 If you've been following rock soul Superstar Fantasia Barino since the American Idol days, then you may have already seen a glimpse of her two North Carolina mentions. While she signed over one of her million-dollar homes in 2013 to the bank, she still had another luxury home to fall back on two miles away. In 2018, Fantasia sold this property too for a price way under what she paid. These days, it seems a singer still calls Charlotte North Carolina home and has shown peaks into her elegant space on social media. We'll check out a couple of houses Fantasia has lived in over the years, as well as what we know about her current abode. We even found some of the listings. In his videos, we don't reveal any addresses, and even though I've done a house tour of my own place, please do not show up at any private residences because it's not safe for anyone. Fantasia Barino, also known as her mononym Fantasia, is an R&B singer, songwriter, actress, and author who rose to fame as the winner of the third season of American Idol back in 2004. Following her victory, she released her debut song I Believe, which got to number one on the Billboard charts. She also released her first album Free Yourself, which she went on to be certified platinum and earned Fantasia three Grammy nominations in 2006. That same year, she released her self-titled second album Fantasia, featuring the single When I See You, which also did quite well, and topped the Billboard R&B and hip-hop charts for weeks. Fantasia even played the role of Celine in the Broadway musical The Color Purple, for which she won a theater world award and returned her Broadway again a few years later in After Midnight. The songstress finally won herself a Grammy in 2010 for her best female R&B vocal performance. At the time of this recording, Fantasia has an estimated net worth about $3 million, and while she has a child with one of her exes, she and her current husband Kendall Taylor are expecting their first baby together. The couple still lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, which is where all of Fantasia's past homes have been as well. Hey guys, it's Karen. Today we're bringing you another house tour here on Famous Entertainment. We're noticing a lot of copycat channels popping up, but we're the original house tour connoisseurs and 95% of you watching aren't subscribed, so hit that subscribe button and ring that bell. We post a new video daily. I've seen a few of you guys request this one, so today we're taking a look at three properties that Fantasia Barino has called home over the years. Don't forget to follow me on Instagram to chat, and as usual, let me know whose house tour is up next in those comments down below. Now let's get into this video. Around the end of 2008, Fantasia's main home in Charlotte, North Carolina was in foreclosure and due to be auctioned off in January 2009 due to unpaid taxes and reimbursing a company she took a loan from. The auction was cancelled at the time, but a few years later in 2013, Fantasia had to hand this home over to the bank after failing to pay her mortgage. This 6,600 square foot pawnfront home was located in the Glenmore Lakes Development in the Piper Glen community and was the same mansion featured on MTV Cribs back in the day. This neighborhood was an exclusive development with customer state homes and beautiful lake and golf course views. Hey what's up everybody? Welcome to North Carolina. This is my house. I'm Fantasia. Guys come on in. I'm just hanging out with my family. Walking in, there was an epic double height entry with winding stairs as well as five beds and five baths throughout. Property records show Ms. Barino acquired the home in 2007 for $1.3 million and attempted to sell it for $800K, but that didn't work out unfortunately. Fantasia had a music room with piano and nearby living room with double height ceilings, large windows and a fireplace. At the time she also decked the place out in a lot of gold detailing because I'm sure it was cool at the time and decorated the dining room herself as well. From old listing materials, we can see the home was left a bit outdated and apparently did not complete the full renovation. Maybe that's why these days the house was last priced at a low $125K. Other features of Fantasia's previous mini mansion included two master suites, one with a black jacuzzi tub in the en suite, more fireplaces throughout, and an exterior balcony. Elsewhere on the property, there was a swimming pool and spa as well as an additional pool house. While what happened to that home we just looked at was all types of unfortunate for Fantasia. Don't worry, she still had another 4,600 square foot luxury home to fall back on only two miles away. It may even have stepped down from Glenmore Lakes but not by much as it was a two-story brick home boasting fancy features throughout like a screened-in porch with marble tile floors and a wooden roof perched on half an acre of rolling grass and trees. This house was still in the Piper Glen Golf Course and offered four bedrooms plus two bonus rooms and additional bed that was converted into a walking closet. Built in 1996, had bright and airy interiors throughout as well as 3.5 baths, the master bath even offering a sauna. Fantasia bought this house in 2004 for $740,000 and in 2018 when she decided to move on from it it dropped down to $479K. Clearly she was hoping for a quick sale. Reportedly this bargain price reflects the need for renovations to the home and listing materials explained it was a unique opportunity to redo their own. Inside Fantasia could choose to spend her time in the music room or get glammed up in her bright pink bedroom turned walking closet. The master suite was black walled and had casino style carpeting which was something that might not appeal to every homeowner but could easily be changed. The modern kitchen was finished with stainless steel details and a red cabinetry another bold choice but again could be changed. Nearby the formal dining room was light filled thanks to windows all around. Other features included a breakfast milk, a stair landing that was converted into a lounge space and family room with fireplace. Unfortunately despite the gorgeous gardens and space to relax on the property this home didn't have a swimming pool like that last one. You win some you lose some. In the end Fantasia sold the place for $465K. While we don't officially know the details on Fantasia's current living situation it seems that even though she sold that last house in 2018 she's still happily living in Charlotte. From her Instagram her own Instagram and the virtual concert she gave fans in June from the music venue The Film or Charlotte it seems she didn't stray from the city. Thanks to social media we can catch glimpses at what it's like to live in Fantasia's current family home. Her large tan shingled residence is located in a stately neighborhood with traditional vintage looking cast iron street lamps and perfectly trimmed hedges. Outdoors she's a deep pool that lights up at night giving off enchanting sea green hues. The surrounding patio area boasts wicker furniture and two covered latches. We can see this house is decidedly more modern with a lot of white walls marble floors and super contemporary fireplaces. In this room there's even a fireplace built into the wall which is made of marble itself. Basically from Instagram posts we can determine that different textures of whites, blacks and gold are the order of the day inside the house. She also gives at home interviews from a large throne style arm chair rolled black and paisley patterns. Alright I think I'll bring this house to an end right there. After looking at the homes of Fantasia Burino what did you guys think? After she had to get rid of those two nearby properties in Charlotte North Carolina do you feel like she's upgraded? Cause I sure do. She reportedly stayed in the same city and from her feet it looks like her current home is above and beyond her previous properties.
