Neverland Ranch, now known more mundanely as Sycamore Valley Ranch, is up for sale for a cool $100 million, according to the [_Wall Street Journal_](http://www.wsj.com/articles/michael-jacksons-onetime-neverland-lists-for-100-million-1432838117 "undefined"). Jackson bought the 2,700-acre estate in Los Olivos, Calif. for $19.5 million in 1987 and lived there until the mid-2000s, when financial troubles forced him to leave the location. Unfortunately, the amusement park rides and zoo animals that made Neverland Ranch famous are now gone, though there is still at least one llama on the premises for some reason. The train station and railroad tracks that Jackson built are also still on the property. Don’t expect this to become the next Graceland, though. The person selling the ranch is specifically looking for a buyer who doesn’t plan to turn the place into a museum for the singer. “We’re not going to giving tours,” realtor Suzanne Perkins told the _Journal_. ### Losing Neverland: An Unusual Portrait of Michael Jackson  White Swarovski Crystal Glove Henry Leutwyler  Neverland In Crates Henry Leutwyler  Hollywood Walk of Fame Jacket 1984 Henry Leutwyler  Triumph Tour Shirt Bowtie 1981 Henry Leutwyler  Triumph Tour Capezio Shoe Top 1981 Henry Leutwyler  Triumph Tour Capezio Shoe Sole 1981 Henry Leutwyler  Triumph Tour Shirt Bottom 1981 Henry Leutwyler  Triumph Tour Sock 1981 Henry Leutwyler  White Wings Henry Leutwyler  Wizard of Oz Figures No 1 Henry Leutwyler  Gold Key Henry Leutwyler  Porcelain Angel Henry Leutwyler  Mickey Mouse Broche Henry Leutwyler  Michael Jackson, Peter Pan First Edition Henry Leutwyler  Michael Jackson, Crown Henry Leutwyler  Black Fedora Henry Leutwyler ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3900501/michael-jackson-neverland-ranch/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3900501/michael-jackson-neverland-ranch/"},"headline":"You Can Buy Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch","datePublished":"2015-05-28T19:57:26.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T05:03:17.731Z","description":"But all the giraffes are gone","url":"https://time.com/3900501/michael-jackson-neverland-ranch/","keywords":["real estate","michael jackson","pubdesk"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt164801344fdd7f39/698852135f570ff097b1bb54/gettyimages-138250593.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Victor Luckerson","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/victor-luckerson/"}],"articleSection":"Business","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt164801344fdd7f39/698852135f570ff097b1bb54/gettyimages-138250593.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Neverland Ranch","caption":"Neverland Ranch","creditText":"NBC NewsWire—NBC NewsWire via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/business/","name":"Business"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/real-estate/","name":"real estate"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3900501/michael-jackson-neverland-ranch/","name":"You Can Buy Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Michael Jackson Rehearsal Footage","description":"Two days before his death, Michael Jackson performed an energetic rehearsal for his London tour.
