Tyler Perry’s ‘Diary Of A Mad Black Woman’ Mansion Sold In Atlanta Auction



The mansion sits on 11.4 acres and features a massive, two-story primary bedroom suite.


The former home of filmmaker Tyler Perry now belongs to the highest bidder. The mansion depicted in his 2005 film “Diary Of A Mad Black Woman” was officially sold at an Atlanta auction on Nov. 19.

Platinum Luxury Auctions sold the home for an undisclosed price during the bidding. However, one can assume it was worth quite a bird, as the property spans over 11.4 acres and has been on the market for 6 million dollars since Perry sold the mansion in 2018. The pristine home was featured on the auction company’s social media page, promoting its upcoming sale “without reserve.”

“The tri-level residence offers 16,500 sf of living space, with six beds, seven full and one half bath,” detailed a press release on the high-profile abode. “Designed in the style of the grand manors of the European countryside, the property features a central, neatly manicured parcel in the shape of a lengthy rectangle, surrounded by a perimeter of dense, mature landscaping for added privacy.”

The president and founder of Platinum, Trayor Lesnock, also explained more of the “peaceful setting” within the home.

“Arriving at the property is like being transported somewhere in the western European countryside,” said Lesnock. “It’s such a peaceful setting with a beautiful, natural surround. Mr. Perry had a keen eye in selecting the parcel.”

Some of the home’s most notable features are the massive two-story bedroom suite, which covers almost 4,000 square feet, and the fenced tennis court with stadium-standard lighting. The property itself is located in Chattahoochee Hills, less than 30 minutes outside the city of Atlanta.

While Perry has not been the owner or resident for the past five years, the home is still reminiscent of his standout works, with its new owners now holding a part of Black cinematic history.
