Judy Garland’s former Bel-Air home sold for $5.2m, later changed hands for $11.1m
The historic Bel-Air estate once owned by Judy Garland has been sold for $11.1 million, slightly below its listing price of $11.495 million. Built in 1938 by the renowned architect Wallace Neff, this traditional-style home showcases five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, set amid lush surroundings. Its ties to Garland's rise in Hollywood continue to intrigue potential buyers drawn to its storied past.
Judy Garland's former Bel-Air estate sold for $11.1 million in July 2024, more than double the $5.2 million it fetched in February 2011. The 1938 residence at 1231 Stone Canyon Road was designed by architect Wallace Neff for the actress and her family during her Hollywood rise to fame. Standing on 2.66 acres, the 5,513-square-foot home features five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a pool, and a writer's cottage.
The property retains its original architectural charm, including a grand foyer, hardwood floors, and traditional moldings. Later renovations updated the kitchen with modern appliances and a large marble island, while the breakfast area boasted a bay window. The main suite included a fireplace, high ceilings, and a dressing area.
Over the years, the property saw several owners, with the Chozen family holding it from 2011 until its recent sale. The home's connection to Garland, who lived there during her teen years and starred in The Wizard of Oz, remains its most significant selling point.
