Peeking at Brad and Jen

In this house, great happiness was supposed to take place, but that hasn't really been the case. Brad Pitt and Jennifer bought this house in 2001 after their wedding and threw themselves into the renovation. They built (well, had built) a bar with stones on the floor that were flown in from a French castle. The marble, heated floor is also one of their ideas, just like the tennis court. Brad and Jen were happy with the two different entrances to the property, allowing you to literally lead curious types around the garden. I often wonder who all sat at that dining table that had space for 22 people. And what movies did they watch in the viewing room? I also wonder what you do with 13 baths when you have 5 bathrooms. My grandpa always said, ‘You can only eat one steak a day,’ so how many baths do you want? But oh well, detail.

Brad and Jen supposedly bought the house for 13.5 million and sold it for 26 million. It has now been sold again after living there for fourteen years. For 32 million now, more than double what Brad and Jennifer paid for it. But well, that was also before those heated marble tiles and that cozy bar. I hope the new residents live there longer and happier than the Pitts.
