Mark Ruffalo making a deal? Actor apparently has accepted an offer to sell his three-bedroom house in Los Angeles' Hollywood Hills, which has been listed for $1.685M
Actor Mark Ruffalo has accepted an offer to sell his has three-bedroom house in Los Angeles’ Hollywood Hills, which has been on the market for $1,685,000.
Again, we give major props to our friends over at the Real Estalker for sussing out who the celebrity is behind the trust that owns this property (the Piccolo Trust, and the trustee Stuart Gelwarg, for those fellow public-records fanatics out there). Your Mama broke the story on Wednesday of Ruffalo’s listing of the 2,957-square-foot house.
The offer still may fall through, although most of the time, offers don’t.
We should note that long before this house hit the market, it actually had been on our “to-do” list — i.e., it was one of literally dozens of Los Angeles-area houses owned by whimsically named (and likely celebrity-owned) trusts whose owners had remained a mystery to us. Had we bothered to do even a scintilla of digging (consulting our friend E.J.’s Movieland Directory, for example), we’d have unmasked Mark and his ownership. One of these days, we should just post the entire raw data — all the L.A.-area houses that we know of that are owned by trusts that we believe are controlled by celebrities — and just let our readers go to town on that. Would you all be interested in seeing something like that?
Back to Ruffalo (who is shown here with his wife Sunrise). Built in 1933, his East Coast traditional-style house has two and a half baths (a third full bath is in a guest unit), superb original detail, French doors throughout, two wood-burning fireplaces, central air, a sun room, a separate breakfast room, a living room with an exposed-beam ceiling, and a kitchen with granite counters, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Viking appliances, according to public records and listing information.
To answer a question that had vexed the Real Estalker on Wednesday, we can report that Ruffalo’s Piccolo Trust paid $1,650,000 for the house back in late 2004.
As Your Mama noted, the house was featured in the now-defunct Domino magazine in January 2009. Our own personal style maven (a physician by day, an interior designer by night) called the house’s interior “rustic,” “monochromatic” and “kind of spare.” She also described some of the furniture as being “a grandmother’s furniture” — a far cry from the kinds of adjectives Domino used (“relaxed Bohemian,” “adorable and eclectic”) in its write-up.
Where is Ruffalo off to? We don’t rightly know, but we’d assume that he and his large family (three kids) will stay in L.A. We will keep you posted on if this deal closes and if so, how much Ruffalo fetches for it. Stay tuned.

I associate him particularly from M.A.S.H., my beloved serial. I remember watching this serial with my brother. It must have been long long time ago.
Hopefully there are steel re-runs on TV, I miss no-one.
Being successful is one thing but getting rich off donations is another. If the money strictly came from books or from people saying I want to give money to you the person–not the ministry then that would be a better situation. This appears to have money rolling in from all corners

Hi Kimorah
Pls bring back the show, my twins cant waite to watch it, they are boys and six years old the thing is they have a krush on your daghters and they just want to watch it. I was also addicted to the show I just want to watch your fabulous life, that i wish I had, but I know it come with the hard work.

nice house
I should have been an actor!
I cant believe people are talking to them like they are a real family. ITS TELEVISION! Also, Gary Coleman and Dana Plato are dead and have been for a while. Conrad Bain is in a nursing home in California.
Where do you people live, Mars?!
Cute house,,kinda small though. Wouldn’t think celebs lived there at all
Very nice on the inside though,my parents considered buying it,but choose a nicer bigger house in the beverly hills area.
I have lived and worked in “Over Priced” Beverly Hills for a few years. A wise investment buy property miles away from Los Angeles,Calif ..then build a residence. With foreign investors from the Middle east,China and other non-speaking “English” countries. They fly over buy up real estate,,tear down then flip it for a profit.,,Hollywood isnt what it used to be when I first stepped into this former glitz city. Change is apparent ..but is this really the United States anymore or China? Saudi Arabia?…
I notice that I typed my email incorrectly, preciousdlitecleaning@yahoo.com
is this the “haunted” house she is going on about on celebrity ghost stories??? and re: is this us or china/saudi arabia… who cares. its hollywood. are those tits/hair/teeth you see on anyone walking around real or are they purchased?
PLEASE BRING THE SHOW BACK
PLEASE BRING THE SHOW BACK, I MISS ALL THE DOCTORS
Hey Roseanne,
I to was a funny lady. But my husbands MS kept me from traveling the circuit.
I would love to live there and help with the farm. I love what you are doing. You are so giving. You are my hero. Ps. If he won’t marry you get rid of the extra baggage.
I’m ready, more than ready to help on the Island. Give to those that need.
I have worked in the theatre at a college and love people. I’m now reitired and hate it. I’m so bored. I need to talk with you. My husband has had MS for 30 years. I am at the end of the so called rope.
I love the laughs I get when I do comedy. But I always have to go home to nothing. I feel chained to a pole. I hate it. It’s the hightest of highs to hear the people laugh. Something my husband will never understand. It’s a drug to me.
What do I do?
In the state of Illinois I’m a master gardner. The University of Illinois.
I love the earth. I love the smell of it. You are an angel. Giving everyone
the fruit of the earth. Jesus loves you.
I do use the F word just like you do. I can’t imagine making through some of the daily things given us without it
Beer helps.
ya ya ya

Hi Kris,
My name is Lois Grossman and love your shows, I watch them all the time. Congratulations on Kim’s wedding. After watching the show in Bora Bora and Robert said he did not know what he wanted to do.. Why doesn’t he start he own Clothing Line. He has a creative mind and could come in with a style of him own for Men. T-Shirts, Cargo Pants, Hiking Boots and the list goes on and on. The family loves Golf he could come up with a Golf shirt in his own style. And Suits, Suits by Robert Kardashian, people would live to see a clothing line by him.
Just an idea.

That explains it!!!!!!!!!!! Every year, Stone Barn Castle used to do a really cute Halloween scavenger hunt — we used to go every year when, all of a sudden, it closed down. I didn’t realize it was purchased by him…that really stinks!!!!!!
I live in the area near the house at 7327 Woodrow Wilson Drive. It burned to the ground in September (it was being rented by another actor). If you google “Woodrow Wildon Drive structure fire” you should find the video.
