Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s Onetime Home Reduced to $44.5M

Published: October 26, 2019 | By: American Luxury Staff

The erstwhile primary West Coast home of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston resurfaced on the market this week with a judicious price cut: about 10% off the top.

The property—which was custom built for actor Frederic March, of ‘Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde’ fame—initially hit the market this spring with an ask of $56 million; a month later it was listed at $49 million, where it held fast for about four months. It is now priced at $44.5 million.

The house dates to the mid-1930s, and was designed by Wallace Neff. The exterior architecture playfully riffs on French Tudor in a Southern California context.

The interiors have been renovated with extraordinary élan. But the kitchen is something special. It’s carried off with an astonishingly literate sensibility, using the familiar black-and-white tonal scheme as a foundation to create an urbane and hip space. Floor-to-ceiling subway tile, floating shelves, marble countertops, in-wall fireplace, and checkerboard tile floor coalesce into a cohesive look that balances uptown New York deco and contemporary tastes.

The four-bedroom main house features a bar/screening room with a fireplace, a dining room that seats 20, and a master with an original French-style fireplace, large walk-in closet, and dressing room with a centerpiece shelving unit outfitted with a rail ladder.

A brand-new tennis court with pavilion and guest house, a lengthy stone terrace, a covered porch, an outdoor fireplace, and a pool and lounge area are among the exterior features of this property. The 1.2 acres includes a very private green glade of lawn bordered by mature trees and shrubs.

Aniston and Pitt purchased the home in 2001. They sold it five years later.
