Actor Heather Graham Parts Ways With Her Longtime Hollywood Compound for $2.85M
Tucked away below the iconic Hollywood sign, the Beachwood Canyon compound located at 2980 Belden Drive has had quite the list of notable names tied to it since 1927.
Once home to late American novelist Zane Grey, the 2,150-square-foot property is today known for serving as the longtime residence of actress Heather Graham, who bought the compound in 1998 for $880,000.
Aside from the carriage-house-style two-car garage, much of the 2,150-square-foot home is hidden from street view, creating a private oasis within the coveted area of Beachwood Canyon.
Now, two decades later, the Boogie Nights star is officially parting ways with the three-level Spanish-style home, placing it back on the market for $2,850,000. Featuring three bedrooms, five bathrooms, an eat-in chef's kitchen, as well as a striking wood-paneled library, the historic estate also comes with ample outdoor space, including tiers of gardens that lead to a grassy lawn, swimming pool, and built-in barbecue area.
Upon arrival, a tall rotunda entry with unique gold stenciling leads to the home's living areas.
"It's a very romantic and dreamy estate with magical views of the canyon," says Elizabeth Halsted, the agent listing the property. "It feels like a mini-estate. It's very private; it feels like it's being taken care of by the canyon."
Bright, airy, and spacious, the two-story living room is steeped in historic charm, featuring the home's original wooden mantel, beamed ceilings, and open brick staircase.
Throughout the years, the residence has been meticulously maintained, with much of its original detailing still in tact. Along with the striking rotunda entry, other remarkable interior aspects include arched doorways, beamed ceilings, tile finishes, a two-story living room, and bright bursts of color spread across all three floors.

Mint-green cabinets contrast with the textured hardwoods in the kitchen, complete with top-of-the-line appliances. Patterned tiles lining the backsplash and wall infuse the space with an artistic flair.
Sandwiched between the main living room and kitchen is a light-filled dining area with a large, round table that can comfortably accommodate eight.
A cozy sitting room toward the back of the home frames spectacular views of the surrounding canyons while creating an inviting place to relax on the plush sectional.
Walls of windows usher ample natural light throughout the home's open, three-level interior.

A pristine swimming pool awaits further down the sloping grounds, with a pavilion and fire pit just steps away. An abundant vegetable garden is also located on the secluded lot.
2980 Belden Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90068 is currently listed for $2,850,000 by Elizabeth Halsted of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties.
