A luxurious Southern California estate once owned by the late actress Diane Keaton has hit the real estate market, listed at approximately $27 million. Keaton passed away at the age of 79 less than two months ago.
Situated in the prestigious Sullivan Canyon neighborhood of Los Angeles, Keaton had attempted to sell the property earlier in March for $28.9 million.
This Spanish Colonial mansion spans 9,200 square feet and offers stunning 360-degree views of the expansive Los Angeles landscape.
The home features a range of luxury amenities, including an outdoor swimming pool, a wine storage area, multiple fireplaces, and strategically placed skylights near the kitchen.
The Oscar-winning actress also featured this magnificent residence in her 2017 book, “The House That Pinterest Built.”
Prior to Keaton’s passing on October 11 due to primary bacterial pneumonia, the property had been taken off the market for a short period.

Weeks after the passing of The First Wives Club star, the home was described in a listing as a ‘rare architectural masterpiece’ converted into ‘something truly special’ by Keaton over an eight-year renovation period.
A listing for the property read, according to Realtor, ‘Nestled in the heart of prestigious Sullivan Canyon, one of L.A.’s most revered equestrian enclaves, the residence is not only grand but extremely private and eclectic.’
The listing mentioned the 2017 book by the publishing house Rizzoli, as well as the house’s presence ‘in numerous design publications’ and reputation among people ‘who recognize its artistry.’
‘This residence is more than its architecture and craftsmanship. It is a reflection of care, creativity, and a life lived with intention.’
The home has a brick exterior while the interior has a black-and-white motif and is loaded with priceless knickknacks Keaton picked out, in addition to specifically-selected materials.
‘The estate is adorned with thousands of hand-selected vintage Chicago bricks and a mix of reclaimed materials that define its unmistakable character,’ a Zillow listing read. ‘Cascading beams frame the kitchen and living spaces, setting the tone for a home that feels both distinctive and intimate.’
Keaton told the publication Wine Spectator in 2017 that she had a lifelong ‘interest in homes and the concept of home,’ but tended not to ‘land and stay’ after finding flaws with wherever she was – but not the Sullivan Canyon place.
‘I always had an interest in homes and the concept of home, but the problem is I never really land and stay,’ she said. ‘Something’s wrong – but something’s right, because I love it.’

Keaton left behind an amazing legacy in Hollywood, with some of her performances in the 1970’s hailed as the decade’s best.
They included the titular role in the 1977 comedy Annie Hall, which was written and directed by Woody Allen, who she collaborated with on a number of memorable projects.
Keaton in 1978 would claim the Best Actress in a Leading Role award for her work in Annie Hall, her first of four lifetime nominations. She would also receive nods for her work in movies such as 1981’s Reds, 1996’s Marvin’s Room and 2003’s Something’s Gotta Give.
Other notable movies Keaton performed in throughout her decades-long career included 1987’s Baby Boom; 1996’s The First Wives Club; and the Father of the Bride film series.

Following Keaton’s passing less than two months ago, a who’s who of Hollywood – including Leonardo DiCaprio, Bette Midler and Francis Ford Coppola, among others – released emotional statements paying memorial to the late star.
DiCaprio called the Oscar-winning star ‘brilliant, funny and unapologetically herself,’ adding that ‘she will be deeply missed.’
Middler said of Keaton, ‘She was hilarious, a complete original, and completely without guile, or any of the competitiveness one would have expected from such a star. What you saw was who she was…oh, la, lala!’
The Godfather director Coppola said in an Instagram post, ‘Words can’t express the wonder and talent of Diane Keaton,’ adding, ‘Endlessly intelligent, so beautiful…Everything about Diane was creativity personified.’
