<\/div>\n
    \n
  • Location:<\/span><\/b> Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, California.<\/span><\/span>\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • Transaction Amount:<\/b> Approximately $6.9 million<\/b> (a hairline below $7 million).<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Acquisition Date:<\/b> February 2022.<\/span><\/span>\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • Size:<\/b> The home spans <\/span>4,884 square feet<\/span><\/b> of living space with four bedrooms and five bathrooms.<\/span><\/span>\n

    <\/div>\n
    <\/div>\n

    Celebrity Lineage:<\/b> The property has a notable celebrity history, having previously belonged to Muse drummer <\/span>Dominic Howard<\/span><\/b> and, before him, Hollywood stars <\/span>Mila Kunis<\/span><\/b> and <\/span>Ashton Kutcher<\/span><\/b>.<\/span> Kendrick has since sold her former “starter home” in Beachwood Canyon, which she purchased for $1 million in 2012 and sold for approximately <\/span>$2.4 million<\/span><\/b> in 2025.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n
    <\/div>\n

    The Future Plan:<\/b> While Kendrick has not publicly specified the exact reason for the temporary nature of the home, her statement, \u201cThis is not my forever home,\u201d<\/b> is consistent with her recent career and personal pivot. Her focus is shifting dramatically toward new creative endeavors, including her directorial debut, and embracing new personal growth:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n
      \n
    • Renting Out:<\/b> In June 2023, Kendrick was documented <\/span>renting out a property<\/span><\/b> (likely her former Beachwood Canyon home, which she later sold), suggesting a strategic approach to real estate management while she determines her long-term residence.<\/span><\/span>\n
      <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    • Directorial Debut:<\/span><\/b> Kendrick recently directed and starred in the true-crime drama <\/span>Woman of the Hour<\/span><\/i><\/b> (2024) for Netflix, marking a bold career pivot.<\/span> This shift to a demanding dual role suggests a need for a flexible base that accommodates both her LA industry ties and her expanding creative horizons outside of traditional acting roles.<\/span>\n
