Diane Keaton's £21.5m LA Mansion Hits Market Weeks After Her Death
Diane Keaton's LA mansion for sale after her death

The luxurious Los Angeles mansion owned by the late, legendary actress Diane Keaton has been listed for sale for approximately $27 million, less than two months after her passing at the age of 79.

A Rare Architectural Masterpiece

Located in the highly sought-after and private Sullivan Canyon equestrian area of Los Angeles, the 9,200-square-foot Spanish Colonial home offers breathtaking, panoramic 360-degree views. Keaton had previously attempted to sell the property in March for $28.9 million, but it was withdrawn from the market in the weeks before her death on October 11 from primary bacterial pneumonia.

Now described in listings as a 'rare architectural masterpiece', the home was transformed by Keaton over an eight-year renovation into a deeply personal residence. The estate features a distinctive brick exterior, crafted from thousands of hand-selected vintage Chicago bricks, and an interior defined by a striking black-and-white motif filled with the actress's personally curated treasures.

Luxury Features and Personal Legacy

The expansive property boasts a host of deluxe amenities, including an outdoor pool, a dedicated wine storage area, numerous fireplaces, and skylights positioned near the kitchen. Its unique style, a reflection of Keaton's celebrated taste, even earned it a place on the cover of Architectural Digest.

Keaton documented her passion for the project in her 2017 book, 'The House That Pinterest Built', published by Rizzoli. In an interview with Wine Spectator the same year, she spoke of her lifelong interest in homes, noting that she often found flaws in places she lived, but not in this Sullivan Canyon sanctuary. 'Something's wrong - but something's right, because I love it,' she said of her tendency not to settle, highlighting her special connection to this property.

A Hollywood Icon's Enduring Legacy

Diane Keaton leaves behind an immense cinematic legacy, with iconic performances in the 1970s hailed as among the decade's best. She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in 1977's Annie Hall and received three further Oscar nominations for films including Reds and Something's Gotta Give.

Following her passing, tributes poured in from across Hollywood. Leonardo DiCaprio remembered her as 'brilliant, funny and unapologetically herself', while director Francis Ford Coppola said, 'Everything about Diane was creativity personified.' The sale of her uniquely crafted home marks a poignant postscript to the life of a true Hollywood original.
