David Duchovny has a lot to celebrate.
He sold his chic Malibu bachelor pad on Point Dume for a cool $11 million shortly after marrying his girlfriend of six years, Monique Pendleberry, 31.
The X Files star's, 64, former home has three bedrooms and an indoor-outdoor living plan over 3,580 square feet.
The home hit the market for $12.5 million after buying it for $4.75 million in 2016.
He originally rented the property from The X-Files creator Chris Carter when he needed a Los Angeles base.
Duchovny razed the existing house, and poured about $7 million into building the modern home.
Perhaps the most unique thing on the property is the guest house made out of an authentic train caboose.
'It's one of the things I'm most proud of that I've ever developed in my life,' Duchovny told WSJ of the caboose, which includes a living and sleeping area, dining nook, kitchen, bathroom, and even a roof deck.
'It's just an amazing little spot to be in,' he gushed.

The open-concept main house seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living, creating a breezy, relaxed vibe throughout the space.
Outside, there's a sprawling wooden deck, a cozy lounge with built-in heaters, a sparkling lap pool, a sunken firepit, and an outdoor kitchen perfect for entertaining.
You'll also find a Jacuzzi, a cold plunge, and an outdoor shower, making the backyard feel like a private spa retreat.
He shares the home with his new wife Monique Pendleberry and their dogs, Brick and Rookie.
Duchovny secretly married his much younger wife after six years of dating.

Monique was just 24 when she started dating the then 58-year-old Californication star.
Monique was born on June 14, 1993 and went to Newbury Park High School in Ventura Counry where she was the star of the soccer team.
She went on to play soccer in college at the University of California at Irvine and now runs a Malibu-based floral design company called Friday Flowers.
Duchovny and Pendleberry have largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight and only made their red carpet debut at the premiere of his film You People in 2023.
'They met at the juice company where Monique was working. I met David before she did, but we've all hung out. They travel together to New York, Canada and Malibu. But they're not dating, they're just friends,' Monique's uncle Dirk Drew told Radar Online in 2023.
The couple met at SunLife Organic Juicery, where Monique worked in 2017. A friend of David's owns the store.
Prior to Monique, David was married to actress Tea Leoni, 59, from 1997 to 2014.
The pair tied the knot in 1997 and quickly became one of Hollywood's most prominent power couples, often praised for keeping their private life relatively low-key despite their fame.
However, their relationship hit a rough patch in 2008 when Duchovny checked himself into a rehabilitation center for treatment of sex addiction.
The separation made headlines, but the two reunited in 2011, sparking hope for a lasting reconciliation.
Despite their efforts, the couple quietly parted ways again and ultimately finalized their divorce in 2014 after 17 years of marriage.
They share two children: daughter Madelaine West Duchovny, 24, who has begun forging her own path as an actress, and son Kyd Miller Duchovny, 21, who has largely stayed out of the spotlight.
