“Kim Basinger’s L.A. Confidential Home”
KIM BASINGER'S LOS ANGELES CONFIDENTIAL HOME - A part of Hollywood film history, the L.A. Confidential movie home for Academy Award-winner Kim Basinger in her role as high-class, call-girl Lynn Bracken is for sale.

Now after almost two years of new updating and expansion, it is for sale priced at $7.495 million.
Historically known as the John C. Leavitt House, the home was originally designed by silent-film-actor-and-
Measuring in at 5,000 square feet, the home sits on a large corner lot and has four bedrooms and five baths. The large arched-wall openings, which were heavily draped in the film, bring brightness to the rooms while the wrought-iron staircase, stucco fireplace, and two-story living room and formal dining room with French doors that open to the grounds fit perfectly with Basinger’s Veronica Lake look-alike character in the film. The brightly transformed chef’s kitchen with butler’s pantry and service kitchen encourages entertaining. The kitchen and family room overlook the grounds with a pool, two-story guest house, and bocce ball court, two fireplaces, putting green and inviting outdoor dining area. Throughout the house, large windows and French doors allow for lots of California sunshine inside and view across the attractive grounds.
L.A. Confidential, starring Kim Basinger as call-girl Lynn Bracken, was nominated for nine Academy Awards winning Best Supporting Actress for Basinger and Best Adapted Screenplay. Kim’s home in the film is for sale at $7.495 million. The listing agents are Diana Knox, Jake Valente, and Aaron Kirman of Aaron Kirman Group, Compass Realty, Los Angeles.
