If John didn't want to go upstairs in his place I'm sure he wouldn't have to. I think there might be plenty enough ground floor rooms to rely on. Or install a Stanna

One of the articles above said the McVie's sold in LA and upgraded as they spend more time there now, so this doesn't seem a surprise. Lovely home though, wonder if he moved his boat? I have heard anecdotally that Julie spends time in LA when John is on the road, which doesn't seem a surprise since Julie's from there,their daughter is there, etc.

Here is a snippet from another article on this. It points out how he sold his Hawaii house to Mick and sold his Brentwood house for yet a bigger house in Brentwood.
McVie was previously residing full-time in Hawaii, but now he’s heading back to Los Angeles. He already upgraded his West Coast digs, with the purchase of a $6.8 million Brentwood estate in April this year. That was a few months before he*sold novelist Raymond Chandler’s former Brentwood home in July, for its asking price of $2.995 million—McVie managed to sell that house in just over two weeks, so hopefully he finds similar interest for this Hawaiian abode. Perhaps McVie will scoop up another piece of Hawaii real estate at some point in the future. After all, he has been a fan of the islands for quite some time, as he once owned a home on Maui, which he sold to his Fleetwood Mac bandmate Mick Fleetwood around 2003

Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham is back looking for a buyer in Brentwood
Following a six-month hiatus, Lindsey Buckingham has put a newly built home in Brentwood back on the market at its original $22.5 million asking price. That’s one way to refresh a listing. The longtime Fleetwood Mac member bought the property five years ago for $5.8 million, but the new build was completed last year. The modern Georgian-style three-story house has wood-shingle siding, dormer windows and white trim that pops against the light brown exterior. The white-walled interiors include formal living and dining rooms, dual kitchens, a library, six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. A screening room features a marble-topped bar and screening room. A guesthouse sits across from the swimming pool for a total of close to 11,000 square feet of living space. Terraces, a fire pit, an outdoor shower, lawns and mature landscaping complete the three-quarter acre of grounds. Buckingham, 68, gained fame as the frontman and lead guitarist for the British American rock band Fleetwood Mac. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the group in 1998. As a solo artist, he has released nine albums. David Offer of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties is the listing agent.

You know I’m surprised... Lindsey actually has excellent arhitechual taste. That is a very classic looking colonial style home and NOT at all like the McMansions that you see in CA

He wasn't involved in this other than financing his wife to renovate and decorate it.

If no one thought it was worth buying at the original asking price six months ago, they aren't going to suddenly think so now. When a house doesn't sell, it tells you the market doesn't think it's worth what you are asking, even though it's a lovely house. I'm betting their real estate agent wanted them to come down in the price at least some, but the fact they didn't is interesting. He bought it and his wife spent four years tearing it down and rebuilding and decorating it. I'm sure they spent a fortune and would like to make all the money they spent back and then a profit too. But clearly the market has spoken, and relisting at the same price doesn't make sense.

Outdoors, there are covered and uncovered patios, a blue-tiled swimming pool and a barbecue area. A motor court and multiple garages also lie within about a half-acre of grounds.

The 72-year-old McVie joined Fleetwood Mac in the late 1960s and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the band.
