At 50, Angelina Jolie is preparing for a new season of life. With her youngest children nearing adulthood, the actress and humanitarian is stepping away from Los Angeles and the spotlight of Hollywood. She has listed her Los Feliz estate — purchased in 2017 for $24.5 million — signaling her desire for a quieter existence.
A House with History
The six-bedroom mansion, built in 1913 and once owned by legendary filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille, became a refuge for Jolie during a period of transition. Surrounded by two acres of gardens, with a pool and sweeping views of the Griffith Observatory, the estate was more than a home — it was a sanctuary.
In interviews, Jolie described it as a “fortunate place,” where her children found stability and where friends displaced by California wildfires found shelter. Its proximity — just five minutes from Brad Pitt’s residence — also made co-parenting their six children smoother during difficult years.
Turning the Page
Now, with her divorce finalized in December 2024 and twins Knox and Vivienne nearing 18, Jolie is ready to move on. The sale of the Los Feliz home marks both an ending and a beginning: a farewell to the city that defined much of her career, and a step toward a new life abroad.
Seeking Peace Beyond Hollywood
Jolie has long spoken of her desire to live outside the U.S. — in search of privacy, balance, and a gentler pace than Los Angeles affords. Cambodia, where she has deep cultural and philanthropic ties, is expected to be central to her next chapter.
Even as she transitions, Jolie will continue her international work, traveling frequently and staying close to her children. For her, the shift is not retreat but renewal — a conscious embrace of freedom beyond Hollywood’s glare.
A Life Redefined
For decades, Angelina Jolie’s story has been told through the lens of her films, her relationships, and her fame. At 50, she appears determined to write a different kind of story — one rooted less in celebrity and more in peace, purpose, and presence.
