A home in Brookline, Mass., which was used as a backdrop to shoot brief scenes in the Oscar-nominated movie "American Hustle", has hit the market for $5.49 million.
The residence at 64 Dudley Street was used to film conman Irving Rosenfeld's (Christian Bale) past, a small flashback to show his hey-days.
According to Curbed, the home was built about eight decades ago and has been renovated over time. It was built for a Standard Oil executive. The listing of the home lies with Andrea Youman of Youman Realty.
According to the listing records, the residence is a 9,581-square-foot single-family residence sitting on a large 35,158-square-foot lot. Comprised of seven bedrooms, five full and one half bathroom, interiors of the house feature mixed flooring, drywall ceilings and French doors and windows.
The home offers spacious, luxurious living with features like a heated indoor pool, a tennis court and landscaped gardens outside and a parking garage and a carriage house as well.
"As seen in the Golden Globe winning and Oscar nominated film "American Hustle," your dream home awaits. Featuring the best water views of the Brookline Reservoir, this Georgian Revival Estate originally was designed for a Standard Oil Executive. This property recently underwent extensive renovations but maintains the charm of yesteryear," the listing reads.
"American Hustle" has largely been shot in New Jersey and New York, apart from that little scene in Massachusetts.
Judy Becker, the set designer for the super hit movie opened up about her work in "American Hustle" in an interview with the New York Times. Becker whipped up a total of 140 designs for the movie, but not all of them ended up on screen. Talking about doing up the house that featured as Roasalyn and Irving's home (Jennifer Lawrence and Christian Bale respectively), she said:
"It was a house in an area of Medford, Mass., that was all ranch houses from the '50s and '60s. This one had a great layout and had been completely renovated; the only thing left from the period, besides the architecture, was the stone fireplace. We covered everything with wallpaper or paint, carpeted the whole house, did all the window treatments and switched out the appliances."
