      Rapper G-Eazy’s $3.7 Million Hollywood Hills Home Comes With a Professional Recording Studio

      by

      Since he’s been living in New York for more than a year now, Gerald Gillum—better known to his fans as G-Eazy—has decided to part ways with the Spanish Colonial villa in Los Angeles he affectionately refers to as Gerryland. The Oakland-born rapper and record producer has stuck a $3.7 million price tag on the towering residence, which is tucked away in the Beachwood Canyon neighborhood of Hollywood Hills.

      Though the ask is almost $2 million more than the nearly $1.8 million he paid ER and Salem actor Shane West for the late 1970s abode back in 2016, G-Eazy completely remodeled the digs during his tenure in collaboration with Melody Jimenez of MA Creative. Subsequently described by Architectural Digest as a “low-key hideaway in which to work and collaborate with fellow artists,” the place has four bedrooms and five baths in roughly 3,600 square feet of character-filled living space boasting rustic hardwood floors, custom Italian and Moroccan tile, and artisanal ironwork throughout.

      An entry vestibule has a step-down living room on one side and a dining area on the other.

      “This was the first home G-EAZY ever bought, even turning the guesthouse into a studio,” says Raul Sanchez Jr. of Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California, who holds the listing. “He poured a lot of money into the home, remodeling the kitchen, the walk-in closet, the fixtures are all custom, and of course, the studio, where he wrote many of his biggest hits.”

      Sequestered behind walls and a gated entrance in the storied Hollywoodland enclave, the creamy stucco and stair-laced structure is perched upon a steep, almost quarter-acre parcel overlooking jetliner views that include the Hollywood Sign. Inside the double wood and glass front doors, an entry vestibule displaying a curving iron-railed staircase steps down to a living room resting beneath a vaulted wood-beam ceiling and sporting an all-white fireplace and French doors opening out to a slender balcony. The nearby dining room connects to a stylish eat-in kitchen, which is outfitted with dark green cabinetry, marble countertops, and Wolf appliances.

      The two-story guesthouse features a recording studio on the lower level and a lounge area up top.

      Elsewhere is a posh primary suite flaunting a former bedroom that’s been transformed into a massive walk-in closet to house the No Limit and Me, Myself & I performer’s extensive collection of sneakers and leather jackets, along with Juliet balconies and a masculine bath spotlighted by a glass-encased steam shower. Outdoors, the grounds host several alfresco lounging and entertaining spots enhanced by a saltwater pool with a Baja shelf, plus a fire pit and a built-in barbecue.

      Topping it all off is the self-contained two-story guesthouse, which is accessible via stairs and a snazzy elevator and houses a lounge area on the upper level and a professional-grade recording studio with a kitchenette and a shower down below. There’s also a street-level two-car garage.

      This 1940s R.M. Schindler Home in Hollywood Hills Is Back on the Market for $3.3 Million

      by

      It’s been barely a year since Tara Subkoff doled out nearly $2.4 million for a pristine 80-year-old home in Los Angeles designed by revered architect R.M. Schindler. Now the multi-faceted actress, artist, director, and fashion designer is already looking to offload her place in the Outpost Estates enclave of Hollywood Hills with a nearly million-dollar jump in price, asking a speck under $3.3 million.

      Known as the Jacob and Margaret Druckman House after its original owners, the modernist structure was completed in the early 1940s; it offers four bedrooms and three baths in roughly 1,600 square feet of sensitively renovated, split-level living space accented with refinished hardwood floors, ample built-ins, and high wood-beam ceilings dotted with clerestory windows. Vast expanses of glass overlook leafy canyon vistas.

      The galley kitchen features vintage-style appliances and a dining area tucked into a windowed nook.

      Standing out on the main floor is an open-plan great room featuring a living area sporting a decorative red-brick and white-stucco fireplace. An adjacent dining area connects to the pink and mint-green kitchen, which is outfitted with marble countertops, vintage-style appliances, and a breakfast nook with an integrated table and bench seating. Elsewhere is a set of steps leading down to a powder room, along with a guest bedroom that’s currently being used as a media room.

      Three additional bedrooms can be found on the bottom-most level, as well as a den/office and two baths dressed in the same pale hues of the kitchen. Outdoors, the foliage-laced grounds are carved into a hillside parcel spanning just under a quarter of an acre and host an alfresco lounging and dining area warmed by a fireplace and an oval-shaped pool surrounded by a flagstone sundeck.

      The leafy grounds are spotlighted by an oval pool encased within a flagstone sundeck.

      Per the listing held by William Baker of the Agency and Lilian Pfaff of Modern California Home, there’s also a newly installed gate and alarm system, plus a two-car garage.

