Take a Peek Inside Paisley Park, Prince’s Mansion and Creative Studio
Located 20 minutes from Minneapolis in Chanhassen, MN, Paisley Park was more than just a home for Prince. It was where he wrote, recorded, and even performed. The 65,000 square foot, $10 million estate, which sits on nine acres of land, was completed in 1988 as a place for Prince to live and work away from the chaos of Hollywood and New York City. There’s always something going on at Paisley Park. In celebration of his upcoming birthday on June 7, his estate just announced a brand-new posthumous album titled Timeless—a 10-track collection of rare and unreleased music spanning his entire career—with exclusive sneak-peek listening sessions launching at the estate this week during Prince Celebration 2026. Just six months after the “Diamonds and Pearls” artist was found dead in this home on April 21, 2016, Prince’s dream of opening Paisley Park to the public came true when it began welcoming fans from all over the world for tours. Because this massive compound is a place you have to see to believe, check out Prince’s Paisley Park estate for yourself here first and then head to Minnesota.
