Diane Keaton’s Home Returns to Market for Reduced Price of $27 Million

Almost two months after her passing at age 79, Diane Keaton’s final Los Angeles home is officially available. The Oscar-winning actress, renowned interior design author, and prolific home renovator purchased the Sullivan Canyon estate, on the border of Brentwood and Pacific Palisades, in 2011 for $4.7 million. There, she transformed a traditional property into her signature barn-meets-factory dream home.

Drawing inspiration from Pinterest, Keaton collaborated with architect David Takacs and designers Stephen Shadley, Cynthia Carlson, and Toben Windahl to create an earthquake- and fire-resistant rustic-industrial residence, completed in 2015. She later chronicled the process in her book, The House That Pinterest Built. Initially listed earlier this year at $29 million, the 9,200-square-foot estate has now returned to the market at just under $27 million, represented by Andrew Gulyas of Destination Home.

The estate is constructed with 75,000 reclaimed clay bricks Keaton personally selected and shipped from Chicago, topped with a steel roof and a silo. Inside, the home offers five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, across two levels filled with hardwood, brick, and stained concrete floors, French and sliding barn doors, and steel-framed commercial windows flooding the home with natural light.

The main living area features a fireplace etched into a whitewashed brick wall, soaring wood-beam ceilings, and large metal pendant lights. Additional highlights include a formal dining room, a bookshelf-lined library with a rolling ladder, dual primary suites, and a sky-lit kitchen complete with a blue-grey island, matching cabinetry accented with chicken wire, a tall Sub-Zero cooler, and a walk-in pantry.

Outdoors, the nearly three-quarter-acre grounds offer a wood-clad guesthouse, heated pool with spillover spa, fireside patio for alfresco entertaining, and a circular driveway leading to a gated motor court with a detached two-car garage. A playful touch crowns the property: massive 3-D letters spelling “California” affixed to a brick wall.

Keaton had listed the home in March, about six months before her passing in October, but it didn’t sell and was delisted prior to her death. She previously owned a Lloyd Wright-designed midcentury home in Rustic Canyon and a Spanish Colonial Revival in Beverly Hills, the latter currently on the market for $25 million.
