The seven-bedroom house where singer Aaron Carter drowned in his bathtub after taking Xanax has sold for $765,000 – after the bathroom was completely renovated.
The house, in Lancaster, Calif., sold on Wednesday for $335,000 more than Carter, who died aged 34, bought it in 2019.
Carter’s body was found in his home on November 5, 2022. Authorities said in the report that the artist had “slipped underwater” and drowned under the influence of the substances.
Coroner officials ruled out drowning as his primary cause of death in January, TMZ reported, as medical examiners have not detected any water in his lungs.
Melanie Martin, who was Carter’s fiancé and shared a child with him, told the outlet that the autopsy’s release did not mark closure for her.

The 4131 square foot home has 7 bedrooms, a spacious back pool with a Jacuzzi and a 4 car garage.
“It claims death is by drowning, but also adds that he was wearing a t-shirt and necklace in the bathtub, which doesn’t make sense, why would he be in a bathtub with clothes on?” Martin said.
She continued, “I am still in shock and still miss Aaron every day. I don’t understand the chain of events and this report only makes us ask more questions.’
Martin previously told the outlet that she felt the singer had fallen victim to his drug abuse.
She said she turned his phone over to authorities, which included a text exchange in which Carter said he owed an unnamed person $800 for an undisclosed substance.
In the alleged exchange, according to Martin, the singer told the other party he was talking to that he no longer wanted the substance.
The other party demanded the $800 in text, Martin said, to which Carter asked if he was being threatened, which was the last message in the exchange.
The late singer’s mother, Jane Carter, shared footage of the bathtub and house he died in last month in an effort to bring more attention to the investigation into his death.
Jane said she did not believe her son’s death was the result of a drug overdose, but rather foul play, sharing the footage of the house taken the day of her son’s death.
Another image showed a towel and hooded sweatshirt on the floor of the bathroom in which Carter was found, and a toilet in the bathroom.
Jane said Aaron’s family and friends had fully supported her in posting the footage of the painful day in an effort to bring more attention to the case with police.
She said there “should have been at least an investigation” into the untimely death, and that “because of[her]son’s mental illness and problems with prescription drugs[the police]just wanted it to be something easy that she didn’t have. the time or inclination to address.’

Jane added: ‘We want justice. We want answers. There are people who must be held accountable.’
Speak with TMZLive Last month, Jane Carter said her late son was harassed online by “a number of people” who she said could be suspects in his death.
She added that police did not see Carter in person when they conducted a welfare check at his residence.
Jane Carter said that even though her son was battling drug addiction, she didn’t suspect he was self-harming.
“He was addicted, but I don’t think he wanted to die,” Jane said. “I don’t think he would have used that much of that aerosol.”
