In 2000, Roseanne Barr sold Samuel L. Jackson and his wife Latanya an 11,738-square-foot Beverly Park mansion for $8.35 M.

The residence has a main house, detached garage, and pool/guest house. The hillside pool and tennis court are likewise regulation-size.

Former LA Home of Samuel L. Jackson
While raising their daughter, Samuel L. Jackson and his wife owned a lovely 4,491-square-foot, 4-bedroom Tudor-style house in San Fernando Valley. They found the 1981 house while traveling around the valley.

In an Architectural Digest interview, Jackson’s wife said she spotted the rundown rural house and knew it was the one. How about Jackson?

Cecil N. Hayes, a designer they met in Chicago via Wesley Snipes, oversaw the move.

The home had a large family room with a fireplace, a country-style kitchen, formal dining room, sunroom, tennis court, 66-foot pool and spa, putting green, and 2,100-square-foot guest house with two bedrooms that Jackson converted into a screening room with green velvet walls and leather furniture.

The Jacksons lavished on beautifying their lovely home. Persian carpets, Arté de Mexico tables, Henredon furniture, Robert Allan damask, and Moroccan mother-of-pearl-inlaid mahogany tables are examples.

The walls were decorated with Jacob Lawrence’s The Builder and West African chiwaras and stoneware pots, giving it an Afrocentric feel.

“We wanтed our daughter to live in a homey environment,” Jackson told Architectural Digest in 2000.

In December 2014, they offered the house for $3.2 M and sold it in June 2015 for $2,812,500. The residence was renovated and sold again for $3.85M.
