Moving in with Julianne? Ryan Seacrest lowers the asking price of his Hollywood Hills estate to $11.9 million
|
He just signed a two-year contract with NBC and renewed his American Idol contract for another two years as host, and now Ryan Seacrest is ready to upgrade to a new home.
The hardest working man in Hollywood has just lowered the price of his Hollywood Hills estate, which he affectionately dubbed 'Casa di Pace' (House of Peace), from $14.9 million last year to $11.9 million.
Perhaps the 37-year-old is now eager to move in with his beautiful girlfriend of two years, Dancing with the Stars star Julianne Hough.

'I looked for the right property for years,' Seacrest told Architecture Digest in 2008.
'It was really tricky to find something that had the convenience factor—I wanted to be at work in 10 minutes—and at the same time the escape factor. In my head I was seeing the sort of villa you might see in Spain or Italy. The day I saw the house was the day I made an offer.'

Located atop of Nichols Canyon behind wrought iron gates, the stately 10,000-square-foot Mediterranean, built in 1974, sits behind wrought-iron gates on nearly an acre of hilltop with canyon and city views.
Known as one of the crown jewels of the Hollywood Hills, the six-bedroom mansion sits on an acre and boasts 6.5 bathrooms, a screening room, a living room with 17-foot beamed ceilings, peaceful gardens, detached garage, pool, spa, championship tennis court, library, billiards room, bar, and a wine cellar.
Ryan originally bought the property from two-time Academy Award-winning filmmaker and actor Kevin Costner in 2006 for a little less than his selling price at $11.5 million.
Costner bought the house from Oscar-winning actor Richard Dreyfuss in 1995 for $2.7 million.

The show host (and Keeping Up With The Kardashians producer) wanted the house to have a 'feeling of timelessness and peace,' so he hired famed interior designer Jeff Andrews to remodel it.
'Ryan wanted the house to be warm and inviting, but he also wanted a certain sense of drama,' Andrews told Architecture Digest.
'We decided to play up some of the ethnic accents throughout the house and bring in a little more Old Hollywood glamour. He’s a big traveler, and we wanted the place to almost feel like it could be a resort anywhere in the world.'

Luxury: Seacrest's favorite rooms are the Indonesian-flavored master bath and the state-of-the-art gym with hotel-style TV monitors attached to the treadmills
Among the renovations was transforming the guesthouse into a funky club room, inspired by the Hôtel Costes in Paris, and the downstairs rec room became a 4,500-bottle wine cellar and tasting room.
