Clint Eastwood’s former estate in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, has sold for $18.55 million, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. The Hollywood icon lived in the home during his term as mayor of Carmel from 1986 to 1988.
The property was originally listed for $21 million in August by its owner, retired investor Frederick O’Such, who had purchased it from Eastwood nearly 30 years ago for $2.5 million. O’Such invested an additional $2.5 million into renovating the estate, a project that took two years to finish.
According to The Journal, O’Such declined to reveal the homebuyer’s identity, but confirmed that custom furnishings were included in the sale. Tim Allen of Coldwell Banker Realty, who represented both the buyer and seller, noted the deal closed quickly amid strong interest from multiple parties.
The estate is currently listed as active under contract.
The century-old Las Ondas estate, situated on an 11,400-square-foot lot with ocean views just minutes away from Carmel Beach, offers a harmonious blend of Spanish Revival architecture and modern luxury. The home features a stunning gourmet kitchen with top of the line appliances, a temperature controlled wine room, two luxurious primary suites and multiple indoor/outdoor living spaces, according to the property’s listing.
The home measures 4,442 square feet, with four bedrooms and four full bathrooms.
