Share

Peter Facinelli, who plays doctors in the “Twilight” films and the “Nurse Jackie” television series, and his ex-wife, actress Jennie Garth, have sold their home in Toluca Lake for $3.99 million. The buyer is “The Big Bang Theory” co-creator Bill Prady.

The Paul Williams-designed traditional house, built in 1937, has a long Hollywood history. It was once the home of country singer and actor Tex Ritter and the childhood home of his son, the late actor John Ritter. Enlarged since Williams’ day and renovated, the house has six bedrooms, eight bathrooms and 8,416 square feet of living space.

There are formal living and dining rooms, a bar room, a game room, a kitchen fireplace, dual master bedroom suites, a gym, a media room and two offices.

The gated, nearly half-acre property contains a five-car garage, an outdoor kitchen and a swimming pool.

Facinelli, 39, has played “vegan” vampire and Cullen family leader Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the “Twilight” movie series since 2008. He plays good-looking Dr. Fitch Cooper on “Nurse Jackie” (2009-present).

Garth, 41, starred on “Beverly Hills, 90210” (1990-2000) and reprised her role on “90210” (2008-10). She also starred on “What I Like About You” (2002-06) and will star in the TV movie “Home Again,” to air this fall.

Prady, 53, is also an executive producer for “The Big Bang Theory,” which started in 2007.

Facinelli and Garth purchased the home in 2003 for $1.35 million, according to public records.

The property was purchased in 2010 for $7 million, public records show.

Renner, 42, was nominated for an Oscar for his work in “The Hurt Locker” (2008) and “The Town” (2010). He starred in “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol” (2011), “The Avengers” (2012) and “The Bourne Legacy” (2012). His work this year includes “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters.”

The gated estate of less than an acre features a lagoon pool and waterfall spa. The 9,076 square feet of living space includes a two-story fireplace, a media room, a loft-like gym, five bedrooms and eight bathrooms.

An arson fire at the home in 1987 spared Petty’s basement studio, where he stored his guitars and master recordings, according to Los Angeles Times reports at the time.

Petty, 62, is the frontman for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee continues to tour with the Heartbreakers, a group formed in 1976.

Nancy Sanborn of Prudential California Realty’s Beverly Hills office and Andrew Manning of the Sherman Oaks office are the listing agents.
