Amanda Seyfried is cementing her status as an East Coaster. The Oscar-nominated actor, who primarily lives at a farm in upstate New York, has listed her 2,700-square-foot Los Angeles residence for about $3.2 million. Seyfried bought the traditional-style dwelling from her Jennifer’s Body co-star, Adam Brody, in 2011 for $1.85 million. Before that, it was owned by Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst.
Completed in 1916, the two-story Hollywood Hills home is tucked behind gates and tall hedges. It features three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a formal living room with a fireplace, a white-and-blue kitchen, a sunroom, an balcony, and a spacious porch overlooking the backyard. The yard hosts a pool and spa with pergola-shaded loungers, a detached garage-turned-gym, and landscaped gardens.
The Testament of Ann Lee star’s favored vintage countryside-inspired look is apparent: A breakfast nook is swathed in floral wallpaper reminiscent of a Laura Ashley print, dark hardwoods line the floors, and light fixtures with an antique vibe feature throughout. “I grew up in a stone house,” Seyfried told AD during a tour of her Manhattan pied-à-terre. “I just love history, and I love the smell of old wood. History has a smell to it. You know what I mean?”
