Angelina Jolie Trades Malibu Hideaway for Denise Richards’ Estate at $30k-a-Month

Published: October 11, 2016 | By: American Luxury Staff

After filing for divorce unexpectedly two weeks ago, Angelina Jolie set up shop in a Bali-inspired six-bedroom in Malibu owned by X-Men director Bryan Singer. Now, she’s moved into what look to be more permanent digs: a 1.14-acre estate owned by former Bond girl and reality television star Denise Richards. The noticeably larger Hidden Hills mansion is as unassuming as an 8,284-square-foot mansion can be, with a country-inspired front entry and gray siding dominating the façade.

The entry includes a cheetah-printed staircase sweeping over a chandeliered sitting area, while a darkly painted lounge features red velvet furniture, an onyx fireplace and plenty of seating with a wet bar and a quartet of bistro tables. The formal dining gets lavish right, with a lovely wedding cake chandelier, purple walls and velvet seating for ten in addition to silver valances over the white curtains.

Other living areas include a wine lounge with built-in floor-to-ceiling wine cabinets, a pair of offices, a large chef’s kitchen with a brick oven and a U-shaped center island. There’s also a media room, six bedrooms, six full and two half-bathrooms and even a pet hotel with plenty of kennels, should Jolie want to bring any furry friends along.

The home, which was listed for sale at $7.749 million in June of last year, came down recently to $6.895 million. Richards reportedly purchased it for $4.395 million way back in 2007.
