Wally Pfister, the popular cinematographer famous for his work on blockbusters likes "The Dark Knight" and "Inception", has listed his home in Los Angeles for $4.69 million.
The Los Angeles Times broke news of the deal noting that Mimi Starrett of John Aaroe Group is marketing the residence.
Listing records show that Pfister bought the home in 2006 for $2.27 million. The residence is a 4,990-square-foot single-family home, comprising of five bedrooms and six bathrooms.
The contemporary home has hardwood flooring, vaulted drywall and tray ceilings with skylights and floor-to-ceiling glass windows with slider doors.
The residence has an informal living area, a dining space and a eat-in gourmet kitchen - all encompassed in an open floor plan.
A family room, a home theater, a great room an art studio are also a part of the house. The master suite has a Jacuzzi and large walk-in closets. A deck opens out from the suite.
Outside, the home has a guest apartment with a kitchen, which sits right above the six-car parking garage. A pool with a spa and a separate lotus pond lend the property ample water features. The decks and open patios allow for outdoor recreation and lounging, while providing beautiful views of the Lower Nichols Canyon and Mt. Olympus.
The listing describes the place as an "exquisite warm modern compound" calling it a "rare opportunity to own a compound with land in the Hollywood Hills and yet minutes to the best shopping, restaurants and nightlife Los Angeles has to offer."

Pfister recently made his directorial debut with the Johnny Depp-starring sci-fi film "Transcendence". Speaking of how cinematography helped him in his directorial attempt, Pfister said in an interview with The Wrap, he said:
"It got me about 25 percent of the way, but it was an important 25 percent."
"The value of the experience was in understanding how to run a set and of having to answer lots of questions while keeping things moving along. But directing opens up that narrow field of view and it becomes about working with the actors on their performances and the sound design and the visual effects. So that other 75 percent represents a huge expansion of talent. I'm visual by nature, but I prefer directing," he added.
The movie didn't do very well at the box office with many critics saying it was dull and failed to make a statement with its intelligent conversations.
