The lavish California home of late Taco Bell founder Glen Bell is on the market for the first time since 2015.

Bell died in 2010 at 86. He was a pioneer of Mexican fast food, opening chains including Taco-Tia and El Taco in the 1950s. It wasn't until 1962 that he founded Taco Bell, which PepsiCo acquired for $125 million in 1978.

Bell's massive Rancho Santa Fe, California, home is now listed at $5.9 million. The listing actually includes two homes: a nearly 8,000-square-foot house with two swimming pools and a chef's kitchen, and a 4,527-square-foot house with an outdoor entertainment space and tennis court. The homes can be purchased together or separately.

The main residence has five bedrooms and seven baths. Each of the two master suites has a fireplace and a private garden, and the spacious living room has floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the backyard.
