Mariah Carey leaves Atlanta for New York City

Mariah Carey has had enough of Atlanta. After being the victim of a home burglary back in July, Carey has put her nine-bedroom, 12,575 square foot mansion on the market for a reasonable $6.5 million. Carey is being represented by Shanna Bradley of Ansley Real Estate Christie’s International in Atlanta.

The multi-platinum, five-time Grammy winning singer was vacationing in Capri, Italy, when burglars broke into her home. This was another in a string of high-priced home invasions in Atlanta. Law enforcement warns that criminals are being targeting celebrities sharing out-of-town photos and videos on social media, letting friends — and foes — know their place of residence is vulnerable.

“I will always have a close connection to Atlanta! It was a perfect moment during COVID, but I will continue to spend time in New York City, my long-term residence,” Mariah told Atlanta brokerage Ansley Real Estate Christie’s International. wrdw.com
