Breathtaking: Jennifer Aniston has put her painstakingly renovated Beverly Hills mansion on the market for $42m; it features ocean to city views of Los Angeles


It is the home Jennifer Aniston spent years renovating, spending millions of dollars creating a luxurious hideaway that 'felt like a hug'.

But after deciding her sprawling Beverly Hills mansion was 'too much' for a single woman she has now put it on the market for $42million.

Newly released photos advertising the property show just what bidders can expect for their money - with shots showing stunning city views, a game room, Japanese spa, powder room, and office.

Aniston marked her 40th birthday in 2009 by moving into the decadent property, which also includes a Koi pond running through the entrance hall, a swimming pool with a cabana, five bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms.

Inside the $5.9m one bedroom penthouse apartment that single girl Jennifer Aniston may soon call home

By Daily Mail Reporter


With her relaxed attitude and perennially tanned complexion, Jennifer Aniston may appear to be a Californian girl at heart.

But it seems that the 42-year-old actress is thinking of swapping her laid-back Los Angeles lifestyle to head back to the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple.

The actress is on the verge of closing a real estate deal on a $5.9 million New York penthouse, according to E! Online.

The West Village abode is reportedly only one bedroom and one bathroom.

But Jennifer will have the spectacular city skyline to keep her engaged during her down time.

The 1,200-square foot penthouse is on the eighteenth floor, and has a 800-square foot terrace with all-angle views, which reach all the way to the Empire State Building.

Security within the building is fit for any A-lister intent on keeping their privacy, with the apartment block having it's very own doorman.

The residence has a new open plan kitchen, dining room, living room.

It features hardwood and poured concrete floors as well as four closets, huge casement windows and doors which open from every room to a beautifully planted roof terrace with the panoramic north, south, east and west views

The quiet home also has stunning high ceilings.

And if Jennifer wants to reminisce about her early acting days, she can always go for a stroll down the street.

The frontage of the famous Friends building is just down the road.

Room with a view: The 1,200-square foot penthouse is on the eighteenth floor, and has a 800-square foot terrace with all-angle views that reach all the way to the Empire State Building

Modern accents: The abode features poured concrete floors to give a warehouse style effect


While the show was all shot on the location in Los Angeles, all exterior shots were filmed in Manhattan.

Jennifer put her sprawling Beverly Hills on the market for $42 million in February.

She spent more than two years renovating that 9,000 square foot property after purchasing it in 2006 for $13.5 million.

She decided to sell the property after deciding it was 'too much' for her.

In the past, Jennifer has made it no secret that she was looking to return to New York.

Appearing on Good Morning America back in February, she told anchor Robin Roberts that she was in the market for a Manhattan home.

'I've been looking and looking and looking,' she said.

'I grew up here. I miss it. There is nothing like being in the city that is just the city of Everyman. It's all walks of life. I love that.'

Culinary dream: The residence has a new open plan kitchen with marble bench tops


Real Estate agents have however remained coy on the sale, telling E! Online: 'Reports of her buying a NY apartment come out about three to four times a year.

'Eventually they will be right as she wants a NY place but we won't be issuing a statement when or if that happens.'

Jennifer was born in Sherman Oaks, California in 1969.

After living for a year in her Greece, her family relocated to New York City where Jennifer attended the famed Rudolf Steiner School in New York, and then graduated from Manhattan's Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts.

She later worked in Off Broadway productions including For Dear Life and Dancing on Checker's Grave, whilst supporting herself with part-time jobs as a telemarketer, waitress, and bike messenger.

Eager to make it as an actress in Hollywood, in 1989, Aniston returned to Los Angeles and has since enjoyed a successful career there spanning over 20 years.

Slumber: The spacious bedroom has spectacular views and plenty of room to move


Currently Jennifer is directing a short film about the effects of cancer on a woman's relationship.

It will be one of five short movies based on the same theme, conceived as part of a series called Project Five.

