Brad Pitt has officially offloaded one property from his portfolio … the actor just closed the deal on his Los Angeles-area home, with Austin Butler taking over the deed to the estate.
Real estate sources tell TMZ … Butler scooped up Pitt’s former 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Los Feliz property … and closed the sale last Friday after going into escrow in an off-market deal last month.
We’re told the “Elvis” star nabbed the house for a whopping $5.2 million … which is certainly a deal given what Pitt paid for the historic house.
We broke the news last month … the Oscar winner was selling his Los Angeles-area abode only 2 years after picking it up for $5.5 million. Pitt seemed eager to ditch the home … especially after it was broken into and ransacked earlier in the summer.
Though per the police, the alleged culprits have since been arrested … so Butler can rest easy and enjoy the house’s famed scenic views.
Remember, the estate, which was built in 1960, has sweeping views of the city and has a rich history tied to Hollywood. Known as “The Steel House,” the home’s previous owners include Aileen Getty and Maroon 5’s James Valentine, among others.
