Queen<\/strong> drummer Roger Taylor <\/strong> wants to be a real estate champion. He is attempting to get in the rhythm of selling his 1933 Hollywood Hills hacienda, listing the perfectly preserved Spanish Revival for $6,195,000.<\/p>\n

It appears the British-born rocker has been renting out the Los Angeles<\/a> property for some time, listing it for as much as $20,000 per month and most recently for $18,000.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s understandable how both renters and full-time residents would adore this 4,368-square-foot home on King\u2019s Road, coincidentally just a stone\u2019s throw from Queen\u2019s Way, both overlooking the notoriously action-filled section of the Sunset Strip.<\/p>\n

Taylor\u2019s 0.3-acre property is a kingdom in and of itself, filled with mature trees, verdant vines, and native plants.<\/p>\n

The four-bedroom, 4.5-bath dwelling has the sumptuous features of a Spanish-style home of the 1930s, complete with the tile roof, thick plaster walls with arched passageways, brick, wood-plank and terra-cotta tiles underfoot, multiple fireplaces, beamed ceilings, and wrought-iron balconies.<\/p>\n

Colorful Spanish riser tiles distinguish the staircase, and the original stained-glass windows filter in multihued light.<\/p>\n

A unique stone fireplace adds a bit of timeless whimsy to the family room.<\/p>\n

Certain rooms have been skillfully updated to blend modern convenience with historical charm, including the spacious white-on-white kitchen with marble-topped counters and a large center island.<\/p>\n

The bathrooms have also been modernized with nods to the past. The primary has double vanities, a shower with book-matched marble, and a free-standing tub. The powder room has just a hint of the original tile, surrounded by new and colorful flowered wallpaper.<\/p>\n

The main common rooms open to an expansive brick patio with a fire pit, dining area, and views of the city.<\/p>\n

The backyard seems like it could be an Andalusian garden of yore, with its wrought-iron details, water fountain, and lagoonlike pool.<\/p>\n

A fun fact about Taylor, 74, is that he turned down the opportunity to become the drummer for Genesis<\/strong>, a position eventually filled by Phil Collins<\/strong>. At the time, Taylor and Freddie Mercury<\/strong> were on the verge of starting Queen. Taylor not only played the drums for the iconic group, but he also sang vocals (often falsetto) and composed some of Queen\u2019s hits, including \u201cThese Are the Days of Our Lives,\u201d \u201cUnder Pressure,\u201d and \u201cRadio Ga Ga.\u201d He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.<\/p>\n