Patricia Clarkson takes the lead role in the film, portraying the cancer victim.

Actress Demi Moore, 48, and singer Alicia Keys, 30, are also directing movies as part of the project.

Their films will be teamed up with Jennifer's to create one full-length feature to air later this year on US channel Lifetime.

Stunning: Jennifer can have the spectacular city skyline to keep her engaged during down time

Entertaining: The terrace has the capacity to host star-studded parties

Inside the home Kate Moss can't sell

By SIOBHAN MCFADYEN

Superstitious: Kate Moss believes her house is jinxed following a series of mishaps


It is the house that Kate Moss considers jinxed, after a series of mishaps that culminated in a £100,000 flood.

And now the supermodel is finding it near impossible to sell her sprawling London mansion – even at a £1 million loss.

She has slashed the asking price on the five-bedroom property to £7 million after receiving little interest from would-be buyers, but has still received no offers.

Kate, 37, has her eye on a lavish new home in Highgate, North London, which she wants to move into before her wedding to Jamie Hince, guitarist of The Kills, this summer. But her inability to shift the Maida Vale mansion is making that look increasingly unlikely.

The model has revamped the house in her own distinctive style since she bought it for £8 million in 2007, and it now boasts such features as a neon-lit party area and a jungle-themed living room, which might deter the more conservative buyer.

But a source close to upmarket estate agent Marcus Parfitt said that the problem might simply be that the Victorian house is not in a fashionable postcode.


Coming clean: An en-suite bathroom at the mansion in St John's Wood. But buyers could be put off because its location is not 'fashionable' enough


‘There have been no offers as yet,’ he said. ‘The problem with this one is that you’re not in one of the chosen roads in the area.

‘It’s a little bit on the periphery and from a snobbery point of view some people have not gone for it because it’s in the wrong district. As a house goes, though, it’s lovely. If it were a few streets away, it would be much more expensive.’

Kate – who bought the home following her split from Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty – has not had much luck with it.


Unconventional: Kate's open-plan dining area, with neon artwork in the background


Last year, the cursed property was flooded with sewage, causing damage that was estimated at £100,000 to furniture, her shoe collection and photographs by Mario Testino. But possibly even more desperate for a sale than Kate herself are her long-suffering neighbours, who have frequently complained about her party lifestyle.

They first began calling police and the local council over her alleged anti-social behaviour in 2007 – and have continued to complain ever since. Two years ago, police were called to her medieval-themed birthday party twice on the same night.

One source blamed neighbours for her difficulty in selling the property now, claiming: ‘Those who have expressed an interest have been put off because the neighbouring property is undergoing renovation works.


Marital home: Kate has her eye on a lavish new home which she wants to move into before her wedding to Jamie Hince this summer


‘Kate can’t wait to move. She hopes that someone will buy it so she that can finally move into the home she loves.

‘She wants to move to Highgate and have all of the renovation work done before the wedding.

‘She had hoped to swap contracts before now. She’s not had the best of times in this home and doesn’t get on well with her neighbours, so the idea of a fresh start, especially now she’s engaged, was appealing.

‘Unfortunately she’s not managed to create that much interest.’


Wild side: The supermodel's rock chick tastes are evident in the leopard-print furnishings and faux elephant-tusk table in the lounge


The decor in the house gives a glimpse into the model’s wilder side, with unusual leopard-print furnishings, complete with faux elephant-tusk coffee table, a two-person Jacuzzi and a well-stocked bar.

Artwork includes a picture of a man smoking what appears to be a cannabis joint. The home also includes a gym, a piped music system, large walled garden, a network of closed-circuit security cameras – and a terrace that has hosted some of Kate’s parties.

The house that Kate is hoping to move into in Highgate has nine bedrooms, plus two wine cellars and also staff accommodation. On the market for £8 million, it was once the home of the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

When she relocates, Kate will be near to her friends Jude Law and Sienna Miller, who are said to have ‘talked up the area’ to encourage the model to move.
