Leading British actor Gary Oldman has splashed out almost $3m on a new house in Los Feliz. According to leading local real estate blog The Real Estalker, the Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy gar recently purchased the new 3,168-foot property for a cool $2,869,000. Built in 1922 the house is a two-storey Southern Plantation-inspired manse that sits on half an acre of land and features a massive pool in the backyard.

The main property boasts of three bedrooms and four bathrooms, with an additional bedroom and bathroom above a detached car garage. A spacious living room spans the length of the bottom floor and features a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The room also has a series of French doors on two walls that reach almost to the ceiling.

The house, that any A-list star would die for, has chic dark wood flooring throughout leading to a stylish state of the art kitchen decked out with every gadget one could possibly need, including two stainless steel sinks, and high-grade commercial-style appliances. It has stone tile flooring, cabinets with grey-veined white marble, multi-paned windows. A ‘breakfast room’ comes off the kitchen, opening out on to a blue-stoned terrace.

Gary, who was nominated for Best Actor at last Sunday’s Oscars ceremony for his performance as MI6 agent George Smiley, wound up losing out to The Artist’s Jean Dujardin, but many actors, including Daniel Radcliffe and Ryan Gosling, have said he is a huge inspiration to them.

Some of Oldman’s new neighbours include Twilight star Robert Pattinson, Emmy-winning actress Kirstie Alley and comedian Jamie Kennedy.

I guess this means Gary might be throwing a few star-studded parties at his fantastic new home this summer… Er, if so Gary, don’t forget to put me the guest list!
