Real Estate

Kelly Clarkson has installed a new playground in her the $5.5 million Toluca Lake mansion she purchased last month, exclusive photos obtained by The Post show.

Inflatable pool toys, bicycles, a trampoline and various toys litter the backyard. The playground is decked out with a slide, swings and a playhouse, photos show.

The “Stronger” singer and her kids are settling in after the court awarded her primary custody of 7-year-old River Rose and 5-year-old Remington Alexander, whom she shares with her estranged husband Brandon Blackstock, Page Six previously reported. Montana resident Blackstock has visitation rights at Clarkson’s house, and they will also visit him on certain holidays.

The “Since U Been Gone” singer bought the mansion for $5.445 million after finally selling her Hendersonville, Tennessee, mansion for $6.3 million after four years on the market. The location northwest of Los Angeles will allow her to continue shooting “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” which is slated to replace “The Ellen Show’s daytime television slot.

The purchase comes a year after Clarkson, a coach on NBC’s “The Voice,” filed for divorce after seven years of marriage.

The “American Idol” alum‘s five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home spans almost 5,000 square feet, according to Los Angeles assessor’s records.

Upon approaching the gated estate, guests can park in the motor court or in the three-car garage before stepping up to the red brick patio, which teases visitors with leaded glass windows peeking inside the dining room.

Inside the black-painted door with transom windows is an entry with hardwood floors and a natural color palette, listing photos show.

While its earliest owners are unknown, it was home to Old Western movie actor Robert Fuller in 1972, “Route 66” star Dean Moray in 1989 and “Cheers” producers and writers Edward and Cheri Steinkellner in 1992, according to public records.

“Magnum Force” and “Spenser: For Hire” actor Robert Urich, who died in 2002 at age 55, leased the home in the late 1990s, according to a 2000 LA Times article.

This century, Beach Boys and the Monkees concert producer Kevin Allyn and his wife, Robyn Allyn, owned the house by 2000 and appear to have unloaded it in 2017 or 2018, when the house sold to an anonymous LLC that renovated the property, according to public records.
