Angelina Jolie Lists Historic LA Mansion for $30 Million

Wanted star Angelina Jolie is selling her Los Angeles home for $29.85 million, which could give her a tidy $5 million windfall. The 50-year-old bought the Los Angeles mansion in 2017 for $24.5 million in the wake of her split from fellow Hollywood A-Lister Brad Pitt. The Lara Croft: Tomb Raider star’sfive-building, six-bedroom, 2.1-acre Los Feliz property comes complete with a guesthouse, tea house, pool, garage, and a security station, according to the property listing cited by The Wall Street Journal. It was once owned by iconic filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille, who bought it in 1916 for $27,893 and lived there until his death in 1959. A 2010 book titled Empire of Dreams: The Epic Life of Cecil B. DeMille revealed that he used the guest house for screening movies. “While the room was large, the heavy furniture meant that it could hold no more than two dozen people for a screening,” a passage of the book, cited by the Journal, said. “DeMille himself would sit in a large leather chair in the corner of the room.” As sold by the mother of six, it also now comes with a secret treehouse.
