Jim Carrey’s 2-acre Brentwood Ranch House Goes Into Contract

Jim Carrey’s Brentwood ranch house, last listed for $19.8 million, took the No. 1 spot among last week’s L.A. County homes under contract.

The actor’s property at 615 North Tigertail Road helped drive an uptick in overall asking dollar volume among luxury homes under contract, according to the Eklund Weekly Luxury Report Los Angeles. The weekly update from Douglas Elliman’s Eklund Gomes Team tallies L.A. County homes under contract that are listed in the MLS for $4 million or more.

Sotheby’s International Realty’s Janelle Friedman and Graham J. Larson have the listing for Carrey’s Brentwood home.

“I want someone else to enjoy it like I have,” Carrey told the Wall Street Journal last year.

The “Dumb and Dumber” and “Bruce Almighty” actor’s five-bed, nine-bath home is nearly 11,000 square feet. The property sits on a 2-acre lot and has six fireplaces, an Art Deco theater, tennis court, waterfall pool and guest house.

Built in 1951, the home first hit the market last February with a $28.9 million ask before seeing a series of price reductions. It was most recently re-listed in September.

A dozen homes went into contract last week, according to Eklund Gomes’ weekly roundup. Those contracts equated to asking dollar volume of nearly $108 million. That compares to the prior week’s nine contracts totaling $52.4 million in asking dollar volume.

Eklund Gomes’ Marcy Roth forecast residential activity will likely stay flat through the holidays, “unless we see another couple of big-ticket contracts come through.”

While single-family residential tends to dominate the weekly roundup, last week saw two condos go into contract.

The largest is a unit at the Rosewood Residences Beverly Hills at 9900 South Santa Monica Boulevard. It’s listed for $15 million by Compass’ Sally Forster Jones and Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California’s Tomer Fridman.

The unit, which came on the market in October, totals nearly 4,300 square feet with three beds, four baths, floor-to-ceiling windows and a service elevator. That’s in addition to a 1,522-square-foot terrace that has a 25-foot pool, barbecue and lounge area.

Rosewood Residences, which counts 17 units, was developed and completed this year by Nahla Capital and GPI Companies.
