Mansion Is Now Listed For Sale For $26.5 Million
Jim Carrey, the star of the hit comedy “Dumb and Dumber,” is getting serious about selling his sprawling estate in Brentwood, Los Angeles as reported by The Dirt.com. The property was initially listed for $28.9 million earlier this year, but Carrey has slashed the asking price by a whopping $2.4 million to $26.5 million. The property boasts 280 feet of hedging and secured entry gates, with a mostly one-story main house featuring six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and three powder rooms spread over 12,700 square feet. Carrey’s own art lines the walls of the estate.
The idiosyncratic home is a collection of different decorative and architectural styles. It has a center hall entry with formal living and dining rooms on either side, both with a fireplace. The primary suite features a wood-paneled bathroom with a copper hooded fireplace and leaded glass windows. The Art Deco movie theater features mohair-covered sofas and a burl wood snack area. The house also has a gym, home office, family room, gourmet kitchen with indoor barbecue, and semicircular breakfast room.
The estate’s acreage includes numerous terraces, rolling lawns, a rock-lined pool with a waterfall, a pool house, a fenced vegetable garden, and a lighted tennis court. More rustic areas include walking paths and an open-air pavilion for yoga, meditation, and al fresco napping. Carrey, who has earned close to $6 billion in worldwide box office receipts, said he is selling the property as he spends so little time there nowadays and wants someone else to enjoy it as a creative sanctuary. The property is available through Janelle Friedman at Sotheby’s International Realty, Santa Monica and Venice Brokerage.