      The 52-year-old Connecticut native is probably best known for founding the art collective and fashion label Imitation of Christ. Also an actress, she’s starred in the films When the Bough Breaks and The Cell. Subkoff previously owned a 1930s Saul Harris Brown-designed streamline moderne home in the Silver Lake neighborhood of L.A. that she sold in December 2023 for $3 million.

      A Landmarked Hollywood Hills Bungalow by Architect John Elgin Woolf Lists for $4.6 Million

      by

      Crafted by out-of-the-box architect John Elgin Woolf in the late 1930s for Golden Age actor and TV editor Robert Seiter, this Hollywood Regency-style jewel box in the Hollywood Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles was last sold in October 2017 for $2.7 million to director Francesco Carrozzini and his producer wife Bee. On and off the rental market since 2022, once for as much as $19,000 per month, it’s now resurfaced for sale at a dash under $4.6 million.

      Whoever happens to buy the place will own a stunning example of Hollywood Regency design, at least according to Carl Gambino of Compass, who holds the listing. “It’s more than just a home, it’s a true work of art,” he says. “With so few of John Woolf’s creations remaining in pristine condition, they are incredibly rare and highly sought after.”

      A light-filled living room features a curvilinear wall of glass flanked by tall French doors leading outside.

      Tucked away behind walls and gates amid a hillside parcel spanning just over half an acre in the Cahuenga Pass area, the home was acquired in the 1960s by local neurosurgeon Henry Dodge Jr., who collaborated with Woolf himself on an extensive remodel that included the addition of a two-story pool house.

      Occupied in the 2000s by hotelier/restaurateur Sean MacPherson—who described it in a New York Times article as a “residential palace for Hollywood royalty”—and also leased at one time by designer Nate Berkus and his then-fiancé Jeremiah Brent, the finely cut gem was most recently restored by the current owners during their tenure and featured in Architectural Digest. It was listed as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 2021.

      The retro black-and-green kitchen features a restored antique stove and access to a walled courtyard.

      Hollywood Regency-style homes are an elegant and sometimes theatrical assemblage of various architectural styles. Distinguished on the exterior by a low-pitched hip roof and ornamental Neoclassic elements in the form of cartouche emblems and slim fluted columns, the two-bedroom, two-bath home boasts roughly 2,150 square feet of single-level living space decked out with inlaid parquet floors and high, chevron-patterned wood-clad ceilings. A pair of tall, slender Pullman-style doors, hallmarks of the Regency style, open into the white stucco structure, which is highlighted by a double-crescent living room sporting matching built-in bookcases and a delicately carved marble fireplace notched into a curvilinear 12-foot wall of glass overlooking the U-shaped pool area.

      Other highlights include a fireside dining room and an eat-in kitchen with green-and-black checkered floors, a vintage 1950s stove, and access to a bricked courtyard patio, as well as a primary suite flaunting a bay window, a walk-in closet, and a bath equipped with a freestanding oval soaking tub. Rounding it all out is the inviting backyard, which is spotlighted by a heated pool and the aforementioned pool house with a deck up top and a partially subterranean garage down below.

      Will Arnett’s Snazzy Modern Farmhouse in Beverly Hills Is Up for Grabs at $22.5 Million

      by

      Back in 2021, around three months after Will Arnett sold a custom-built modular abode in Los Angeles to The Vampire Diaries star Claire Holt and her private equity guru husband Andrew Joblon for around $8 million, the Canadian-American actor, comedian, and podcast host doled out $16.4 million for an all-new spec home. Now he’s ready to let that place go, asking $22.5 million for the stylish modern farmhouse-style structure just beyond the Beverly Hills city limits and around the corner from Jeff Bezos’s $165 million estate.

      Nestled amid an almost half-acre parcel in the Benedict Canyon area and secured by gates and a striking 25-foot exposed brick entry wall, the sleek house has a two-tone bleached wood and brick exterior and is fronted by a three-car garage and an expansive cobblestone motor court. Inside, six bedrooms and eight baths are spread across 10,300 square feet of Arnett-customized living space boasting hardwood floors, high beamed ceilings, steel-framed windows, and wood and brick accent walls. Vast walls of glass open seamlessly to the outdoors from almost every room.

      The elegantly appointed kitchen is outfitted with an eat-in island and a breakfast nook.

      The kitchen is one of the most visually dramatic spaces, with a marble backsplash that stretches to the ceiling and a top-tier collection of Wolf appliances. Adjoining the space are a walk-in pantry and a breakfast nook, plus a formal dining room, a family room, and an office lined with built-in shelving. A bespoke sculptural staircase leads upstairs, where a sumptuous primary suite awaits with a fireside seating area, a walk-in closet, and a massive bath sporting veined-marble walls.

