Judy Garland’s former Bel-Air home has changed hands for $11.1 million, more than a decade after it sold for $5.2 million. The 1938 estate at 1231 Stone Canyon Road was listed for $11.495 million in March 2024 before selling in July, according to property records and reports from The Real Deal, Realtor.com and Architectural Digest. The house carries a particularly strong connection to Garland’s early Hollywood years. She was 16 when the residence was commissioned, and 1938 was also the year she was cast as Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz. Designed by celebrated architect Wallace Neff, the traditional-style home was created for Garland and her family and remains one of the properties associated with the actress’s rise to stardom.Set on roughly 2.66 acres, the estate combines the scale of an old Hollywood property with updates made by later owners.
