The 7,700‑sq‑ft, 7‑bedroom mansion in Sandy Springs, Georgia, which Josh Brolin and wife Kathryn had bought in 2020 for $3.25 million, closed at $4 million after a $750,000 price cut in June 2024.
The property first hit the market on April 17, 2024, then vanished, only to reappear on June 8 with a $249,000 reduction that brought its asking price to $4.75 million. The final sale price was another $750,000 lower, leaving the home $999,000 below its original $4.999 million listing.
Brolin, who has spoken publicly about his mixed feelings toward the Sandy Springs neighborhood, cited a desire to stay closer to his film projects in the South and the lack of “grit” in the area as reasons for selling. He added that the city’s diversity and proximity to downtown were positives, but the estate itself had become a logistical burden.
The home, designed by Pierce and Ward, boasts castle‑like features: 10‑foot ceilings, crown moulding, a formal dining room, a purple sitting room, and a 1.48‑acre lot with a lagoon‑style pool. Its basement houses a theater, gym and guest bedroom, while the ground‑floor primary suite offers cathedral ceilings and a soaking tub.
The Brolins’ move back to California is further evidenced by their February 2024 purchase of a 7.1 million‑dollar farmhouse in Santa Barbara. Their sale of the Georgia estate signals the end of a multi‑year effort to rent the property out at $35,000 a month, a price that failed to attract tenants. The property will now be listed under a new owner, likely to be marketed for sale or high‑end rental in the coming months.
