A storied piece of Hollywood is up for sale. Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren and her husband, director Taylor Hackford, are selling their Hollywood Hills estate for $12 million. This offers a rare chance to own a property with over a century of entertainment history.

The estate, which first appeared on the market at $18.5 million in 2021, covers 6.5 acres and spans approximately 10,199 square feet. It boasts more than luxury living; it is a remnant of Old Hollywood. An outdoor dining area provides views of a swimming pool, landscaped grounds, and the city skyline.

Built in 1911 for silent film star Dustin Farnum, the property has been home to several notable figures. It includes a wood-paneled library with built-in bookshelves and a fireplace. The design of the interiors balances nostalgia with modern luxury, featuring deep silk rugs, rich green tones, and vintage furnishings.

The property features a main residence, a guesthouse, an office and apartment above the garage, a swimming pool, and terraces surrounded by mature trees.

Jonas Heller, a listing agent, described the property as a rare opportunity due to its historical significance and substantial acreage. The estate is listed by Jonas Heller and Kurt Rappaport of Westside Estate Agency. Helen Mirren and Taylor Hackford have been married since 1997.

Mirren is known for her roles in “The Queen,” “1923,” and “MobLand.” On set, she observed co-stars like Pierce Brosnan and Harrison Ford showing professionalism and warmth. Both actors stayed on set with crew members, engaging with them instead of retreating to their trailers. Mirren noted their positive attitude and love for acting compared to others in the field.

Mirren has won five Emmy Awards, an Academy Award, and a Tony Award, along with BAFTAs and Golden Globes.
