The public can now sink their fangs into the Los Angeles home of sparkly “Twilight” actor Robert Pattinson.
The home, which once served as a love nest of sorts for Pattinson and expired flame Kristen Stewart, was previously shopped as a pocket listing, but recently came to market, showing up on the MLS. Curbed reports the property, located in the city’s Los Feliz neighborhood, is listed at the same price at which it was offered privately: $6.75 million.
Known as the Seyler House, it was designed by Stiles O. Clements in 1922 and is said to be “one of the first private residences built in the gentle hills above Los Feliz,” according to the listing notes. Sited on a sloping 1.5-acre lot, the classic Mediterranean has three bedrooms, four baths and approximately 4,000 square feet of room to move. It features a lagoon pool with a waterfall feature, various gardens, ornate tile work and wallpaper, and the one amenity no thespian should be without: a private amphitheater.
Rumor has it that Pattinson purchased the home for $6.275 million from none other than Los Angeles Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in 2011. The list of past celebrity owners is also said to include the likes of “Falling Skies” actor Noah Wyle, cinematographer Robert Richardson and director Robert Luketic.
Besides supplying waves of tasty tabloid bits over the last few years, the relationship of “Twilight” stars Pattinson and Stewart also supplied plenty of real estate fodder. In 2012, following a much-publicized split from Stewart, Pattinson left the Los Feliz property and found solace at the dreamy Wallace Neff-designed Ojai compound of Reese Witherspoon. The ranch estate hit the market for $10 million shortly after Pattinson’s stay began, but has seen its asking price reduced to $5.9 million over the last year.
That Pattinson didn’t return to his Los Feliz home following his Ojai sabbatical could have something to do with the fact that Stewart decided to purchase her own home in the neighborhood. Instead of driving by a constant reminder of what once was, Pattinson opted to rent a mansion in an ultra-private enclave of Beverly Hills.
