Producers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall are the buyers of the Brentwood home of late “Golden Girls” star Bea Arthur. The Spanish-style house recently sold for $14.925 million.

The Cliff May-designed house was remodeled and expanded to 6,000 square feet since it was built in the 1920s. May, usually associated with California Ranch-style designs, was known for his indoor-outdoor approach to residential architecture.

A two-story stone-clad entry marks the front of the house. Inside, a vaulted beamed ceiling, skylights and a fireplace are among the living room’s details. The kitchen flows into a great room with another fireplace.

Other living spaces include a formal dining room, a bar, an art studio, a den, a gym, a library/study, a media room, dual offices, five bedrooms, five full bathrooms and a powder room.

The four acres of grounds include such amenities as a swimming pool with a spa, trails and a tennis court. Mature oaks and sycamore trees dot the grounds.
