How much does playing Minecraft for 8.8 million subscribers pay? Enough to afford a $4.575 million mansion in the Hollywood Hills. As for the house itself, it’s an imposing three-story, 4,100-square-foot home, with an incredible view of the Sunset Strip and a Monopoly motif, courtesy of the home’s previous owner, who must have been really into Monopoly. That’s just the living room of Casa Sparklez, and if you think the kitchen or any of the other rooms in the house is going to look more like those in the home of a typical 23-year-old, you’re about to be disappointed. In a somewhat interesting coincidence, this house is adjacent to the relatively lavish $70 million mansion purchased late last year by the creator of Minecraft, Markus Persson. Hopefully Jordan Maron remembers to send him a “thank you” bottle of champagne or something from time to time, since Persson essentially created his new neighbor’s route to fame and fortune.
