Now whoever buys the property from the actors will get a residence replete with luxurious features, like lush organic, rose gardens, and a tree-shaded patio. There is also a swimming pool tucked away privately within a central courtyard area. Last but not least, the new owners will also get an Italian revival main house full of attractive architectural features.
To begin with, the 15,000-square-foot mansion has a massive grand foyer, an area flooded with natural light where guests are greeted with heavy exposed beams. There is a formal sitting room with terrace, a wood-paneled library and heavy tile flooring throughout the kitchen and main dining room. The house reportedly has 13 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, throughout its three stories. Inside, the property has a two-story banquet hall, hand-stenciled ceilings, four fireplaces and an elevator.
If you like chandeliers, then this place is for you, as stylish lighting hangs in almost every bedroom and sitting room of the house. A lucky guest can have plenty of privacy, with a separate guest apartment. The mansion also features amenities like a gym and a recording studio.
