The buyer is reportedly CBS President and CEO Les Moonves.
Allen paid $25 million for the gorgeous white-walled contemporary home in 2010, though he apparently spent little time there since the sound of the ocean kept him up at night, a source told the Post. He "hated the sound of the ocean," the source said.
The house is located on Malibu's ultra-pricey Carbon Beach, a stretch of oceanfront property that's been dubbed "Billionaire's Beach" for its many high-profile residents. David Geffen, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Eli Broad, and Larry Ellison all own property here, with Ellison owning as many as a dozen.
