The Pursuitist has a gallery of stunning images from the mansion, and mentions the home "features walls of glass, vaulted ceilings, six bedrooms, four powder rooms, a spa, a home movie theater and seven fireplaces. There is also a detached guest house with two bedrooms and a kitchen."
Allen, whose net worth is nearly $16 billion according to Forbes, co-founded Microsoft with Bill Gates but left in the early 1980's. He is still a majority stockholder.
Allen is 60.
