The mansion which has 'gorgeous canyon views' was said to be constructed in 2003, and features a two-storey foyer, dual offices, a ten-car garage and a wine cellar.
The house may be familiar to some as it was featured on former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and his wife's reality show, Meet The Barkers.
Avril, 27, and Deryck, 31, purchased the property off the couple in 2006, the year that they married.

The stunning gourmet kitchen and breakfast area adjoin the family area creating a spacious room, and the grand dining room opens up to a private courtyard.
The master bedroom in the house has been made into almost a mini-household, featuring a kitchenette, fireplace, patio, custom walk-in closets and dual baths.
The lower level basement has a wine cellar, tasting room, large gym with bath and sauna, a huge car garage, laundry and staff quarters.
A serene and picturesque setting, the private backyard features outdoor covered living room, pool, spa, kitchen and BBQ, and expansive lawns that flow to gorgeous canyon views beyond.
Avril and Deryck divorced in November 2010. The singer was dating Brody Jenner, Kim Kardashian's stepbrother.
While the pair were said to have split they were spotted getting cosy over dinner at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills over the weekend, according to People.com.
A source told the website: 'They had drinks on the patio and moved inside for dinner.
'They were kissing and cuddling and were very affectionate. They definitely didn't look broken-up.'
