Dec. 08--"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" producer Kathleen Kennedy and her husband, film producer Frank Marshall, have sold their gated compound in Brentwood for $8.6 million.
The single-story hacienda, built in 1955, is set on more than half an acre and features a fountain entry off a circular driveway. The living and dining rooms, both with fireplaces, open to a courtyard with another fireplace, a fountain and gardens.
The nearly 6,000 square feet of living space includes five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. The master suite has fireplaces in the main room, the sitting room and in the bathroom. Views take in the patio, lawn, trees and swimming pool.
A detached guesthouse/gym with a bathroom sits near the pool.
The couple bought the property in 2013 for $7.5 million.
Stanley Richman, formerly with Coldwell Banker but now with Compass, was the listing agent. Juliette Hohnen of Douglas Elliman represented the buyer.
Kennedy, 62, is known for "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" and the "Jurassic Park" films. She is working on several "Star Wars" installments.
Marshall, 69, has produced such blockbusters as "The Sixth Sense," "Back to the Future" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark." He is working on sequels to the "Indiana Jones," "Bourne" and "Jurassic Park" film series.
Kennedy, Marshall and filmmaker Steven Spielberg founded Amblin Entertainment.
Earlier this year the couple purchased the Brentwood home of late "Golden Girls" star Bea Arthur for $14.925 million.
