Since the ranch has been put on the market last May, Sotheby’s International Realty has renamed it Sycamore Valley Ranch and the brochures sent out to potential buyers make no mention of Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson’s memory has been stripped from his Southern California Ranch Neverland!
Here the description on the brochures:
Sycamore Valley Ranch is the ultimate ranch retreat and gated estate of approx. 2,698 acres located 5 miles north of the town of Los Olivos. The main residence of approximately 12,598 sq.ft. offers 6 bedrooms, including a large first floor master suite with a private loft and two master baths.
The home was designed by Robert Altevers for William Bone in a French Normandy-style and meticulously crafted to perfection in 1982. The home is nestled between extensively landscaped gardens and a four-acre lake complete with a waterfall, incredible pastoral views to the south and majestic mountain views to the north.
An expansive covered outdoor barbeque area is perfect for entertaining and is located adjacent to the inviting pool and nearby pool house and tennis court. There are multiple structures on the property including three separate guest homes, an approx. 5,500-sq.ft. movie theater with stage, several barns, animal shelter facilities, corrals and a maintenance shop.
When Michael Jackson lived in the property, it was home to a fairground and a zoo but these have long been removed. Only the 5,000 square-foot cinema remains as final hint at the property’s once flamboyant past.
‘We hope and trust that any new owners of Neverland will respect the historical importance and special nature of this wonderful property.
‘Michael’s memory lives on in the hearts of his fans worldwide,’ the singer’s estate said in a statement in May.

They should leave it the way it was when michael was a live
Even if there’s no mention of michaels name on the brochure, who in the world doesn’t know and haven’t heard of him and the place?
That’s true! They are really stupid!
wow! I Mean Really! No Mention of Michael?I Think this man went though enough Disrespect, Abuse,for no Reason that all was found Not True and NOW This? All I can say, Is Karma, I don’t know who’s Doing This is, or Why! But You Dead Wrong and I Pray God Will Have His Hand on This, and I am Sure he does, As Michael Is a Child of God, and God doesn’t Like UGLY! So have had it, your all ignorant who did this and Karma has a way of coming around! Love to Michael Jackson, it’s “the world’s” Nature, what is happen,Not of God, so you will Fail!
This is truly said how much more does one have to go thru even in their passing
that all that was good & still is good about them be forgotten by these greedy people.
Michael Jackson’s name may not be on the brochure but His spirit lives on in what was once a little bit of heaven on earth. That no one can take away:)
Michael’s children started this renovation back in 2013, they chose to take away the fairground as it was rusting and in disrepair along with the petting zoo. They replaced it with a zen garden instead.
With it sitting empty it is haemorrhaging $3m a year from Michaels estate…..& let’s be honest, the family will not be happy that it’s eating away their meal ticket. (Not meaning his children). I feel they should put it all back and turn it into a museum, it will pay for itself. Elvis has Graceland, and Charlie Chaplin has his museum. There are still too many people who spew hatred in this world who don’t believe in innocence until proven guilty or the innocence that Michael had. Michael’s children chose to keep the boy in the moon and the neverland reference, but Michael’s dream of neverland was ruined when it was ransacked by the cops. It’s heartbreaking that for all that he gave that there is too many short sighted people who still believe the rubbish that the media spew out at whatever cost and complete disregard for the affects on people’s lives. In the UK they have tapped celebrities phones and even a murdered girls voicemail…..it’s disgusting. Let’s hope and pray that whoever buys it will treat it as the legendary gem that it is.
It’s too bad.
I wish a family member to buy Jackson’s Neverland!
This is so sad!
Oh God,
I don’t think anyone wants to buy Neverland Ranch. Michael’s ghost is there. It’s upon YouTube. Michael’s name should not be stripped. They should turn it into another Graceland
