Dakota Johnson Sells West Hollywood Mid-Century Modern Home for $5.9 Million

Actress Dakota Johnson closed the sale of her West Hollywood residence on June 17, 2026, fetching $5,924,372 for a 3‑bedroom, 3‑bath mid‑century modern house designed by Carl Maston.

The transaction followed a swift turnaround: the property hit the market on June 2, 2026, when Ruby Fay of Engel & Volkers Beverly Hills listed the 3,200‑square‑foot home. Just a week later, a contract was signed and the deal closed, leaving buyers in possession of a prized piece of California architecture.

Johnson first acquired the house in January 2016 for $3.55 million, a purchase she financed in part with earnings from the 2015 film "Fifty Shades of Grey." Built in 1947, the 0.2‑acre property sits in a quiet cul‑de‑sac in West Hollywood and showcases a wood‑framed structure, poured concrete floors, and expansive glass walls that open onto a backyard with a swimming pool.

After moving in, Johnson turned to Pierce & Ward to remodel the interior. The firm respected Maston’s original vision, keeping the signature glass walls and exposed beams while updating the flooring and adding a custom pink‑painted bathroom in the primary suite. The living area received concrete flooring, and the master bedroom now features a large walk‑in closet and a soaking tub that opens to the outdoors.

When the home was listed, the listing description called it a "masterclass in California modernism," noting how the design blurs indoor and outdoor spaces. In addition to the pool, the property offers a barbecue area, a fire pit, and multiple patios, including a raised perch overlooking the water.

Johnson had long spoken fondly of the house. In a 2020 Architectural Digest shoot, she referred to it as a "tree house" because of the surrounding trees and claimed she would never sell it. Yet the decision to list came after she purchased a Mediterranean‑style home in the Outpost Estates neighborhood of Los Angeles for $5.3 million, as reported by Star Magazine.

The final sale price was just a few dollars shy of the $6 million asking price. Public records confirm that the contract was signed within a week of the listing and that the transaction closed on June 17, 2026.

Johnson’s real‑estate portfolio has grown over the years. In addition to the West Hollywood home, she owned a Malibu mansion bought with former partner Chris Martin in 2020 for $12.5 million and sold a year later for $14.4 million. She has also invested in other properties through trusts managed by her accountant, Anthony Bonsignore.

The sale marks the end of Johnson’s decade‑long ownership of the West Hollywood property. No statement has been released explaining her motivation to sell, but the timing aligns with her recent acquisition of a new residence in Los Angeles.

With the transaction complete, the new owners will take possession of the property in the coming weeks. The sale underscores the sustained demand for high‑end, architecturally significant homes in the Los Angeles area.
