Joe Manganiello, who plays the hot werewolf "Alcide Herveaux" in hit supernatural series "True Blood" has reportedly found a new haven in Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles. Manganiello purchased the residence for around $1.8 million, according to several media reports.
According to the Real Estalker, Manganiello paid for the home via a trust sometime late in April 2013.He apparently paid 2 percent more than the original asking price. Did he like the house that much?
Listing records of the home state that it is a 2,422 square feet residence comprising of four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The mid century- modern style home is laden with amenities like a shapely outdoor pool, an external barbecue area, a grassy backyard and swanky interiors with the latest fittings and fixtures.
Zillow describes the home as:
Perched off Nichols Canyon, the home was built in 1963 but has been updated to create a "spa-like retreat" with spacious outdoor living spaces, including a lounge area surrounding a pool, as well as a fire pit and built-in barbecue. The outdoor space flows right into the indoor living spaces, which are arranged in an open floor plan with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths.
Steven Aaron, head of the Steven Aaron Realtor Group tells Yahoo that the home went under escrow in a week after it hit the listing market. The home was renovated before being put up for sale. The area is its Unique Selling Proposition. Nichols Canyon is the least traffic ridden area in Hollywood Hills.

Apparently, after the shooting of "Spiderman", Manganiello was so broke that he was literally thrown out of his apartment. In an interview with "Men's Health" magazine, he says:
"About 6 months after the shoot ended (for Spiderman), I got thrown out of my apartment for not paying rent,' he revealed. Lost my car. Lost all my clothes. Furniture. The sheriff gave me 5 minutes to collect my things in a duffle bag and leave the apartment."
But looks like, True Blood has vanquished all his financial woes. Explains the $1.8 million home purchase.
