‘Dumb and Dumber’ Producer Brad Krevoy Lists His Ocean-View Malibu Estate for $8.5 Million

The Motion Picture Corporation of America CEO purchased the beach getaway in 2019 for nearly $7.8 million.

Brad Krevoy doled out a speck under $7.8 million for a bluff-top estate in the heart of Malibu, in the Sycamore Park enclave across Pacific Coast Highway from the Pacific Ocean, back in 2019. Now, five years later, the veteran entertainment industry executive’s coastal getaway has popped up for sale. But if you’re hoping to score the property, you’re probably out of luck. Records show it’s already under contract to be sold after barely a week on the market.

Listed by Kathryn Bentzen of Coldwell Banker Realty for a speck under $8.5 million, the roughly 1.7-acre parcel is tucked away behind high walls and gates. Multiple structures include an Australian farmhouse-style main home, plus a guesthouse, a pool house with changing facilities and a gym—for a combined total of seven bedrooms and nine baths in about 6,400 square feet.

The fully updated two-story primary residence is adorned throughout with dark hardwood floors and soaring vaulted and beamed ceilings. Highlights include a living room sporting an ornate stone fireplace and French doors spilling out to a wraparound veranda, as well as a wood-paneled dining area that connects to a gourmet kitchen outfitted with stone countertops, dual islands, and a pricey La Cornue range. Five en suite bedrooms include a posh primary retreat flaunting a fireplace, a private patio, and a luxe bath equipped with dual vanities, a vintage clawfoot soaking tub, and a roomy freestanding shower.

‘Masters of Sex’ Star Lizzy Caplan Lists Her Hollywood Hills Home for $2.85 Million

The 3-bedroom modernist retreat above L.A.’s Bronson Canyon has a peek-a-boo view of the famed Hollywood Sign.

About four years before Lizzy Caplan married English stage and screen actor Tom Riley (and not too long after she split up with late actor Matthew Perry), the veteran film and television actress plunked down a tad more than $1.8 million for a circa 1961 modernist home in Los Angeles that nearly a dozen years later has popped up for sale with a $2.85 million price tag. Patricia Ruben of Sotheby’s International Realty—Los Feliz Brokerage holds the listing.

Alternatively, the 2,100-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-bath Hollywood Hills home, on a quiet street above Bronson Canyon in the Los Feliz Oaks neighborhood, is also available for rent at $15,000 per month, down from the original ask of $17,500 per month.

Beyond the gated courtyard entry and through the front doors, an atrium is bursting with lush greenery. Pale wood floors flow into the living room, anchored by a whitewashed raised hearth brick fireplace. Glass sliders open the room to the backyard, and clerestory windows bring tons of light into the fashionably eclectic space. A cozy adjoining sitting area is decked out with a curvaceous built-in sofa alongside built-in bookshelves.

The nearby kitchen, fitted with chef-grade appliances, emerald-green laminate cabinets and a rustic butcher block island set below two Moroccan lanterns, is open to a relaxed dining area that spills out to the backyard through more sliding glass doors.

The Oscar-winning Hollywood legends owned the terraced Fifth Avenue penthouse since the early 1980s.

One of Hollywood’s most successful and enduring couples, Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, long made their home on a 6.8-acre spread in Westport, Connecticut. For decades, they also maintained a penthouse pied-à-terre that Woodward, sixteen years after Newman’s death, has just hoisted onto the market for $9.95 million. Maintenance charges tally up to more than $13,000 per month, according to listings held by Noble Black and Jennifer Stillman of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

According to The New York Times, the couple acquired the penthouse in the early 1980s and used it for weeks-long stays in the city and for entertaining prominent, high-powered friends such as Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Tom Cruise, Cher, and Harry Belafonte. The sale is being handled by the couple’s children on behalf of Woodward, who largely retreated from public life after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2007. Carefully maintained but not updated much in recent years, the top-floor spread retains original prewar features like nearly 11-foot ceilings, herringbone wood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and decorative wood moldings and built-ins.

The apartment is one of two penthouses atop a handsome, J.E.R. Carpenter-designed limestone-clad building, which was completed in 1925 and stands at the corner of East 93^rd Street and Fifth Avenue across from the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. One of the more distinguished cooperative apartment houses on Fifth Avenue, other notable residents over the years include another entertainment industry couple who have been married for decades, Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan, and James Gorman, the former CEO of Morgan Stanley, who will become chairman of The Walt Disney Company next year.

Rupert Murdoch Takes a $20 Million Loss

Rupert Murdoch Takes a $20 Million Loss on His New York City Penthouse

The media tycoon took in just $23.8 million for the triplex aerie at One Madison that he acquired a decade ago for $43 million.

After a dizzying two years on and off the market and numerous price chops, Rupert Murdoch has finally sold his penthouse in New York’s Flatiron District to an as-yet-unidentified buyer for a speck under $24 million. The Fox News and News Corp owner bought the triplex at the One Madison tower in 2014 for a whopping $43 million, which means he took a stunning $20 million loss on the property, not counting carrying costs, improvement expenses and real estate fees. The nonagenarian billionaire originally aimed for a much higher (and profitable) sum when he first listed the apartment in 2022 for $62 million. Alas, failing to find an interested party at that sky-high price, the media magnate’s mansion in the sky received several price chops. It was last discounted in June to its final ask of $28.5 million.

The reason for the reductions was to keep the residence in line with comparable values in the area, Kyle Blackmon, the head of luxury sales at Compass, who represented the property, told Crain’s New York Business over the summer. “My client is a realist, and he is very astute about how markets function,” Blackmon explained to the newspaper.

The condo occupies the 58th, 59th, and 60th floors of the bronze and glass skyscraper and has been renovated during Murdoch’s decade-long residence. Altogether, the three-level spread comprises six bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms across its 7,143 square feet and is decked out with double-height, floor-to-ceiling windows that offer up panoramic views of the Empire State Building, along with the gold dome that caps the New York Edition hotel. And, for those with no fear of heights, a slender terrace wraps around the great room.
