Only 15 months ago, this Brentwood home proudly houses the Spider-Man lead actor, Tobey Maguire. Now, the actor who portrayed Peter Parker in many of the franchise's films, just got himself an amazing almost $2M profit on this home he bought in Santa Monica, says Los Angeles Times.
The Golden Globe Awards Nominee for Best Actor in a Drama Film for the 2009 Movie "Brothers" reportedly bought this Brentwood property from TV host Ricki Lake for $8.45 million and recently sold it for $10.25M. This should have changed his already impressive $75M reported net worth by Celebrity Net Worth by a jump, right?
The Santa Monica estate, which the actor turned film producer and quite possibly, a budding real estate investor if he wishes to, rests on 0.75 acres of land and boasts of a plantacion-style home built in 1949, notes LA Times.
The recently bought Maguire home containing six bedrooms and 5.5 baths also has a living room, great room, a breakfast bar, a den, a library, a sauna and a guest suite.
Based on the photos published on the Huffington Post in 2013, when Ricki was still selling the home, new owners of the estate just got themselves their own personal spa resort!
Wide stone flooring surrounded with artistically landscaped ground of evergreens and proudly-standing palm trees will welcome guests of the Brentwood property. A view of the plantacion-style home is peeking amidst more palm trees and rich foliage as you go closer from the gates.
Inside, the white motiff of the walls, ceilings and doors create an immaculate ambiance, complemented with dark hardwood floors. Boldly colored sofas in deep red, walls-to-ceilings windows, stunning chandeliers and very artistic lamps await guests willingly.
Each room in the house has spanning windows that would fool you into believing you are still outside. The master's bedroom is large, spacious and very comfortable, with a fireplace nearby and stunning garden views. Bathrooms are all masterfully-designed to give the owners a relaxing dip in the tub. There is also a personal gym with two windows for each side, enticing one to bask in the sun.
Family bonding is encouraged in its spacious great room adorned with aesthetic lights overhead. New owners could throw a pool party,have a feast in the outdoor dining and kitchen and just do fun-filled activities in the wide beautifully-manicured lawn.
What's interesting about this property, is that it really has a proud history of celebrity owners. Even before Ricki and Tobey owned this Sta. Monica estate, this was owned by "Monica" of "Friends" herself, Courteney Cox. The "Cougar Town" actress and her husband at that time, David Arquette, sold it for $6.5M to Ricki in 2002, says Redfin.
