The former Los Angeles home of David Spade is back on the market for $32.5 million, or about 66% more than what the comic actor sold the property for earlier this year—$19.5 million.
Spade, who this year reprised his voice role of the Invisible Man in Hotel Transylvania: Tranformania, listed the property in January 2022 for just under $20 million and had an offer in hand after less than a week on the market, according to the Los Angeles Times. Records show the actor-comedian bought the home in 2001 for roughly $4 million.
Located near the Trousdale Estates section of Beverly Hills, the streamlined midcentury modern home is situated on a roomy three-quarter-acre lot that centers on some of the best views in Los Angeles, according to listing agent Stuart Vetterick with Beverly Hills-based brokerage Hilton & Hyland.
Views extend to Century City and the ocean.

“This is a unique opportunity for someone to purchase an irreplaceable asset. Where else in Trousdale could you find a tennis court property with views of Century City and the ocean together in one,” Vetterick shares.
