Metallica Guitarist Puts Home On Market for $8,995,000

Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett has reduced the price on his Pacific Heights home, located at 2505 Divisadero St San Francisco, CA 94115.  It’s considered in the Georgian architecture style and had 9 beds, 7 baths.

The Wall Street Journal reports, “The listing price is just under $9 million, down nearly 30% from the $12.5 million asking price in 2005. Mr. Hammett, 46, paid $2.56 million for the gated, Georgian-style home in 1993.”

The home also has a music studio (of course) and a basement billiard room complete with bar.

Hammett has been a member of the band since 1983 and is credited with developing many of the band’s most recognizable riffs, including the one in “Enter Sandman.”

According to the Metallica Web site:

[Hammett] lives in San Francisco along with a large collection of old Hollywood movie memorabilia, his two dogs Darla and Hoku, plus cats . . . Oh, and for the record, Kirk plays his guitar at least 361 days a year.
