A buyer has gone under contract for $22.9 million on Diane Keaton's Brentwood estate, ending more than a year of on-and-off listings and repeated price cuts. The property was marked active under contract in late July 2026, after first appearing on the market in March 2025 and being relisted following Keaton's death in October 2025, Realtor.com shows. Keaton bought the Sullivan Canyon parcel in 2011 for $4.7 million and spent eight years renovating the compound, which includes a main residence of more than 9,000 square feet and a separate guest house. The accepted offer moves the file toward escrow while the listing may still accept backup bids.
The accepted offer shifts a long, public sale process toward settlement, after an initial list price and several reductions. Realtor.com noted the status change to active under contract in late July 2026, which means an offer has been accepted even though the seller may still entertain backup bids.
Keaton bought the Sullivan Canyon parcel on Riviera Ranch Road in 2011 for $4.7 million and spent eight years renovating the compound, a project she described in her 2017 book The House That Pinterest Built. The main residence exceeds 9,000 square feet and sits on about a 28,000-square-foot lot. The compound includes a separate guest house, a double-gated motor court and mature landscaping that gives the property privacy, local reporting and Realtor.com describe.
The house became widely followed because Keaton treated the renovation as a public design project. She collected reclaimed architectural elements, vintage fixtures and brickwork over many years, and those materials are woven through the home.
That preservationist approach helped give the property a popular nickname and a social-media-driven profile that broadened its pool of high-end buyers.
The marketing history is straightforward. The property first went public in March 2025 at roughly $29 million, then underwent an early price cut.
The listing was withdrawn shortly before Keaton died in October 2025 and then relisted that autumn at about $26.9 million. This most recent asking price was reduced to $22.9 million, the figure shown on the active under contract listing.
The listing was carried by Compass agent Josh Flagg. Neither Realtor.com nor the listing agent has disclosed the buyer's identity or a final closed sale price.
Local reporting and the listing detail a property that blends restored architectural salvage with modern living spaces, set in the equestrian-adjacent Sullivan Canyon enclave of Brentwood. For buyers at this level, privacy and provenance are part of the value proposition; Keaton's long renovation and public account of the work supplied both.
