Brett Butler Sells Hollywood Hills Home

08-266405Actress and comedienne Brett Butler sold a three-bedroom home in Hollywood Hills for $2 million. The home had been on the market for $2.347 million. Although the house sold in April, the papers weren’t recorded until last month. It doesn’t appear to have been bought by another celebrity.

According to Mr. Big Time, the house has three fireplaces, an atrium great room, a pool, separate guest house and a fair-sized yard on just over 3/4 of an acre.

The atrium great room has a ton of windows, with views of the trees and hills. It opens out straight to the pool. We love the brightness of the room with all of those windows. Not really digging the fireplace, though. But there’s not enough of it in the pictures to get a great view.

The kidney-shaped pool has several palm trees at one end and a little deck/ entertaining area next to it. And the kitchen? Well, you know our love of kitchens. It seems nice, with what could possibly be cherry wood cabinets. A six-burner stove is always a good sign. But other than that, there aren’t enough shots of the kitchen for us to adequately drool over it. And that? Makes us sad indeed, my lovelies.

The living room seems pretty huge, with a raised ceiling and exposed beams. The beam look may not be for everyone, but we like it when it’s done right. You can fit a couple of extremely long couches and plenty of chairs, so it would be perfect for someone who likes to have quiet parties with lots of friends sitting around, sipping wine and talking about their latest book club read.

Anyway, we’re a little surprised that anything in the Hollywood Hills is going for “only” $2,000,000, especially one with views of the city and Hollywood sign.

Butler is best known for her acerbic humor and television show, Grace Under Fire.

The house that Butler sold has three fireplaces, a master suite with a large bath and shower, an atrium great room, and an overscale living room, according to public records and listing information. The property also contains city and Hollywood sign views, a long, flat grassy yard, a pool, tall palms and a separate guest house, all on a 0.78-acre parcel, according to public records and listing information. Butler had purchased the house in 1994 for an undisclosed price through her Graceland Trust.

Yes, you’ve given us an exact, word-for-word quote from Mr. Big Time’s write-up of the sale, which we linked. Um, thanks?