      Specifically geared toward relaxing and entertaining, the lower level is highlighted by a game room and a plush screening room that seats at least 10. Elsewhere is a professional sound booth that Arnett added for his voice-over and podcast work, as well as a steam shower-equipped gym. Additional amenities can be found outdoors on the sloping grounds, where a sparkling plunge pool is the ideal spot to cool off and several lounge areas are warmed by cozy fire pits.

According to The Wall Street Journal, which first reported the listing held by Richard Ehrlich of Carolwood Estates, “he plans to be more bicoastal and wants a smaller footprint in California.”

      Linda Lavin Called This Vintage L.A. Bungalow Home. Now It Can Be Yours for $2.2 Million.

      by

      Well, kiss my grits! A charming Spanish Revival-style home owned by the late Linda Lavin has just popped up for sale in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Toluca Lake. Rose Ferraro Fahey of Compass holds the $2.2 million listing.

      Records show the veteran stage and screen actress—probably best known for her Golden Globe-winning role as a waitress and single mom on the long-running sitcom Alice and Tony-winning performance as 1940s Brooklyn matriarch Kate Jerome in the play Broadway Bound—and her third husband Steve Bakunas paid the exact same $2.2 million amount for the property almost three years ago, back in spring 2022.

      The fireside living room flows out to an inviting pergola-shaded terrace via arched French doors.

      Built almost a century ago and updated during Lavin’s tenure, the white stucco and terracotta-roof structure features three bedrooms and two baths in a little more than 2,000 square feet of single-level living space boasting the original wood floors, Saltillo tile, and arched windows and doorways.

      Secluded behind bougainvillea-topped walls and a gated entry, the home is accessed via a brick and tile-accented walkway that meanders through a grassy lawn before emptying out at a front porch and hand-carved wood door. Once inside, highlights include a dining area that flows to a living room sporting a gas fireplace embedded within a gray accent wall and French doors spilling out to a pergola-shaded courtyard. A Talavera-tiled kitchen is outfitted with reclaimed wood cabinetry, a hammered-copper sink, Thermador appliances, and an accompanying breakfast nook.

      Another pergola-shaded terrace hosts an alfresco dining area dotted with hot pink bougainvillea.

      Set off by themselves are the sleeping quarters, which include one en suite bedroom and two others that share a vintage-style bath dressed in mint green and black tile. Outdoors, the corner parcel spans less than a quarter of an acre and is spotlighted by a second pergola-shaded terrace holding a summer kitchen and dining area. There’s also a detached two-car garage with a bonus space that’s currently being used as a workout spot.

      The Portland, Maine, native passed away unexpectedly in late 2024, due to complications from lung cancer at age 87. The news of Lavin’s death came as a shock, according to Deadline, as she had recently been promoting her new Netflix series No Good Deed and filming the upcoming Hulu comedy Mid-Century Modern.

      The Strokes’ Albert Hammond Jr. Lists His Revamped L.A. Home for $2.9 Million

      by

      Albert Hammond Jr. doled out just over $1.8 million for a dated little number perched high in the Hollywood Hills back in 2019. Since then, the house has undergone a dramatic remodel and is essentially brand new from top to bottom. Now the Los Angeles-born guitarist for The Strokes and his longtime wife Justyna are walkin’ out that door and hoisting the revamped modern spread on the market with an asking price of nearly $2.9 million.

      Perched on a promontory high above the Sunset Strip, amid a parcel spanning almost half an acre and accessible via a gated driveway that flows to an attached two-car garage, the all-white stucco structure was built in 1977 and updated by the local design firm Fine Craftsmanship. Inside, four bedrooms and four baths are draped across 2,605 square feet of multi-level living space accented with hardwood floors, 20-foot ceilings, interior windows, and vast expanses of glass offering picturesque views that encompass Universal Studios, the Hollywood Sign, and beyond.

      Main-level highlights include a brick-clad foyer that steps up to a dining area and a sleek kitchen furnished with top-tier Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, plus a separate windowed prep area. A bedroom with its own bath is tucked away behind the kitchen, while steps lead up to a fireside living room sporting a custom bookshelf wall with a rolling library ladder, a drop-down projector screen for watching movies, and sliding glass doors opening to a patio.

      The pitched ceiling soars to over 20 feet high over the dining area and kitchen.

      Two additional en suite bedrooms on the top floor of the house include a primary suite featuring a private balcony, a walk-in closet, and a sky-lit bath equipped with dual vanities, a spa tub, and a steam shower, and elsewhere is an office/den loft that could be used as a fourth bedroom.

      Rounding out the listing held by Robert Kallick and Sara Kaye Sexton of Compass are the secluded grounds, where you’ll find terraced and landscaped gardens paired with multiple patios hosting a pool and spa, as well as a barrel-style sauna, a cold plunge, and an outdoor shower.

      In addition to their Hollywood Hills home, the Hammonds also own a two-bedroom condo in the Century City neighborhood of L.A. that they picked up in spring 2020 for $1.6 million.
