In Los Angeles, Emma Stone has continued a winning streak that started when she nabbed a recent Golden Globe award for her performance in the movie Poor Things. Barely a month after she hoisted her Spanish-style bungalow in the Comstock Hills area of Westwood on the market for just under $4 million, the A-list actress has already handed the keys over the keys to a new owner.
Records show Stone—who maintains a permanent residence in the Texas city of Austin—has sold the property long occupied by her mother to Marguerite Brokaw, the widow of legendary William Morris talent agent Norman Brokaw, for $4.3 million—or an impressive $2 million more than she paid for the relatively humble yet charming abode a little over four years ago, back in spring 2019.

Resting beyond a brick walkway that opens into the original tiled courtyard via a sage-green door, the creamy stucco and terracotta-roof structure was built in the 1920s and extensively updated during Stone’s tenure. Inside, four bedrooms and four bathrooms are spread across a little more than 3,200 square feet of colorful living space boasting era-appropriate wood-beam ceilings and wide arched doorways.
A cozy sitting room is accented with artwork and pops of color.

Highlights include an entry foyer displaying a curving iron-railed staircase, which flows to a sunken fireside living room sporting built-in shelving and French doors spilling outside. There’s also a formal dining area, plus a sitting room that connects to an eat-in kitchen outfitted with all-white wood cabinetry, a turquoise-hued range and farmhouse sink.
A turquoise range serves as a focal point of the newly expanded kitchen.

Elsewhere is a primary bedroom that has a stylish bath equipped with a vanity holding a sink and dressing area, along with a vintage clawfoot soaking tub and separate walk-in shower; and topping it all off is a one-bedroom guesthouse with its own kitchen and living room, plus a gated driveway out front.

In addition to her just-sold Westwood house and Texas mansion, Stone also maintains a posh New York City apartment. In 2022, she sold a midcentury ranch-style house directly overlooking Malibu’s Las Tunas Beach to David Cooley—longtime owner of The Abbey Food & Bar in West Hollywood—for $4.4 million, or nearly $1.2 million more than The Curse and Cruella star acquired the place for in 2018.
The listing was held by Eric Lavey of Sotheby’s International Realty–Beverly Hills Brokerage; Guy Levy and Linda May of Carolwood Estates repped the buyer.
