Scream star Neve Campbell is the new owner of this splendid East Coast traditional in Sherman Oaks. The actress paid $2.815 million for the property.

From the street, the home looks very much the part of a private enclave, with a gated entry nestled between a privacy wall and a garage opening onto a long staircase that climbs to a foliage-hidden front door. In back, the .4-acre lot blossoms into a pleasing backyard with a large, tree-shaded lawn, a footpath, a fenced-in pool, and a covered back porch floored in brick.

The homes interiors measure in at just over 4,250 sq. ft., and there are five bedrooms and four baths throughout the residence’s three levels. Details in the house include cool-toned walls, what appear to be quarter-sawn plank oak floors, French doors, and casement windows. Multi-pane glass doors, windows and cabinets throughout the common area lend the living style a pleasing cohesion, as well as an airy atmosphere.

The living room sports a fireplace with a marble surround and hearth step, and a carved mantel; a second fireplace in the family room is a gas unit with a raised hearth. The attic has been converted to a studio space easily accessible by the home’s elevator.

Campbell stars in the upcoming Scream sequel alongside Courteney Cox and David Arquette. The film is scheduled to be released in January 2022.
