Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt is looking to part ways with his light-filled LA home, which happens to have quite the design history. Built in 1940 and designed by Arthur Hawes, the abode was remodeled shortly after in 1949 by praised architect Paul Williams. The 3,771-square-foot house retains its subtle Hollywood glamour and simultaneously feels incredible down to earth, which may reflect the celebrity seller’s public image as well. Listed for $3.85 million, the storied home will soon have a new owner to contribute to its legacy.The 4-bedroom, 4-bath residence is full of character, boasting both old and new elements. While certain areas of the house like the great room and master bedroom exude contemporary chic with a hint of vintage, other spaces like the kitchen and some bathrooms are simply stuck in the past. A new owner would have the chance to bring the kitchen to life with stylish finishes, and could even knock down a small wall to make it larger.Outside may be where most want to gather, however, since there’s an expansive patio, lush lawn, and large pool with ample lounge chairs surrounding it. The backyard pavilion has a lounge area and his and hers changing rooms, so this property is perfect for pool parties.To learn more about this listing and see the panoramic views for yourself, contact Courtney Smith of Compass. Variety first reported the new listing.
