Big Bang Theory Star Johnny Galecki Lists Home With Hollywood Past for $11.9 Million
After first putting it up for lease more than a year ago, Big Bang Theory actor Johnny Galecki has put his historic Los Angeles home up for sale. He’s asking for $11.9 million, which is a significant increase from the $9.2 million he paid for the abode in 2015. The home was previously owned by Jason Statham and before him, Ben Stiller. If the property sells at the current list price, it would be one of the most expensive homes ever sold in the celebrity-favored neighborhood, Outpost Estates, located in the eastern Hollywood Hills. Celebrities like Winona Ryder, Felicity Huffman, Russell Brand, and Madelaine Petsch reside in the neighborhood.
The Spanish-style home sprawls over a two-parcel property that spans half an acre. It features a two-story main house and separate guest house with six bedrooms in 7,400 square feet. Sticking with its roots, the pad is detailed with a traditional clay tile roof, antique fixtures, restored terra-cotta tiles, and an original speakeasy pub that takes you back to the 1920s.

The actor’s home is invisible from the street thanks to a tall, ivy-covered wall. The main level includes a billiard room, an eat-in kitchen with premium appliances, a TV lounge, and a state-of-the-art screening room that features polished wood paneling and plush carpeting. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including the main suite that is outfitted with a paneled leather wall, fireplace, and balcony. The room has dual walk-in closets and a bright ensuite bathroom that is finished with marble tile.
Outside features a gated driveway which leads to the detached two-car garage right below the home’s upstairs guesthouse that has two bedrooms. Outside, the backyard is decked out in colorful tile and features tropical foliage, shady patios, a covered dining terrace, fireplace, built-in BBQ center, and a mosaic-tiled swimming pool and spa.
