similar hairstyle and many say that’s where The Weeknd got the inspiration.

What is The Weeknd  (Abel Tesfaye) Ethnicity?

Many people have asked, where is The Weeknd’s parents from? They are Ethiopian and moved to Canada in the 1980s.

Who signed The Weeknd?

In 2012, The Weeknd was signed by Republic Records.

Why is The Weeknd called XO?

Although The Weeknd is signed to Republic Records, he has his own record label, XO, that’s a subsidiary of Republic Records.

Who is The Weeknd’s producer?

Abel produces all of his albums, but of course, he had help. Everyone from DaHeala to the renowned Max Martin has produced for him. It’s worth noting that a producer by the name of Jeremy Rose claims that several songs on House of Balloons were actually his productions when he was working with The Weeknd…although he got no credit for it.

Who has The Weeknd dated?

Is The Weeknd married? Nope!

He and Bella Hadid began dating in 2015. They split in 2016, then got back together in 2018 after he serenaded her at Victoria’s Secret fashion show. During their time apart, The Weeknd and Selena Gomez made headlines with a 10-month romance in 2017. In 2019, The Weeknd and Bella Hadid parted ways…again.

As of 2024, The Weeknd remains pretty tight-lipped about his love life, though a some PDA back in Feb 2022 during the singer’s birthday did provide some insight. It seems The Weeknd is currently dating model, Simi Khandra.

What cars does The Weeknd own?

Remember when he sang about a McLaren P1 in Starboy? Well, he actually owns that car! It’s a $1.2 million ride.

He also owns a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, a Bently Mulsanne, an AMG G63 “G-Wagon,” and his beloved 1980’s Porsche 911.

You may have noticed, the listing images of his Hidden Hills house feature his insane car collection!
