Share

Laraine Newman, the “Saturday Night Live” veteran, has sold her longtime home in Westwood for $2.35 million.

Perched on a rise, the Spanish-style house retains its 1930s roots. Arched doorways, period fixtures and tilework infuse the 3,108-square-foot home with character.

The living room features a fireplace and a television that retracts into the floor. The dining room opens to a balcony. The kitchen has a center island, stainless-steel appliances and granite counters. A family room sits off the kitchen.

There’s a master bedroom with an office for a total of four bedrooms and three bathrooms.

A drought-tolerant yard, a back patio and a swimming pool with a waterfall and spa complete the grounds.

Newman, 64, is a comedian and voice actress. She was on the original “SNL” for five years starting in 1975 and originated the role of alien Connie Conehead. Her recent voice work includes last year’s animated series “Dawn of the Croods” and “The Adventures of Puss in Boots.”

She bought the property in 1979 for $279,000, public records show.

Hayward Hamrick of Coldwell Banker was the listing agent. Scott Tamkin of Compass represented the buyer.
