Steven Spielberg Sells Malibu Home With An Incredible View
While other celebs living on Malibu's Broad Beach are trying to import sand to save their eroding beach, Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw were still able to unload their oceanfront Craftsman-style mansion for $26 million. Filmmaker Steven Spielberg and actress Kate Capshaw haven't been living in their mansion on Broad Beach in Malibu for many years, instead opting to rent it out for $125,000 to $150,000 a month while they live in the Pacific Palisades, Curbed LA reports. It seems, however, that the couple has sold the house for $26 million to an unidentified buyer.
The 7,237-square-foot house was built in 1992 and designed to look like a Craftsman. It includes six bedrooms, nine bedrooms, a theatre, a pool and numerous places from which to gaze at the ocean, plus a two-bedroom guest house on the 1.08-acre property, according to the L.A. Times. Neighbors include Pierce Brosnan, Danny DeVito and Dustin Hoffman
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
