It's easy to forget sometimes that Metallica are really, really rich. Sure, we recently uncovered the net worth of both Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield but it really didn't sink in for me until I saw this house listing for a huge five acre home that once belonged to James Hetfield.

The house is located in Novato, California and is going for a cool $3.4 million. It's a 4-bed, 3-bath, 3-half bath house that features a timber outdoor kitchen and saltwater pool. Hetfield sold it to the current owners who are now listing the property. Oh, and there is video: http://www.vimeo.com/64588983

My god, the place is beautiful. The whole time I was watching the video, I couldn't help but hear James' wife shouting at him to come down those stairs cause dinner is ready.

Even still this is nowhere near as insane as Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris' opulent $11 million home but nicer that Ozzy and Sharon's beach house.
