When the glitz and glam of Las Vegas meets the eccentric tastes of a legendary pop star - you get one hell of a house.

Michael Jackson's mega mansion has just been put up for sale in Las Vegas, Nevada, for an eye watering $9.5million, with fans able to eat, sleep and lounge where the icon quietly lived out his days.

The singer never owned the giant sprawling property, deciding instead to rent it from 2007 until his death from a drug overdose in 2009, as a space for him and his children to live away from the glare of the public eye.

Fit for a king: The ymega compound of the late Michael Jackson has just been put up for sale in Las Vegas, Nevada, with fans able to live where their formal icon quietly lived out his days for $9.5 million

Dubbed the 'Thriller Villa' in its listing, the completely walled-in property is 1.7acres and features a staggering 24,276-square-foot main house plus a 2,983-square foot guest house and even its own medieval chapel.

Listed by Nevada celebrity agent Kristen Routh Silberman, the compound was built originally by theater owner Horst Schmidt in the 1950s in Mexico and transported brick-by-brick to Nevada.

It then changed hands a few times before it was rented to Michael after he returned from his infamous time in Bahrain and the pop star decided he wanted to stay out of the public eye.

It was at this home that his family desperately tried to visit him at with the King Of Pop refusing them to let them through the gate, his youngest brother Randy allegedly tried to crash through the gate to stage an intervention one time.

After the late star's untimely passing, its owner decided to turn the home into a shrine to its famous resident, recreating furnishings which looked like those Michael had favoured.

The seven bedroom, 12 bath Mediterranean meets medieval castle home is now filled with artwork featuring the icon's visage and there is even a replica of the boy in the moon statue found at Michael's most famous home Neverland.

There are still some very important elements that existed during the King Of Pop's time according to the listing, including the master bedroom.

The master is an entire floor and has everything a reclusive pop star could need, a wet bar, a fireplace and giant mirrors, the original of which still stand and are where Michael, the listing claims, rehearsed his choreography.

He could have done plenty of singing in the shower too, as the stone bathroom features a huge shower and three sinks with a vanity.

Another original feature is the private art gallery/vault which is hidden in the home's basement, which was put in by its first owner.

Play us a tune: Inside the home is also a roped off grand piano, however, it is not clear from the listing if that was the singer's but there is a life sized painting of Michael sitting on a throne is lent against the wall next to it

The 8500-square-foot basement is accessed from the outside by a tunnel and was used by the star to drive into so that he could avoid paparazzi.

While completely refurnished, the home's attention grabbing salon was said to be the Billie Jean singer's favourite and now a larger painting of him sits above the massive stone fireplace.

The room currently is furnished with large sofas, rich tapestry, art and a dining table and features wood floors, exposed wood beams and a Murano glass chandelier.

But what is a Las Vegas property without the ability to hold quickie weddings? Don't worry the Thriller Villa has got that covered too.

Outside in the expansive grounds is a two story medieval chapel which - a lot like Caesar's Palace casino - has a painted sky roof.

Recluse-ready: There are still some very important elements that existed during the King Of Pop's time according to the listing, including the master suite which is an entire floor and has everything a reclusive pop star could need, a wet bar, a fireplace and giant mirrors, the original of which still stand and are where Michael, the listing claims, rehearsed his choreography

Just hit play: He could have done plenty of singing in the shower too with a bathroom the size of most New York studios

Hit those high notes: The stone bathroom features a huge shower, which while outdated, would have great acoustics

Hollywood helpful: While hidden from view from the outside, there is a tunnel that leads to a 8500-square-foot basement which was used by the star to drive into so that he could avoid paparazzi

Rooms in rooms: Also in the basement is a private art gallery/vault and a guest suite with mini kitchen, bra, seating area and ensuite

No space unaccounted for: The room currently is furnished with large sofas, rich tapestry, art and a dining table and features wood floors, exposed wood beams and a Murano glass chandelier

Capable of sitting over 70, the chapel also features numerous religious statues and artifacts as well as a Crown of Thorns Chandelier.

According to the listing, if weddings are not your thing and you are feeling inspiration from its former resident, the acoustics are pitch perfect and the chapel can be used as a recording studio.

While the home may be fit for a King Of Pop, its interiors are undoubtedly not to everyone's tastes but its grounds are hard to say no to.

Taking inspiration from the grande homes of Mexico, the house has a stoned inner courtyard with a beautiful fountain while around the home embraces the desert of Las Vegas with cultivated succulents and ornate statues.

There is also plenty of space to have horses, which no doubt Paris Jackson enjoyed.

Keen to play up its past, the realtor has released a over-the-top virtual tour video for the home, complete with a dance music version of Michael's Beat It.

All the touches: The sacred space also features numerous religious statues and artifacts as well as a Crown of Thorns Chandelier

Architectural drama: The chapel's altar is framed by archways and guests enter through heavy wooden doors just like you would a church

Renovator's delight: As the current owner has wanted to keep it like when the pop icon lived there, some of the home needs updating a little unless the new buyer also wants their own mansion shrine to the King Of Pop

Jackson Seven: While Michael would not let his family visit him at the property - despite their efforts - there was space everyone with the property featuring seven bedrooms in the main house and guest house

Cheers! Aside from a wet bar in the master, a dry bar in the guest suite, there is also an ornate bar on the main floor off the salon

Ups and downs: This is not the first time the home has come on the market since Michael's death, in fact it has been listed four times previously only to have the listing removed with prices ranging from $4.8m to $19.5m

Interlaced into the sweeping shots of the home is video of Michael moon dancing and other performances, all the while the dance beat goes on.

This is not the first time the home has come on the market since Michael's death, in fact it has been listed four times previously only to have the listing removed.

In 2011 it was once again listed at just $4.8m for two months before it was once again yanked from the market.

For three years the home was not up for sale but then, in 2014, it hit the market for a staggering $19.5m, but now with Sotheby's agent it is $10m cheaper.

While Micheal rented the property until his death he was at his other home on North Carolwood Drive in the Holmby Hills on June 25, 2009, when he passed away from from anacute propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication.
