Actor Jim Carrey has dropped the asking price for his sprawling Brentwood estate in Los Angeles, which has been on the market since earlier this year.
Initially listed at US$28.9 million, the asking price has been reduced by a whopping US$2.4 million, bringing the current price tag to US$26.5 million, according to Dirt.com.
The estate is hidden behind hedging and secured entry gates, and boasts a mainly one-story main house that includes six bedrooms and six bathrooms, as well as three powder rooms.
The property spans over 1178sq m and features a variety of eclectic decorative and architectural styles that are as idiosyncratic as its owner.
Numerous French doors allow for the interior living and entertaining spaces to flow out to a large courtyard patio, while the generous acreage offers numerous terraces, rolling lawns, a rock-lined pool with a waterfall, and a lighted tennis court.
The property also includes a pool house, a fenced vegetable garden, and a gazebo perched above the tennis court.
The estate has served as a creative sanctuary for Carrey for more than 30 years, but since he spends very little time there nowadays, he has decided to sell it so it can be a residential respite for someone else.
The property is listed through Janelle Friedman at Sothebyโs International Realty โ Santa Monica โ Venice Brokerage.
The propertyโs eclectic features are as varied as Carrey’s own films, with a wood-paneled bathroom in the primary suite that is a more baronial affair with a copper hooded fireplace and leaded glass windows, an Art Deco movie theater that displays a few costumes from some of his more iconic film roles, and a semi-circular breakfast room that looks out to flowering pear trees.
The homeโs gym, home office, family room, and gourmet kitchen, which is equipped with an indoor barbecue, provide a luxurious living experience. The more rustic areas of the property include walking paths and an open-air pavilion for yoga and meditation.
