‘Wolverine’ director James Mangold sells his Tudor-style home in Brentwood
The Brittany Tudor-inspired home in the Mandeville Canyon area was designed by architect Gerard R. Coldcord.
Director and screenwriter James Mangold has sold his house in Brentwood’s Mandeville Canyon area for $3.15 million.
The Brittany Tudor-style home was built in 1964 and designed by local architect Gerard R. Coldcord. Known for building comfortable family homes in interpretations of a variety of architectural styles, he designed more than 300 houses in Southern California, and his work retains an ardent following.
Set on three-quarters of an acre dotted with mature trees, the house features half-timbering, hand-hewn beams and French doors. Dormer windows create nooks for desks or seating on the upper level, which contains three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and an office.
A foyer with a staircase, a living room with a fireplace, a dining room, a butler’s pantry, a kitchen with a breakfast area and a powder room are on the ground floor of the 2,620-square-foot house. There’s a guestroom above the detached two-car garage.
Mangold, who directed “The Wolverine” (2013) and “Walk the Line” (2005), will direct the upcoming Disney film “Captain Nemo.” His writing credits include the films “Walk the Line,” “Kate & Leopold” (2001) and “Girl, Interrupted” (1999). The 52-year-old produced the TV series “Zoo” (2005), “Vegas” (2012-13) and “Men in Trees” (2006-08).
He bought the property in 2006 for $2.275 million.
Bret Parsons of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage was the listing agent. Simon Salloom, also with Coldwell Banker, represented the buyer.
