FaZe Clan co-owner and uber-successful Youtuber Brian Rafat Awadis, better known as FaZe Rug, is moving up in the world. Or rather, moving out.

Known for his engaging content that spans from pranks to heartfelt vlogs, the YouTube phenomenon — who has a massive following of over 25 million subscribers — set up residence in a ritzy $4.4 million mansion located in Poway, California, a suburb of San Diego.

The purchase came after a stressful time that saw the Youtuber move back in with his parents due to the pressures of his growing fame, seeking comfort during a challenging time.

Now in a much better mental space, the successful content creator is enjoying life in his lavish new digs, often sharing clips filmed inside his two-story mansion. He’s even given his fans a full tour of the sprawling abode, and his followers had nothing but words of support and admiration.

And if one of his hit videos got you wondering where FaZe Rug lives, we have the scoop on the YouTube creator’s impressive Cali home.

In January 2022, FaZe Rug shelled out $4.4 million for a luxurious estate in the private gated community of The Heritage in Poway, one of the most popular suburbs around San Diego.

Sitting on a 1.04-acre lot, the 6,714-square-foot home is not the only structure on the property. There’s also an attached guest house, a gazebo, and a private sports court, with a total of 10 parking spaces.

The purchase marked a significant upgrade from his previous living arrangements, signaling a fresh start for the content creator. Prior to this, Rug had opened up about the decision to move back in with his parents for a while due to the pressures of his growing fame.

This opulent entryway, complete with a sparkling chandelier and modern, airy aesthetics, sets the stage for the rest of the home’s lavish elements. It’s this kind of dramatic flair that gives the house its soap opera-worthy feel — luxurious, inviting, and just a tad over the top.

“The best backyard in the entire world”

FaZe Rug’s mansion is not just impressive on the inside; the outdoor amenities turn his backyard into a true entertainment paradise, making it perfect for both relaxation and hosting epic gatherings — not to mention shooting wildly creative videos.

The centerpiece is a large swimming pool with an integrated spa, perfect for cooling off or enjoying a soak under the California sun. Surrounding this is a luxurious patio area equipped with comfortable seating and an outdoor fireplace, and there’s also a private sports court and a mini golf course complete with a sandpit.
