HIP-HOP mogul P-Diddy’s £2million mansion has been left to rot after being abandoned by the rapper 17 years ago.
The once stunning eight-bedroom property in Atlanta has slowly crumbled to pieces and is now littered with dust, dirt and graffiti.

Known as Casa Nirelle, Diddy, 54, first got his hands on the property in 2003 when he paid $2.6million (£2million) for it – adding to his already pricey collection of houses across the US.
Sat in Dunwoody, just outside of Atlanta, the seven-acre property boasts a whopping 16 Italian baroque-style bathrooms across the multiple floors.
According to an old online listing for the home there is also a library, games room, home theatre, wine cellar and an impressive five fireplaces within it’s walls.
The home even boasts its own elevator it is so big.
Across the whole mansion parts of the floor have been ripped apart with many of the staircases missing beams.
Elsewhere, pictures show doors hanging off their hinges.
One of the living rooms, with it’s chandelier still intact but surrounded by misery.
Graffiti plagues the mirrors on the walls and ripped up floorboards have been left on the ground next to boarded up windows.
As the battered kitchen looks half-finished with boxes flung across the floor and foam insulation hanging from the ceilings.
Rubbish sits on the floor as unpainted marks on the walls taint the room’s interior.
At the heart of it, a marble kitchen island sits collecting dust with cookers, cables and empty bottles on top of it.
From the outside, the 20,000sq ft mega home is still as luxurious as ever with great white walls and tall, healthy trees sitting on the beautiful grounds.
But the grand gates have been kept locked for years with next to no one ever entering the grounds since.
Causing the once beautiful 60,000-gallon saltwater swimming pool and neighbouring jacuzzi water to turn a murky green with smashed up tiles floating beside them.
The giant tennis courts and five-car garage on the grounds have also sat unused and unwanted nearing disrepair.
Diddy abandoned the mansion amid the late 2000s housing crisis swarming the US.
He was looking to renovate the property and move back in but never stumped up the cash needed for the funding, the New York Post reports.
The founder of Bad Boy Records ended up selling the home in 2007 for just $1.3 million (£1.02million) – losing out massively on what he originally paid.
But the real estate investment trust company who snagged up the home never managed to find a new owner leaving it vacant just as Diddy left it.

HOME RAIDS AND LAWSUITS
The US music mogul has been the subject of several lawsuits, including for sexual assault, in recent months.
And on Monday afternoon two of Diddy’s homes were raided by cops.
His places in Miami and California were thoroughly searched as part of a federal investigation into sex trafficking allegations against the rapper, The Associated Press reported.
Homeland Security has been tight-lipped about what was being searched for but videos from the California raid showed it completely turned upside down.
Cabinets were thrown open and papers, clothes, and other items were scattered around the home.
As doors were ripped off their frames and secret safes expertly cracked open.
Diddy’s attorney, Aaron Dyer, blasted the raids as an “overuse of military-level force” in the team’s first remarks since federal agents stormed the properties.
Dyer went on to clarify that Combs “was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities.”
“Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way,” Dyer said.
“This unprecedented ambush – paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence – leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits.
“There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations.
“Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.”
Recent lawsuits against P-Diddy
P-DIDDY was hit with a wave of lawsuits in late 2023 and early 2024 with shocking allegations of sex trafficking and sexual assault.
Cassie, Diddy’s longtime girlfriend, sued him in November 2023, claiming she endured “a cycle of abuse, violence, and sex trafficking” until their relationship ended in 2018.
Diddy and Cassie settled the suit the day after it was filed.
Diddy was also hit with two more lawsuits a week later. Joi Dickerson accused Diddy of drugging and raping her and filming the attack when she was a 19-year-old college student in January 1991.
A spokesperson for the star branded them “purely a money grab and nothing more”.
A second accuser in a separate lawsuit then claimed that Diddy and another man sexually assaulted her and a friend in 1990 or 1991 before showing up at her apartment and beating her several days later.
Diddy was sued again in December by a woman who claimed he and two men gang-raped her in 2003 when she was 17 years old.
In a statement after the accusations surfaced, Diddy described all the claims against him as “sickening”.
He said: “Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.”
But then in February 2024, a music producer filed another lawsuit alleging Combs coerced him to solicit sex workers and pressure him into having sex with them.
Diddy’s lawyer said they “have overwhelming, indisputable proof that his claims are complete lies”.
