The Los Angeles dream home that legendary Hollywood actor Diane Keaton spent nearly a decade designing and transforming has found a buyer, nine months after the Annie Hall star’s death. The property, which was most recently listed for $22.9 million, is now under a contingent offer, meaning a buyer has been found and the sale is moving toward closing.Keaton, who died in October 2025 at the age of 79, bought the Sullivan Canyon property for $4.7 million in 2011 and spent eight years turning it into her dream residence.

Unlike many of the historic homes she bought, renovated and later sold throughout her career, Keaton once admitted this was the first property she truly considered her forever home.Speaking about the house while promoting The House That Pinterest Built, the Oscar-winning actor said she had always struggled to find a home where she wanted to “land and stay.”“Something’s right, because I love it,” she said, describing the Sullivan Canyon residence as her “dream home.”Keaton also revealed that her lifelong desire to live in a brick house stemmed from her childhood love of The Three Little Pigs, a story her mother frequently read to her.

Inspired by New York and filled with personal touches

Although located in Los Angeles, much of the home’s design was inspired by Keaton’s former New York apartment in a 1930s Beaux-Arts building, where she first developed her passion for architecture.The residence combines reclaimed Chicago bricks, soaring wooden beams, skylit interiors and vintage architectural elements with modern design features. Among its standout spaces is a circular room inscribed with lines from Gerald Stern’s poem Lucky Life, while another staircase bears the poignant quote: “Look, we don’t have that much time.”The home also features expansive built-in bookshelves filled with model houses and collectibles, a dramatic white brick fireplace, and an office designed like a real-life Pinterest mood board, complete with magazine clippings, artwork and photographs covering an entire wall.

Sale likely to be overseen by her children

Property records show the estate remains registered to a trust under Keaton’s birth name, Diane Hall. The sale is expected to be managed by her adopted children, daughter Dexter and son Duke, who are the primary beneficiaries of her estate.For Keaton, the Sullivan Canyon home represented far more than another renovation project, it was the culmination of decades spent blending architecture, storytelling and personal expression into spaces she believed could truly feel like home.
