Angelina Jolie is preparing for a significant life change—selling her historic Los Angeles estate and relocating overseas.
According to a source who spoke with PEOPLE, the 50-year-old Maria star “plans to put the house up for sale” and is actively considering destinations abroad.
The insider noted that Jolie “never wanted to live in L.A. full time” but remained because of her custody arrangement with ex-husband Brad Pitt, 61.

Custody Arrangements Delayed Her Move
Jolie and Pitt finalized their divorce settlement in December 2024 after an eight-year legal battle. The former couple share six children: Maddox, 24, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and 17-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
The source revealed that Jolie intends to move “as soon as Knox and Viv turn 18 next year,” adding, “She’s eyeing several locations abroad. She’ll be very happy when she’s able to leave Los Angeles.”
A Hollywood Landmark with a Rich History
Jolie’s current home, which she purchased in 2017 for $24.5 million, is an 11,000-square-foot architectural treasure dating back to 1913. The estate includes six bedrooms, ten bathrooms, and sprawling landscaped grounds.
Its history traces back to legendary filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille, who bought it in 1916 for less than $28,000. At the time, it sat next to a property owned by Charlie Chaplin. When Chaplin later moved away, DeMille acquired the neighboring estate and merged the two, creating one of Hollywood’s most iconic properties.
