Wahlberg, 51, bought the property for $8.25 million in 2009 and completed the home’s construction in 2014.
On the main level, a two-story wood-paneled library includes a chandelier and fireplace.
The gourmet kitchen comes equips with two islands, and a separate prep kitchen.
The home includes a home theater, a professional gym and a wine and cigar cellar.
The grounds have a 5-hole golf course, golf driving range, a sports court, a resort-like grotto pool, a skate park, and a guest house.
The decision to sell the property came as the actor and his family decided to move away from Hollywood’s epicenter.
In October, Wahlberg, 51, toldThe Talkthat he and his family exchanged California for Nevada.
“I want to be able to work from home,” the actor added.
Wahlberg said he “moved to California many years ago to pursue acting,” and has “only made a couple of movies in the entire time that I was there.”
