PHOTOS: Rihanna Buys $12 Million Los Angeles Home

Rihanna, 24, may currently be sitting poolside for the holidays and taking it easy in her native Barbados, but when she finally does come home to Los Angeles, she'll have her new, $12 million mansion to cozy into.

The 11,000 square-foot, Pacific Palisades, Calif., home boasts seven sprawling bedrooms and nine bathrooms, with large, open spaces, 14-foot ceilings and walls of window throughout, reports AOL Real Estate.

And the outdoor area of Rihanna's new pad includes a luxurious pool and spa, a 6000 square-foot garden and an outdoor BBQ area, bar and sundeck.

Like most things in her life seem, Rihanna's most recent extravagant purchase was far from an unambiguous blessing. The home acquisition came only after the hit "Diamonds" singer learned she had to sell her Beverly Hills home, which she had only owned a year, due to leaks that caused major damage in several parts of the house, according to the Huffington Post.

It could be that Rihanna will be enjoying her new palatial abode solo. There have been rumors that she and Chris Brown, 23, with whom she was recently rumored to have reunited, have split again. She recently posted online, "Being single sucks. The only thing I get to do anymore is whatever the f–k I want to do."
