The sprawling 2,830 sqm residence is set on more than six acres and features 12 bedrooms, 20 bathrooms, dedicated staff quarters, two kitchens, including a prep kitchen, a commercial-sized gym, a billiard room, library, wine and cigar cellar, and a sophisticated tasting and smoking lounge.
The interior is best described as modernist palatial, and includes a grand staircase with ornate balustrades, statement chandeliers and hanging candelabras, marble finishes, baroque wallpaper and dramatic arches throughout.
Outdoors, the expansive compound includes an oversized sports court for basketball and pickleball, a skate park, a five-hole golf course with a driving range and a resort-style pool with cascading water features.
Wahlberg bought the exclusive estate in 2023, with his wife, Rhea Durham, a former model.
Hilton and Reum, who have two children, were among dozens of celebrities who lost their multi-million-dollar mansions during the LA wildfires in January.
Hilton famously took to Instagram at the time to share an emotional post, in which she said she was "heartbroken beyond words."
"Sitting with my family, watching the news, and seeing our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience," she wrote.
Following the tragedy, Hilton mobilised her nonprofit, 11:11 Media Impact, to support wildfire relief efforts across Los Angeles.
She personally donated $100,000 to wildfire victims and local animal shelters, and partnered with GoFundMe.Org to distribute over $1 million in grants to 50 women-owned small businesses affected by the fires.

Sacked Ten star Jonathan La Paglia seemingly confirms Australian Survivor replacement rumour via cryptic social media swipe
Australian Survivor fans have claimed the show's sacked host Jonathan La Paglia confirmed swirling rumours of his replacement through a brutal social media swipe. Fans were left just as stunned as La Paglia, known affectionately as JLP, was when Network 10 on Monday confirmed the upcoming season of Survivor: Australia V The World will be the last series hosted by the star. The show's producers first told the TV veteran he was out of a job via a "clinical" and "cold" email, Daily Mail Australia reported on Wednesday. La Paglia had already filmed the show before its premiere in the coming months and took to Instagram to address the "epic blindside" on Monday. "Whoever said a blindside is the most humane way to put someone down is an idiot. It hurts like a bitch!" he wrote in his wide-ranging statement. Devout Survivor fans would know Australian Survivor: All-Stars champion David Genat, who is tipped to replace La Paglia as host, famously uttered the "blindside" line during an episode of Champions V Contenders in 2019. JLP at the time asked Genat what his motive was behind his vote at the tribal council, to which the then-contestant said a blindside was humane. 'I mean, I think a blindside is the most humane way to put someone down,' he said. Viewers are now sure this means La Paglia's seemingly innocuous remark not only mocked Genat but confirmed the hosting swap rumours. 'Oooh, he ate that,' one person said, as another added the TV star was "the master of one-liners. What a f****** icon'. More viewers lashed out at the Network 10 shakeup, largely praising David but saying he was no replacement for the longtime host. "I like David, but no. He's not JLP," one person said, while another said: "It's the dumbest decision they could make, and I love David". "I love David and think he's the perfect replacement…when Jonathan decides to leave," chimed another person. "David is an excellent player, so it will be interesting to see how he is as a host," one more elated fan said. Genat recently won $8.7 million on the US TV game show Deal or No Deal Island and is set to compete in Survivor: Australia V The World. The new season will mark the TV star's third time on the series, and he has previously hosted popular travel shows Rush and Getaway. Despite the model's impressive TV record, a production staff member said people are not convinced he's La Paglia's best replacement. "He doesn't fit the brief," the insider insider told Daily Mail Australia "He's charismatic, sure - but Survivor needs someone with gravitas. David is not Jonathan, and viewers will notice that." La Paglia has hosted Australian Survivor since 2016 and quickly earned a reputation as a staunch and earnest personality on the show. The news of his departure comes as Australian Survivor has struggled with a rating slump. The last season, Brains vs. Brawn II, saw viewership dip to 486,000 total overnight viewers, a far cry from the many millions it attracted in its prime.
