Last year, around the same time he purchased a historic 73-acre retreat in New York’s Hudson Valley for $5 million, Kiefer Sutherland quietly sold his longtime estate in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Toluca Lake to engaged Hollywood couple Macauley Culkin and Brenda Song in an off-market deal for a hefty $8 million—or more than double what the 24 star paid for the place a little more than a decade ago.
Now it seems the 55-year-old thespian and musician has decided to divest of his California real estate holdings altogether, having chosen to let go of a more modest residence tucked away in the trendy Atwater Village neighborhood of L.A. The eldest son of legendary actor Donald Sutherland is asking a smidge over $1.8 million for the English Tudor-style home that he paid around $1.2 million for back in winter 2018.
A fireside living room flows through a wide arched doorway to a dining area that has been converted into a family room.

Built in the late 1920s and since fully modernized, the single-level bungalow offers two bedrooms and an equal number of baths in just over 1,100 square feet of living space that still retains many of its period details per the listing, which is held by Kelly Sutherland of Coldwell Banker Realty.
Nestled amid a lot spanning a little less than a quarter-acre, the whitewashed stucco structure’s exterior is decked out with black-trimmed casement windows and a steeply pitched roofline. A grassy lawn is separated from the street out front by a sidewalk, with a gated cobblestone driveway off to the side leading to a detached two-car garage holding court in the backyard.
Clad in stylish hexagon tile, the kitchen features SMEG appliances and a windowed breakfast nook.

A private porch sits next to the bright yellow entry door, which opens into a light-filled living room adorned with a barrel ceiling, picture window and gas fireplace. A wide arched doorway drifts into a family room that was previously used as a dining area, and the adjacent kitchen has been nicely upgraded with hexagon tile floors, quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, SMEG appliances and an accompanying breakfast nook.
A central hallway boasting the original built-in shelves and additional storage provides access to the primary bedroom, which sports plenty of closet space and a bath equipped with a large glass-encased shower; and outdoors, the hedged grounds are spotlighted by a brick-clad patio that’s ideal for al fresco entertaining.
With an al fresco dining patio and a grassy lawn, the backyard is the perfect spot for hosting guests.

Born in London and raised in Canada, Sutherland made his film debut in Max Dugan Returns in the early ’80s, and then went on to snag his first leading role in The Bay Boy, which earned him a Genie Award nomination. He went on to appear in numerous movies and TV shows such as the popular Fox series 24, for which he garnered Emmy, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild and Satellite awards.
