Would you like to be the next owner of an estate owned by one of Hollywood's power couples?
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, two of the biggest names in the industry, have just listed their New Orleans home, reports TMZ.
Brangelina's home in New Orleans' French Quarter is currently on the market for $6.5M, and Judith Oudt of Latter & Blum is the couple's real estate agent, notes the Los Angeles Times. The couple bought the property in 2006 for $3.5M, the news site adds.
The home of the Academy Award winning "12 Years a Slave" actor-producer and "Changeling" actress is reportedly a row house covering almost 6000 sq.ft. of lot but the three-story home covers more than 7600 sq. ft. of living space. Features of the traditional New Orleans home include five bedrooms, three full baths, two half baths, an upgraded kitchen, a front balcony, a laundry area and a two-car garage, describes LA Times.
The home also displays details like a grand staircase, arch-topped French doors, plant boxes and dormer windows. Built in the early half of 1800's, the rowhouse showcases brick and marble materials and Venetian-plastered walls. Aside from the main residence, there is a guesthouse for the new owners' visitors, adds the news outlet.
The 51-year-old actor of the upcoming movie "The Big Short Short" currently being filmed in New Orleans, bought the property after Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005. Pitt helped rebuild New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward which was devastated by the calamity, notes LA Times.
On the other other hand, the recipient of the 2014 Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award has been going around the world to help different communities in their fight against human rights violation, poverty, hunger, injustice and war. Just recently, the "Unbroken" producer-director and "Maleficient" star voiced out her opinion during the United Nations Security Council meeting in Manhattan about the hard times faced by millions of Syrian refugees today, reports Mirror.
The actress spoke for the Syrians who are victims of the four-year conflict in the country, the site reports. "We cannot look at Syria, and the evil that has arisen from the ashes of indecision, and think this is not the lowest point in the world's inability to protect and defend the innocent. We are standing by in Syria," said Jolie at the UN Council, as noted by Mirrror.
"It is sickening to see thousands of refugees drowning on the doorstep of the world's wealthiest continent. No one risks the lives of their children in this way except out of utter desperation," Jolie added in her speech.
Jolie, who has six children with Pitt, has visited Syria 11 times since the crisis began in 2011, notes Mirror.
