A recently listed home in the Hollywood Hills has strong ties to entertainment industry royalty.
The Spanish Revival residence is the childhood home of director Gia Coppola, now 38, who lived there for almost two decades with her mother, Jacqui Getty. Getty, who's now selling the historic abode, bought it from her father-in-law, Francis Ford Coppola, back in 2013. While the Godfather director never lived in the house himself, he and his wife, Eleanor, owned it for about 20 years, after purchasing it around 1994. Their children Roman and Sofia similarly bought homes in the area so that the whole family could be near one another.

The three-bedroom, four-bath property has hosted the who's who of Hollywood over the years. Getty would regularly throw parties, with guests ranging from the Smashing Pumpkins to Leonardo DiCaprio to Demi Moore and the Olsen twins. 'There was always something happening at our house,' Getty said in a statement. 'So many people have passed through here, each with unforgettable memories. Everyone who walked through these doors always felt at home.' Kristal Moffett at Compass holds the $2.3 million listing.
The home, originally built in 1922, retains many original details, including the red roof tile, period wood detailing, wrought-iron balconettes, and arched French doors and windows. Getty's favorite room is the kitchen, which has a cozy farmhouse feel with a breakfast nook in the corner that looks out on the lush landscaping, courtesy of Studio Art Luna. The primary suite opens up to a private balcony, and the additional two bedrooms have en suite baths as well.
Outside, the detached garage has been converted into a guest suite complete with a kitchenette. The flexible space can also be used as a home office or an art studio, where you can keep the property's creative legacy going. The backyard includes a small pool and several seating areas for outdoor hangs or alfresco dining. One section is currently set up like a living room, with a comfy couch and a fireplace.
Getty is moving on from the Hollywood Hills home to make her way back east—she grew up in New York and wants to return, with the hopes of having a little farm. And while the Coppola family will always have strong ties to Los Angeles, they have historically snapped up property outside the City of Angels, too. A few years back, for example, Francis Ford Coppola's private island in Belize popped up for sale with a relatively low price tag of just $2.2 million.Best of Robb Report
