Taylor Kitsch, the "Friday Night Lights" actor, has reportedly bought a swanky bachelor pad in Marina Del Rey for $705,000.
The Los Angeles Times broke news of the deal. Kitsch was represented by agents Heather Swaya and Heather Gersley of Gibson International. Tamra Pardee of Pardee properties was the listing agent of the home.
Public records of the condo state that the residence has 1,240 square-feet of open concept space and two bathrooms. The interiors feature dark hardwood flooring and drywall ceilings with floor-to-ceiling glass windows and slider doors. The studio-like home has a modern kitchen with a din-in bar and a small laundry area too. There is a slim balcony with a cozy sitting area.
The listing describes the place as a "loft-like condo" that "emits a smart and creative vibe."
The condo is situated in the Steel Lofts Building and offers two underground car parks for its residents. Take a tour of the lofts in the building in a video below:
Kitsch shot to fame with his role in "Friday Night Lights," and he fell in love with Texas while shooting the series. Basically a Canadian, Kitsch is a country fan and built a home in Austin, TX.
Chatting with GQ about why he never settled down in Los Angeles like most other celebs, he said: "Oh, God, I could give you a million reasons why not L.A. I know actors that love the celebrity. For me, it's tough because you're doing six months of press. That's why you put all the work in and almost kill yourself, because if you've got to talk about it a million times, you'd better be proud. And I can't work. I lost a job that I wish I could have been a part of -three scenes in a character-driven movie that I'd murder to be a part of."
About the house in Austin, he said:
"I think even unconsciously I know this house is going to represent some kind of cave that I'll want to get back into: Peace of mind, because it's chaos."
Kitsch is currently all set to star in the HBO TV movie "The Normal Heart," that is slated to premiere May 25th 2014.
