Before he passed away in October 2023 at age 54, Matthew Perry plumped up his real estate portfolio with yet another Los Angeles residence. The comedian, producer, and actor—best known for his Emmy-nominated role as Chandler Bing on the long-running sitcom Friends—doled out a speck under $5 million in an off-market deal for a sleek midcentury-modern villa in Hollywood Hills that was originally listed for around $6 million. Now that place has popped up for sale once again, this time asking $5.2 million.
Built in 1957 and recently renovated, the place is nestled amid an almost quarter-acre parcel above the Sunset Strip. Fronted by a short yet wide driveway that empties out at an attached two-car garage, as well as a privacy screen and an off-kilter set of steps leading up to an atrium-style entryway, the all-white structure has three bedrooms and four baths in a little more than 2,500 square feet of single-level living space, boasting a mix of stone and blonde hardwood floors throughout. Fleetwood sliding glass doors also spill out to a covered lounge area overlooking a swimming pool and a fire pit.

Highlights consist of a formal dining space-turned-billiards room that connects via a two-way fireplace to an office nook and an accompanying living area, which sits adjacent to a streamlined kitchen outfitted with stainless appliances, a stylish backsplash, and an eat-in peninsula illuminated by a trio of dangling pendants. All of the bedrooms are of the en-suite variety, including a primary retreat hosting a walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath equipped with dual vanities, a rectangle soaking tub, and a glass-encased shower, and another one that’s been converted into a “very chic screening room” replete with a projector and surround sound.
In addition to the Hollywood Hills house, Perry—who in late 2022 released his first book, Friends, Lovers, and The Big Terrible Thing, a memoir where he opens up about his struggles with a Vicodin addiction—also owned a contemporary Pacific Palisades cottage that he purchased for exactly $6 million back in 2020. It’s there that he died from the “acute effects of ketamine,” according to an autopsy conducted by the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner.
