Austin Butler Buys Brad Pitt’s Los Feliz ‘Steel House’ for $5.2 Million

The move caps a summer of security concerns that led Pitt to a more fortified Hollywood Hills address.

Overview

  • The off-market sale closed last Friday after the home went into escrow last month, according to real estate sources.
  • The midcentury three-bedroom, two-bath property—known as The Steel House—features floor-to-ceiling glass, a pool, a built-in sauna and solar panels, and counts Aileen Getty and James Valentine among past owners.
  • LAPD said the house was ransacked in late June when suspects scaled a fence and entered through a front window, and police later reported arrests connected to the case.
  • Pitt paid about $5.5 million for the Los Feliz home in 2023, selling it at a slight loss.
  • Pitt has since acquired a $12 million Spanish-style estate in the Hollywood Hills, reported to have enhanced security and previously owned by The Killers guitarist Dave Keuning.
