Anna Kendrick’s former Hollywood Hills ‘starter home’ has sold for nearly $2.4 million.
The Pitch Perfect actress’s property was on the market for less than a month before it sold for more than double the $1 million Kendrick paid for it in 2012, reports Realtor.
Kendrick’s real estate team were able to sell the 2,700-square-foot residence for the listing price of $2.395 million without having to lower the price tag — unlike nearby listings from Jessica Simpson, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez and Diane Keaton where prices were dramatically slashed earlier this year.
The Academy Award-nominated actress lived at the Beachwood Canyon residence between 2012 and 2022, and has since rented out the property for nearly $10,000 a month. The house was originally built in the 1930s.

Kendrick engaged in an extensive renovation process since moving out of the residence to add Hickory flooring and a modern-style marble kitchen island.
After moving out of Beachwood Canyon in 2022, Kendrick paid $7 million for a nearby Hollywood Hills mansion that sits atop a hill.
Kendrick opened up to Harper’s Bazaar about the importance of feeling comfortable in her home in October 2024. She admitted that she spent a lot of time on her comfy couch to avoid the trappings of fame.
“I deal with fame by being a couch potato of the highest order,” she joked. “But I also have always found that I can mostly move around without an issue just because, frankly, I’m shorter than most people realize. I’m so incognito when I have a baseball hat on – nobody really notices me, it’s a real luxury.”
She went on, “There are times where I’ve hung out with actors who are really tall, and I’m like, ‘I would go to you in a crowd anyway, because you’re this striking-looking person who is seven feet tall, and then I realize you’re that guy from that thing.’ Being recognized isn’t such a problem for me, I’m happy to report.”
Kendrick recently reunited with Blake Lively for the long-awaited sequel Another Simple Favor, which premiered on Prime Video on May 1. While there have been rumors of Kendrick and Lively feuding, Another Simple Favor director Paul Feig insisted there was no bad blood behind the scenes.
“Any controversy is good. I’m always like, ‘No press is bad press,’” Feig said on iHeartRadio’s “Amy & TJ” podcast in April. “But I just know these people, and I like these people so much that I work with that I want to defend them when somebody is just [telling] blatant lies. It makes me crazy.”
A source echoed those comments while exclusively speaking to Us Weekly in February by insisting there “aren’t any issues between Blake and Anna right now.”
