LOS ANGELES _ Another day, another real estate move for Johnny Depp.
The box-office star, who in summer reprised his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales," has divested himself of his fourth penthouse at the Eastern Columbia Building in downtown L.A. and is readying another property for auction this month.
On the sale side, Depp sold a three-bedroom, two-bathroom unit at the building in downtown's historic core for $1.82 million.
The 1,755-square-foot residence is the smallest of the five-unit collection that the actor put up for sale last year for a combined $12.78 million. The offbeat pad includes a great room that opens to a dining area and a kitchen with chrome appliances.
High ceilings, exposed brickwork and artful furniture are among the interior details. Oversized windows take in views of the downtown cityscape.
Depp purchased the penthouses, which combined to offer about 11,500 square feet of living space, in 2007, records show. The last unsold residence, a one-bedroom, two-bathroom unit, lists for $1.79 million.
Headed to the auction block Sept. 15 is the actor's equestrian estate in Kentucky.
The 41-acre property, sitting among hills outside of the Lexington area, includes a main house of 5,944 square feet, a guesthouse and three barns. There are more than a dozen stalls for horses, as well as 10 watered paddocks.
Previously listed for sale last year at $3.4 million, it will go to the highest bidder in an auction held by Halfhill Auction Group in collaboration with Gary Denton of Rector Hayden Realtors.
Depp, a Kentucky native, has history with the property: He purchased the farm in 1995 for $950,000, sold it in 2001 for $1 million and then bought it again four years later for $2 million.
