The actor and film producer, Brad Pitt, paid $40 Million for author DL James' former home, called Seaward. Known as the D.L. James House, the property was designed by 20th century architect Charles Sumner Greene in 1918. He designed the property on a piece of land owned by infamous author Daniel Lewis James, who wrote ‘Famous All Over Town’, naming the property on the Carmel highlands after him. It has been owned by Searock since 1999, a limited liability company tied to the late Chicago financier Joe Ritchie and his wife, Sharon Ritchie. Joe Ritchie died in 2022, and the property was never publicly listed for sale. The luxury property, which is just meters from the beach, boasts a ‘wooden aesthetic’ and is built from locally quarried sandstone and granite. It has arched windows, with bricks ‘individually chosen’ by Charles Greene, and a tiled Mediterranean-style roof.
