The downtown Los Angeles residence that Johnny Depp sold after divorcing Amber Heard is up for sale again ..
With all the notoriety Johnny Depp and Amber Heard attracted during their headline-making court case, what better time for a new owner to put the Depp-Heard former love nest on the market? Though only married for 15 months, the Los Angeles building was their home and, according to the listing agent, the one-bedroom penthouse was where they “spent a good amount of their time.” Depp actually owned five of the penthouses atop Downtown LA’s iconic Eastern Columbia Building, but following his 2016 divorce from Heard, he listed and sold all of them for a total of $12.78 million. Now, one of the apartments, the one-bedroom, two-bath penthouse, is again for sale - priced at $1.765 million.
Depp is well known for his acting in his many movies, including Edward ScissorHands and Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean series, but he is almost as well known for his penchant for owning eccentric real estate, which shows off the imagination that has proven to be a part of his fame. Johnny was one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood and could afford to buy almost any attractive or unusual property he desired. And he did!
Depp, who was born in Owensboro, Kentucky, owns or has owned a 45-acre island in the Bahamas that caught his eye when he was filming Pirates of the Caribbean, a collection of expensive homes in the Hollywood Hills that he planned on connecting with a series of tunnels, a Kentucky horse farm that he bought for his mother, an entire French village near St. Tropez, and the five LA penthouses.
Situated in one of the city’s most historic buildings the loft two-story, one-bedroom, two-bathroom residence sits atop the landmark Eastern Columbia Building. With 1,780 square feet of living space, the soaring ceilings elevate the striking presence of the space. Before continuing upstairs to the primary suite, one is provided with a cozy and intimate lounge area on the staircase landing. Centrally located on downtown's famous Broadway, this home is surrounded by fine dining, and high-end designer shops. In 2006, this iconic building was converted into condominiums with an array of amenities such as a rooftop saltwater pool, spa, fitness studio, sundeck, Zen garden and provides 24-hour concierge service.
The listing agents are Ernie Carswell and Rick Tyberg of Douglas Elliman, Beverly Hills.
