Inside Helen Mirren’s historic Hollywood compound after $5.5m price cut

Hollywood has long been home to some of the world's most iconic residences, but only a handful can truly claim to be part of the city's cinematic history. One such property is the sprawling Hollywood Hills compound owned by Academy Award-winning actress Helen Mirren and acclaimed director Taylor Hackford. According to Realtor.com, after undergoing a thoughtful renovation, the estate has returned to the market with an asking price of $12.99 million - roughly $5.5 million less than its original 2021 listing price of $18.5 million. The relaunch offers buyers another opportunity to own a rare piece of old Hollywood real estate that combines architectural heritage, celebrity ownership and modern luxury. A century of Hollywood history Built between 1910 and 1911 for silent film star Dustin Farnum, the Mediterranean-style estate occupies approximately 6.5 acres in the Hollywood Hills near Runyon Canyon.
