After less than two months of being listed in the market, the home of former couple Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith has been sold for a shocking price of $15.947 million. The so-called Isidor Eisner estate located in Los Angeles was acquired by the former couple in 1999 for $4.2 million. Rumor has it that the extravagant mansion was purchased by the Chief Content Officer of Netflix, Ted Sarandos.
The Spanish-meets-Italian Revival-style mansion boasts seven bedrooms, seven full bathrooms and three and a half bathrooms. According to Variety, the purchase of the home breaks sales records as the highest amount ever paid for a single family home in Hancock Park. The record was previously named after the couple Eric Eisner, film producer, and Stacy Bender, the designer of Alice + Olvia. The couple sold their property for $11 million last year.
Originally built in 1925, Banderas and Griffith's former mansion is elegantly decorated by Gordon Kaufmann. According to the listing details, the 15,110-square-foot mansion has a grand entrance and Spanish-style interiors. It also features a double height banquet hall, a formal dining area with coffered ceiling and a two-story kitchen. Additional features of the home include a fitness room, luxurious bar and a recording studio. On the outside there is a private swimming pool in the central courtyard.
Antonio Banderas is a Spanish actor, singer, producer and director, who has an estimated net worth of $45 million, according to CelebrityNetWorth.com. He is known for his iconic role in the movie "The Mask of Zorro." Melanie Griffith's net worth, on the other hand, is estimated to be $20 million.
According to Daily Mail, the couple was married for 18 years before they announced their divorce in June last year. Griffith was previously married twice before she married Banderas. Meanwhile, Banderas was only married once to Ana Lenza before he got in a relationship with Griffith in 1995.
