The outdoor pool area with windows and French doors from every corner of the house. The home was designed for entertaining, Fran Jenkins said. “The people who bought the home, what they like about it was the history with the recording studio and nostalgia.” “It is a great home with a lot of history behind it,” Fran Jenkins added.

The home was intended for someone with a passion for music with the professional state-of- the-art music studio and recording room, Fran Jenkins said. “It definitely narrows the buyer’s choice, but the people she ended up selling it to love the house the way it was,” Jenkins said. Jenkins said it was a challenge to sell the home because the downstairs bedrooms were turned into office and homes don’t typically include a recording studio. The home had balconies where people would gather and all of the family members would cook, Bill Jenkins said. Knight bought the home for her late mother and it was used for family gatherings with the double kitchens, great room and large dining area overlooking the backyard. “It has beautiful grounds and a pool and a fountain in the backyard,” William Jenkins said. There’s a great room with a separate kitchen that wraps around the pool area. It has six bedrooms and four baths, recording studio, sunken living room, cathedral wood ceilings, four fireplaces and an open kitchen with island, double ovens custom wood cabinetry and granite countertop. It’s situated on a half-acre and measures more than 6,500 square feet. The home, which was built in 1971, was acquired by Knight in 1997 for $695,000. The sale lists the buyer as an LLC, according to William Jenkins, the owner of Nevada Realty Connection who with his wife, Fran, handled the transaction on behalf of Knight. The two-story, Mediterranean-style home in the gated Equestrian Estates community was acquired by a couple originally from Spain. A Las Vegas home owned by Grammy-award winning singer and Motown legend Gladys Knight and her husband has sold for $720,000.
