The former Beverly Hills estate of Hollywood legend James Cagney has resurfaced on the market with a substantially reduced asking price of $29.995 million. The sprawling five-acre property, nestled beneath Franklin Canyon, once boasted a $38.5 million price tag but has been restored to its original grandeur while incorporating modern amenities.
Cagney, who gained fame for his tough-guy film roles in the 1930s, constructed the estate in the 1930s as a private retreat. The main villa, spanning 10,778 square feet, retains its historic charm with exposed trussed-beam ceilings, leaded glass, and restored fireplaces. The property also includes a guest residence, carriage house, and a studio Cagney once used as an art studio, offering a unique glimpse into his off-screen life.
Beyond its luxurious features, the estate's layout, including tennis, pickleball, basketball courts, a swimming pool, and a spa, provides ample space for leisure and entertainment. Set in a canyon environment surrounded by mature greenery, the property balances seclusion with proximity to Beverly Hills. Its blend of historic details and contemporary comforts makes it a rare find for those seeking a piece of Hollywood history.
