FOR SALE: It appears former silver screen power couple Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson are offloading their shared assets, listing this contemporary West Hollywood home. Originally bought by the pair in 2014 for $2.9 million, the property has received extensive cutting edge updates, from green-friendly rain collection system and solar panels, to the statement double-sided fireplace and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass walls. A plunge swimming pool, spacious lawn with covered porch, and luxury kitchen round out this stunning abode.

Snug in the Bronson Canyon, this pavilion has been newly renovated with modern details including white flooring, floor to ceiling glass walls, private courtyard and wraparound deck – an aesthetic Lisbeth Salander would surely approve of.
Travis Barker’s Suburban Calabasas Paradise

BOUGHT: Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker has been actively curating his real estate portfolio, most recently picking up a 7,196-square-foot home in the suburb of Calabasas – his second property in the area. This Italian villa-style house boasts a double-height living room, stunning private central courtyard with fireplace, backyard with pool, spa and fire pit and, of course, a fountain. No word on whether he plans to install a sound-proof room for all his jamming needs.
Craig Ferguson’s Malibu Beach House

Filled with quaint cottage details such as white bricked interior and fireplace, this 70’s-era beach house is the perfect California getaway.
