Hmmm. New Hampshire’s own Adam Sandler, raised in Manchester, bought the last home you’d expect an A-List celebrity swimming in money to buy.
According to Dirt, it’s quite extensive, as Adam has spent millions of dollars buying homes in prime areas of Massachusetts and Florida. His newest home is in the Los Angeles area enclave of Pacific Palisades, at 5415 Albright Street. The property is listed by Katie Landrum with Compass Pacific Palisades, and it’s the last home you’d expect a multi-millionaire celebrity to buy.
And it’s still off the market, so he’s not flipping it anytime soon.
Clearly, it’s not some palatial Hollywood home, as it only cost him a mere $4.1 million to buy this 1,840-square-foot home. Below, I’ve attached photos of the ranch-style house.
So do you think he plans to live in this simple, nondescript three-bed, two-bath home? Chances are, no. Dirt says that Adam and his wife Jackie have spent around $40 million on real estate in the Los Angeles area alone, so this is most likely a remodel or teardown investment rather than their new humble abode. Dirt adds that their main residence in this Pacific Palisades neighborhood is a palatial estate once owned by Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.
Meanwhile, what makes this latest real estate portfolio acquisition with stunning hardwood floors and an updated kitchen and bath is the listing. It says the new owner can “move right in or reimagine and develop your dream home.” That’s because the home includes plans for a 7,600-square-foot, two-story house with a basement already approved for re-development in this exclusive, high-priced area of Los Angeles.
Who knows? Maybe the 10,000-square-foot property is the new home for the Sandlers after a new custom home is built. Or, maybe Adam bought it for his mom so that she can have a place down the street?
If you’d like to have a tour of this charming traditional home, then here you go:

It’s a 3-bed, 2-bath, 1840 square foot home and most likely they bought it as an investment since Dirt says Adam and his wife have an extensive real estate portfolio.

But whether this adorable, non-descript entrance stays is another story even though it’s so well maintained and described as ready to move in in the listing.

Gorgeous floors and fire place with incredible windows is a dream for anyone, however this home is also considered a teardown in the exclusive Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles where luxury reigns.

Even with marble countertops and stainless steel appliances, this home’s listing includes plans for a 7,600-square-foot, two-story house with a basement

The light is insane so if Adam decides to keep some of the home in tact, I’m sure the windows play a huge part in that.

Love this shape and again, what beautiful lighting. This home clearly sits on the perfect cul-de-sac for stunning, natural light. Who knows, maybe he bought this home for him mom so she can live down the street from him.

If Adam and Jackie do knock this 1,840 foot home down and create an over 7,000 foot home, I wonder how many bedrooms it will be?

Although a nice bathroom, I’d imagine this is not a part of the house Adam and his wife, Jackie, will keep. It also has a basic tub and stand-up shower.
Backyard

It does sit on 10,000 square feet so plenty of space to build additions or knock it down and start over.

You can see how easy it is to fall in love with such a private backyard. If it is for his mom to have a California home as well then this is perfect.

No matter what the Sandler’s decide to do with this home and why they bought it, maybe we’ll know soon, or not. They have nice taste no matter what.
