This Is What $6.85 Million Gets You in Hollywood Hills Right Now Thanks to Jeremy Piven’s Big Sale
Jeremy Piven held onto one of the most striking homes in Mount Olympus for nearly a decade. Gated compound, sweeping city views, resort-style backyard. Everything a buyer at this level expects.
He left with barely more than he came in with. And once you factor in what selling a home above $5 million actually costs in Los Angeles, he did not break even. Not even close.
The Home He Bought and Could Not Sell
The property at 2008 Hercules Drive has been Piven’s since 2017, purchased for $6.8 million. It sits behind walls and an automated gate in the Mount Olympus pocket of Hollywood Hills, high above the Sunset Strip.
The home spans 6,200 square feet across two levels with four bedrooms and five bathrooms. A floating staircase, floor-to-ceiling glass walls, views from downtown LA to the Pacific, an infinity-edge pool, a sunken fire pit, a rooftop deck, and a three-car garage. On paper, it checks every box.
16 Months, Four Price Drops, One Deal That Fell Apart
Before listing, Piven tested it as a rental at $35,000 per month. No serious takers…
