Why Vin Diesel was forced to sell his Hollywood Hills home after 16 years

Vin Diesel is officially changing the course of its real estate game. After 16 years of calling his Hollywood Hills home his own, the Fast and the Furious star has decided to sell the two-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment for $1.4 million. Trulia broke the news, and this was not his first attempt. In 2013, he put the property up for sale. $1.3 million; before that he rented it out for a substantial amount US$5800 per month. But now, with three children and a growing family, Diesel is ready to move on to the next chapter – away from this bachelor pad.

Bought in 2000 for only US$562,500Built in 1957, this mid-century gem wasn’t exactly a mansion, but had all the charm of an old-school Los Angeles retreat. Tucked away behind an enclosed brick courtyard, the house boasted a cozy yet modern ambience, lush landscaping and a pavilion perfect for meditation – who knew Diesel was into Zen? Inside, the private master bedroom exudes sophistication, with beamed ceilings, French doors and ample closet space, perfect for those accustomed to a fast-paced lifestyle.

A nod to classic Southern California charm, the kitchen featured Mexican tiles and flowed seamlessly into the spacious dining and living room. If there was a spirit in this house, it would be dedicated to light entertainment. Diesel’s lair, overlooking a private patio, was the perfect spot for a casual get-together or, we’re guessing, several Fast and Furious scheduling sessions. The sun-drenched pool and spa added a touch of luxury, creating an oasis in the hills that could sell as quickly as a car chase in The Fast and the Furious.

For Diesel, it wasn’t just about selling the house; it was a full circle moment. It was his first real foray into the Hollywood Hills, and it helped set the tone for his epic career. And as it moves on, the house is sure to have a new owner—someone who wants to soak up the California sun and live out their mid-century dream. With the house listed as just shy $1.4 millionIt’s a reasonable increase over its original asking price, but nothing too wild for the charm and privacy this place offers.

And some more Hollywood wit: Vin’s co-star in The Fast and the Furious Jordana Brewster had a house in West Hollywood that previously belonged to Ellen DeGeneres. It’s the magic of Hollywood’s six-degree divide that makes you realize how small this city is.

But why this step? It looks like Diesel is more than ready to leave his bachelor pad. With a growing family and a need for more space, it’s only natural that he’d hand over the keys to someone new. The house is sure to sell fast and furious, and who knows? Perhaps this will inspire the creation of the next action-packed films. We’ll have to wait and see his next move – both in real estate and on screen.
