Exclusive | David Lynch’s dazzling LA compound has sold for $13M: ‘The property will be in very good hands’
The artistic sanctuary of David Lynch has a new owner.
The late American filmmaker’s 2.3-acre property in Hollywood Hills sold this week for $13 million, according to the property’s agent, Marc Silver of the Agency.
“The goal was never simply to just sell it, but to honor what Lynch created there over three decades and find the appropriate next steward,” Silver wrote in a Tuesday Instagram announcement. Silver represented both the buyer and the seller, according to the post.
Lynch’s surreal compound hit the market for $15 million in September, less than a year after his death at age 78.
Lynch, known for groundbreaking TV shows and films such as “Twin Peaks,” “Mulholland Drive” and “Blue Velvet,” died at his home in January 2025 following a battle with emphysema.
Lynch spent decades assembling his personal retreat. Today, the 2.3-acre estate encompasses seven structures spanning 11,000 square feet and 10 bedrooms.
The carefully crafted property reflected Lynch’s singular style and storied career. His brutalist production studio, where the director crafted “Mulholland Drive,” sits alongside a pink midcentury-modern residence.
The three-bedroom, 2,000-square-foot home was designed by Lloyd Wright, the son of Frank Lloyd Wright. Lynch later commissioned the grandson, Eric Lloyd Wright, to designed an adjoining pool and pool house.
Other spaces include cluttered workshops where Lynch practiced his myriad hobbies, including furniture-making and sculpture. Some of Lynch’s own metalwork designed can be found throughout the compound.
Die-hard Lynch fans will recognize his hilltop guest house, where the enigmatic director filmed a daily “Weather Report” series shared on his YouTube channel.
Silver wrote that his priority throughout marking the listing was to “respect the family’s wishes, protect the integrity of the estate, and align legacy with future ownership.”
“I’m pleased to say the buyer shares that vision,” his caption read. “The property will be in very good hands.”
