Angelina Jolie is saying goodbye to her Los Angeles abode.
The Oscar-winning actress has officially listed her California compound, formerly owned by filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille, for $29.85 million.
Set on just over 2 acres, the six-bedroom, 10-bathroom estate features 11,000 square feet of living space. The entire property includes a Beaux-Arts-style mansion, a guest house studio with a private gated entry, a pool house, a fitness studio, a tea house and a separate garage with a security station.

The property features sweeping views of the Hollywood Hills and Griffith Observatory. The land also offers century-old trees, rolling lawns and complete privacy from the outside.

The home was first conceived by architect B. Cooper Corbett in 1913 and was later acquired by DeMille in 1916, according to the listing held by Ernie Carsell of Sotheby's International Realty. The DeMille family kept the estate until the late 1980s.

The Couture star purchased the Los Feliz home in 2017 for $24.5 million, the year after she divorced Brad Pitt, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing property records.
Jolie sparked rumors that she was considering leaving L.A. after an August 2024 interview with The Hollywood Reporter in which the actress and director said she is only there “because I have to be here from a divorce.”

The former couple filed for divorce in September 2016 after two years of marriage and about 11 as a couple. Together, they share six children: Maddox, 24, Pax, 22, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 17.

However, once her twins turn 18 on July 12, 2026, Jolie said she's ready to live abroad.
"When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, safety," she said at the time. "I have a house now to raise my children, but sometimes this place can be … that humanity that I found across the world is not what I grew up with here."
When she moves away from L.A., she noted, "I'll spend a lot of time in Cambodia," which is where she adopted her oldest son Maddox in 2002. She added, "I'll spend time visiting my family members wherever they may be in the world.”
Last December, a source told PEOPLE Jolie had begun showing her home to pre-qualified buyers after some renovations.
