Reese Witherspoon means winning a quick dollar – or rather nine million dollars – after turning a Los Angeles property she and her husband bought in 2020
Reese, 45, and talent agent Jim Toth, 51, bought the seven-bedroom, 10-bathroom house in the Tony Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles for $ 16 million in March 2020, just as the COVID-19 pandemic hit the United States.
Two years later, they renovated the mansion and offered it again for a whopping $ 25 million on Tuesday.
Located on a gated 3.1-acre plot, the house features a chef’s kitchen with a butler’s closet, a pool and spa, a limestone barbecue and an expensive smart home system.

According to Dirtthis particular house is one of the “most private properties on the West Side of LA”, located on a private back road and “lying deep in one of Brentwood’s most famous canyons” and behind a long alley that protects the privacy of the owner.
Privacy is clearly valued in Brentwood, where a rich list of celebrities and moguls own homes.
Stars who also own property in Brentwood – who would be the buyer’s new neighbors – include Gwyneth Paltrow, Harrison Ford, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Brady, LeBron James, James Cordon, Blake Griffin and Scooter Brown.
Behind the front gate, the alley ends with a round court that leads to the front door and a garage for three cars.
The house was built in 1993 and has an area of 10,343 square feet, but has been recently renovated and is “ready to move in”, according to the list.
The library is already painted in quite blue, with wallpapers popping up on bookshelves (pictured now)
It used to have dark wood floors and walls with wood paneling and it was like a man’s den (pictured when they bought it in 2020)
The couple also rebuilt the entrance by opening the staircase and adding a custom railing

Previously, there were wooden beams on the ceiling, which could be found throughout the house (pictured when they bought it in 2020)
The bathrooms are also modernly renovated (pictured now)
Inside, Reese and Jim made some clear changes by removing the brown wooden beams on the ceiling that had previously been in several of the rooms.
While many of the rooms used to be dark, with wood-paneled walls and brown and brown furniture, Reese lit up the space significantly.
The walls are now mostly white and light colors – including some expensive-looking wallpaper – which makes the rooms look bigger, while the absence of ceiling beams makes the rooms look taller.
She also added specially designed steel and brass railings to the quarter-turn staircase at the official entrance and installed black-and-white marble and limestone tiles.
The library has also been completely rebuilt. The dark brown wooden walls are gone, and in their place is blue paint. The bookshelves are lit with wallpaper and the floors are finished with lighter wood.
According to the list, the ground floor has a formal living room, two dust rooms, a dining room, a family room with a four-seater bar, a room that can be used as an office or media room, two bedrooms with private bathroom, and a kitchen for a cook with a butler closet. breakfast room.
In the backyard there is a blue tiled pool and a spa with a limestone barbecue and an eight-seater bar.
