We love a home with a strong celebrity pedigree, and this gorgeous 1928-built home in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles definitely has some history to it. Leonardo DiCaprio scooped up the stunning estate for $7.1 million from Modern Family star Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband, Justin Mikita. If that isn’t enough star wattage for you, this is where Gwen Stefani called home from 1998 through 2007, when she was married to Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale. This new LA property will be joining at least six other homes owned by DiCaprio.
If these walls could talk, there would be a lot of gossip to share, but both Stefani and Ferguson put significant upgrades into the house to give it an old Hollywood feel with everything a celebrity needs to settle down. The home has four bedrooms, four bathrooms and 5,000 square feet to entertain in — and of course, plenty of indoor-outdoor living space to enjoy that California sunshine.
The most significant part of the house is the details — from intricate woodwork to stained glass windows — no architectural moment was left untouched in this house. It’s bright and airy and the perfect place for the Oscar winner to romance current girlfriend Camila Morrone. We have no idea if he’s got marriage on the brain, but this would be a perfect house for the two of them to start their lives together.
Don’t miss the incredible highlights from DiCaprio’s new estate — wait until you see the pool that Stefani designed, and DiCaprio will be swimming in — and be sure to check out even more photos on Dirt.
Exterior
Nestled into the hillside, the home has gorgeous views of the Los Angeles area from the front facade, but tons of privacy in the backyard.
Grand Staircase
The spiral staircase shows off the details of the Spanish tiling leading up to the chandelier on the second floor.
Stunning Woodwork
Take a look at the artwork in the ceiling, which complements the carved door at the top of the stairs and the sweeping lines of the railing.
Vintage Bathroom
Instead of modernizing the bathroom, the character of the home was kept intact with a vanity area and lighting that echoes back to the 1920s.
Media Room
Don’t let the Spanish-style architecture fool you, every celebrity needs a media room to binge Netflix.
Office Space
We aren’t sure if DiCaprio is an office type of guy, but Fegurson definitely meant business by adding the dark wood accents in this space.
Bright Kitchen
There’s nothing better than a bright and airy kitchen since it’s an area that is often heavily used in a home. We peep a wine fridge in there, too — perfect for entertaining.
Dining Room
The blue accents on the walls make for a very inviting space in the dining room.
Sit In Style
A sitting room may feel more formal, but we love the stained glass details in this room. It adds to that Spanish decor feel.
Posh Pool
There are tons of outdoor space with this home, but we love the waterfall design of the pool area. It doesn’t feel like a cookie-cutter approach to a much-desired California amenity.
