The biggest lottery winner ever now has a mansion in the Hollywood Hills.

California lottery officials last month named Edwin Castro the winner of the record $2.04 billion Powerball drawing from November, the largest prize in U.S. lottery history.

Castro bought a $25.5 million mansion in the foothills of Los Angeles County according to real estate publication Dirt and the Los Angeles Times.

The home sold on March 1, according to Zillow records.

It’s estimated refinance payment: $154,350 a month.

The specs

The nearly 14,000-square-foot mansion sits on a 0.58-acre lot and features an infinity pool, five bedrooms, seven bathrooms and other common spaces. The main room is on the third floor and has its own balcony.

Most of the house, which sports an outdoor infinity pool and fireplace, is made up of glass walls, photos show.

‘Shocked and ecstatic’

Castro did not appear at a media conference announcing his win last month but sent a written statement to officials saying he was “shocked and ecstatic” to have won.

He wrote he was glad California public schools benefit from the lottery because he identified as “being educated in the California public education system.”
