Jim Carrey is planning to sell his massive LA mansion
It recently came to light that the 61-year-old star is planning to sell his spacious 12,704-square-foot Los Angeles mansion, which he has owned for the last 30 years. The listing is currently held by Janelle Friedman of Sotheby's International Realty, according to PEOPLE. The gigantic property, which is listed for a price of $28.9 million, is equipped with a tennis court, a waterfall pool, and an outdoor platform for yoga and meditation. The mansion is also located at the heart of the upscale Brentwood neighborhood.
The news of the property sell-off comes after the Golden Globe-winning star declared earlier last year that he is planning to take a break from Hollywood. “I'm being fairly serious. It depends. If the angels bring some sort of script that's written in gold ink, that says to me that it's going to be really important for people to see, I might continue down the road. But I'm taking a break," he told Access Hollywood,
"I really like my quiet life, and I really love putting paint on canvas, and I really love my spiritual life, and I feel like — and this is something you might never hear another celebrity say as long as time exists – I have enough, I've done enough. I am enough,” he remarked.
