\n\tIt\u2019s officially a wrap for Rick Heinrichs, who has decided to part ways with his Los Angeles<\/a> home in a prime enclave of Brentwood<\/a> after a little more than two decades of ownership.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe acclaimed production designer and art director\u2014best known for partnering with Tim Burton on films such as The Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, Batman Returns, and Sleepy Hollow, for which he won an Oscar\u2014is asking $4.75 million for the Spanish-style spread he and his wife Dawn originally acquired in 2002 for $2 million. Lauren Ravitz of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties and Shelton Wilder of Christie\u2019s International Real Estate<\/a> share the listing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe stucco and terracotta-roof structure, perched atop a two-parcel knoll spanning nearly half an acre, was built in the late 1920s and offers five bedrooms and six baths in roughly 4,500 square feet.\u00a0The historic yet modernized living spaces span three levels and boast\u00a0a mix of hardwood and tile floors, vaulted wood-beam ceilings, plaster walls, glass doorknobs, vintage light fixtures, and interior doors crafted from solid wood.<\/p>\n

\n\tSteps lead up to a centrally based turret, where the front door opens into an entry foyer that flows to a\u00a0sunken living room sporting a hand-crafted stone fireplace, built-in shelving, and large casement windows overlooking the treetops stationed on both sides. Other highlights include\u00a0a coffered-ceiling dining room, which connects to an updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, custom glass-front cabinetry, top-tier stainless appliances, a breakfast nook, and access to an ocean-view front deck that\u2019s ideal for alfresco dining.<\/p>\n

\n\tThree upstairs bedrooms include a spacious primary suite, which has a separate sitting area and a spa-like bath within the turret that\u2019s decked out with dual vanities, a clawfoot soaking tub, and a glass-encased shower. Two more bedrooms downstairs have doors spilling out to a courtyard, while a wood-paneled media room anchors the lower level.<\/p>\n

\n\tRounding it all out are the fully hedged grounds, which offer several spots ideal for lounging and entertaining amid a fire pit, mature trees, and a rolling grassy lawn. There\u2019s also a detached three-car garage sitting street side, plus additional parking for up to eight vehicles.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Heinrichs have decided to sell because they have been working on and off in the U.K. since 1998 and are now relocating there full time. \u201cDaily sunsets, wonderful breezes, and especially the annual fireworks show are just a few reasons why it is difficult to sell,\u201d says Dawn Heinrichs. \u201cWe raised our kids here and loved watching them play in the backyard, which has plenty of hiding places and room to run.\u201d<\/p>\n
