(MCT)—Brad Pitt has listed his gated Malibu beach house for $13.75 million.
The view home he shares with actress Angelina Jolie sits on 1.26 bluff-top acres with a tennis court, a lap pool and access to the beach.
Features include walls of glass doors, a walk-in refrigerator/freezer and three fireplaces. The house has four bedrooms and four bathrooms in more than 4,000 square feet.
The couple is reported to live mostly in France but do own houses in Los Feliz, California, and New Orleans.
Pitt, 47, will follow his starring roles in “Inglorious Bustards” (2009) and “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” (2008) by playing Oakland A’s General Manager Billy Beane in the forthcoming “Moneyball.”
Jolie, 36, won an Academy Award for her supporting role in “Girl, Interrupted” (1999).
Public records show Pitt bought the Malibu property for $8.41 million in 2005. He did not respond to requests for comment.
Pink’s Home in the Valley
Three-time Grammy winner Pink has put her Sherman Oaks, California, home up for sale at $4 million or for rent at $8,500 a month.
The gated Spanish-style house, built in 1946, has hand-hewn double entry doors and a two-story foyer. The 4,434-square-foot home has four bedrooms and five bathrooms. The nearly three-quarters of an acre property includes an infinity pool, a grotto-style spa tucked behind a waterfall and a barbecue pavilion.
Pink, 31, released five studio albums since 2000, then marked the decade last year with her “Greatest Hits … So Far!!!” compilation. Among her hits are “Get the Party Started,” “Trouble” and “Missundaztood.”
The rock star bought the property in 2002 for $2 million, according to public records.
Producer’s Home Sells Quickly
The longtime family home of film director and producer Sydney Pollack and his wife, Claire, has sold in Pacific Palisades, Calif., less than two months after it was listed at $7.85 million. The sales price was reported as $7,694,000 at BlockShopper.
Built in 1940 and ‘41 and designed by Wallace Neff, the 5,200-square-foot main house retains such Neff details as tall chimneys, thick walls, an oval dining room and French doors in many rooms leading to gardens. There are four bedrooms and 5 ½ bathrooms.
Claire Pollack, who has an architecture degree, added windows and skylights, turned the attic into a screening room and built a two-story, 1,200-square-foot guesthouse that she used as an office. It contains a living room, one bedroom and 1 ½ bathrooms.
The park-like site of more than three-quarters of an acre includes 50-year-old magnolia, ficus, birch and liquidambar trees, an herb garden, a gazebo, a sunken fire pit, an oval saltwater pool with spa and a koi pond outside what was Sydney Pollack’s office.
Pollack, who died in 2008 at 73, won Academy Awards for directing and producing “Out of Africa” (1985). Among his dozens of other films were “The Firm” (1993), “Tootsie” (1982) and “The Way We Were” (1973).
The Pollacks bought the house in 1985 for $1.8 million, according to public records.
