Brad Pitt’s Mansion: New Owner & Price Revealed

by Sofia Alvarez Entertainment Editor

Los Angeles, July 26, 2024 — Austin Butler is now the owner of Brad Pitt’s former Los Feliz mansion, closing the deal for over $5 million. The sale comes after the property was the site of a July burglary, but that didn’t deter the “Elvis” star from acquiring this piece of Hollywood history.

A Star-Studded Past for Butler’s New Home

The contemporary Los Feliz estate, known as “The Steel House,” has hosted a string of celebrities before Butler.

  • The 1960s-built mansion boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a sleek, modern design.
  • Brad Pitt purchased the property in 2023 and was not present during the recent burglary while on a promotional tour for F1.
  • Prior owners include actress Aileen Getty and Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine.

Butler’s new home, built in 1960, offers panoramic 360-degree views of the city. What kind of amenities does this celebrity estate offer? The property features an outdoor pool, a sauna, and expansive panoramic windows, all within a 186-square-meter (approximately 2,000 square feet) space. The design emphasizes straight lines and a steel structure, giving it the moniker “The Steel House.”

A Recent Security Scare

In July, the mansion was targeted by thieves who scaled a security fence, entered the yard, and forced entry by breaking a front window. Fortunately, Pitt was away on a promotional tour for the film F1 at the time of the incident. Despite the security breach, Butler proceeded with the purchase.

The main room is highlighted by its cozy fireplace and a terrace with views of the city.

From Getty to Valentine to Pitt and Now Butler

The property has a rich history of ownership within the entertainment industry. Before Pitt took ownership in 2023, the home belonged to Aileen Getty, granddaughter of oilman and art collector Jean Paul Getty. Prior to Getty, Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine called the house home.

The L-shaped house is designed with integrated living spaces and features beamed ceilings and cobalt blue rugs in all three bedrooms. The minimalist kitchen offers ample storage. Pitt, meanwhile, is expanding his own real estate portfolio, recently acquiring another Los Angeles residence for $12 million.

With integrated environments, the house is L-shaped and has about 200 square meters spread over a single floor, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, in addition to the pool and sauna.
