She’s got posts on both coasts

Supermodel-actress Tyra Banks has purchased a Beverly Hills-area home for close to its asking price of $3.1 million.

The Mediterranean-style house, built in the ‘20s, was recently refurbished. It has four bedrooms and 5 1/2 bathrooms in about 5,000 square feet. Banks may expand it.

The two-story house, on a park-like lawn, also has a living room with vaulted ceilings, a sunroom, a newly equipped kitchen, a media room and a formal dining room. There are city and ocean views.

Banks, 30, was born in Los Angeles and has owned other homes in the area, although she has maintained a primary residence in Florida. The supermodel has appeared in several movies, costarring in “Halloween: Resurrection” (2002). She created the idea for UPN’s reality series “America’s Next Top Model,” which she hosts, and she is about to release her first album as a singer.

Ernest Carswell of Coldwell Banker, Beverly Hills North, had the listing, and Mary Brill of the same firm’s Beverly Hills East office represented Banks.

Pfeiffer, Kelley head to the ranch

Actress Michelle Pfeiffer and writer-producer David E. Kelley are planning to put their Brentwood compound on the market at $49 million now that school is out for their two children.

The couple, married since 1993, are moving to a ranch they bought farther north in California, in an area described as horse country. They want a change in lifestyle.

To create the compound, they bought a two-acre parcel, with a six-bedroom, traditional-style home designed by architect Paul Williams, in June 2000 for $15 million. They purchased the acre-plus property next door in September 2002 for $7 million.

The 7,500-square-foot house, built in the 1940s for a Kansas City oilman, underwent a major restoration after Pfeiffer and Kelley bought it.

Pfeiffer, 46, has several films in development, including “Chasing Montana,” to be written by Kelley, and “O’Keeffe,” about artist Georgia O’Keeffe. She costarred in “I Am Sam” (2002).

Kelley, 48, has created and produced such Emmy-winning TV series as “Picket Fences,” “Ally McBeal,” “Boston Public” and “The Practice.”

‘Seinfeld’ home changes owner

Jerry Seinfeld’s former Hollywood Hills home has been sold for about $5.2 million. When he returned to live in New York City, the comedian sold the house in 1998 for $3.2 million.

The house was most recently sold by Mike Jeffries of Milkshake Films in London. The buyer is a businessman from San Francisco.

Alec Berg, a writer and executive producer of “Seinfeld,” also owned the home at one time. The house was built in 1967 by the late actor George Montgomery, ex-husband of the late singer-actress, talk-show host Dinah Shore. The house was totally refurbished before Seinfeld bought it in 1992.

It has three bedrooms and five bathrooms in almost 6,000 square feet. Contemporary in style, the house, behind gates on its own promontory, has glass walls, an updated kitchen, a large office, a screening room, a pool, a gym and city views.
