Jeremy Renner, who stars as Hawkeye in the "Avengers" movies, recently sold his home located in Runyon Canyon for a discounted price of $4.3 million. According to a report from zillow.com, the original listed price of the mansion was $4.495 million.
The mansion was built in 1926 and was formerly owned by legendary director and screenwriter Preston Sturges. The mansion has five bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. The front porch is covered and the house has an antique bar with a copper top. There is also a dining area, a seat-in kitchen as well as a terrace with a rooftop and a guesthouse.
The overall measurement of the house is 7,000 square feet and it sits in about a quarter of an acre lot. The said historic home was purchased back in 2009 for just $1.35 million, according to listing agents Branden and Rayni Romito Williams of Williams and Williams. It is deemed to be steeped in history, as rumors about the house include the supposed first wedding of silent actor Charlie Chaplin in the so-called "luxurious gentleman's room."
This latest sale was the work of both Jeremy Renner and fellow actor Kristoffer Winters who have dabbled in the lucrative real estate business of house-flipping. According to a report from la.curbed.com, the two have been on a shopping spree since 2002. Among the projects the two have undertaken is a bachelor pad located in Holmby Hills that was sold for $24 million in 2013.
Renner, according to a report from the latimes.com, is not only a fixture in Marvel films playing Clint Barton aka Hawkeye; he has also played key roles in movies such as "American Hustle," "The Bourne Legacy" and "Mission: Impossible 5." His net worth is estimated to be $35 million, according to Celebrity Networth. Winters, on the other hand, has had roles in "Hurt Locker," alongside Renner and "Fair Game." He is the full-time partner in the business and has an interior design firm.
