Jesse Tyler Ferguson, of “Modern Family,” is letting go of his Los Feliz digs. He and his husband, Justin Mikita, have listed the appealing abode for $6,995,000, Architectural Digest reported.
The two bought the 1920s Spanish-style spread in 2013 for $4.55 million.
Past celebrity owners reportedly include the “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson. Before Pattinson, the chart-topping singer Gwen Stefani owned the home, purchasing it in 1998 for $1,375,000. She was responsible for many upgrades to the property, according to the Los Angeles Times, including adding the lavish pool and waterfall.
The singer sold the bachelorette pad in 2007 for $4,795,000, after she had moved to Beverly Hills with her then-husband, Gavin Rossdale. After the couple split, their wildly designed 90210 mansion made headlines with a $21.6 million sale price.
When Ferguson and Mikita arrived, they tapped the interior designer Peter Gurski, to add their own touches to the 4,926-square-foot interior, according to AD. Eye-catching details include placing a bird cage over an ornate chandelier in the domed entry.
Other design touches feature bold colors and wallpaper prints, and a mix of serious and silly artwork. The result was featured in Architectural Digest in 2018.
If you like the look, the listing notes that the home can be offered furnished.
The gated property is hidden behind hedges and trees, for plenty of privacy. A long driveway leads to a three-car garage.
Inside, the “trophy 1920s” home has been renovated, upgraded, and maintained with modern finishes, while holding on to the original details and character of the building, such as tiled floors, stained-glass windows, and arched entrances.
You enter through a two-story formal entrance with a domed and stenciled ceiling, and find a teal-toned library, as well as a large, light-filled living room with 25-foot ceilings and a stone fireplace.
The formal dining room is decorated with designer wallpaper and lighting, and topped with a coffered ceiling, and is adjoined by the eat-in chef’s kitchen, with a breakfast nook, custom built-ins, and large wood island.
Other features include a family room that converts into a screening room, with a projector and drop screen for movie nights. Almost every room in the house has access to outdoor space, ideal for entertaining or al fresco dining.
Outside, on just over a half-acre, there are multiple levels dotted with courtyards, fountains, outdoor fireplaces, and a dining area. A waterfall flows into the pool and spa. Plus, the grounds include a pool bathroom, yoga room, and deck with views of the city and Griffith Park Observatory.
Known for his portrayal of Mitchell Pritchett on “Modern Family,” the actor earned four Screen Actor Guild awards for his role on the show. He has also appeared in such Broadway shows as “Our Town,” and “Fully Committed,” for which he won a Drama Desk award.
Jennifer Akbari with Compass holds the listing.
