Spilling the Beans

Word on the street is that there’s a chance for you to live in the Oscar Award winners’ home by either renting it out or buying the place – whatever you prefer (or can afford)! The gorgeous house is currently up on the market for $18.5 million, but if a lease is what you want to go for, you can get it for $45,000 a month.

Ideal for its location as well as its history, the place is located on the edge of the well-known Runyon Canyon. Plenty of Hollywood’s famous and rich go out there for a hike or dog-walking, including Hackford and Mirren.

Inside the Mansion

The Spanish-style home was built back in 1911 and was specially made for one of Hollywood’s very first movie stars, Dustin Farnum. The Academy award-winning couple got their hands on the 6,600-square-foot dwelling back in the 1980s and have adored living in the place ever since.

The whole accommodation is an imposing example of the architecture of Old Hollywood, renovated and restored. The exterior of the house is quite eye-catching, with a lot of pops of colors. The front door is painted red, the shutters teal, and trees with lavender wisteria.

The inside of the home features numerous French doors, a large staircase, a snug paneled bar, and a gallery that sits over the double-height entryway. The house boasts several fireplaces – there’s one even in the kitchen, which is centered by an island and includes a huge butler’s pantry.

Wrapping It Up

Hackford and Mirren, who have been together for over 40 years now, have called LA their home for most of their lives. However, the couple is currently residing in their Lake Tahoe home in Nevada, where they relocated recently.
