Real estate transaction: Heather and Terry Dubrow's dwelling in affluent Beverly Hills trades hands for an impressive $16.5 million.
In the heart of the Beverly Hills Post Office area, a five-bedroom, nine-bathroom home spanning over eight acres has recently changed hands. The property was previously owned by Heather and Terry Dubrow, who initially purchased it for approximately $16 million in 2023.
The Dubrows initially listed the estate for sale in March 2025, with an asking price of $25 million. However, the final selling price was modestly higher than their original purchase but well below the initial listing, closing at $16.5 million in August 2025.
The Dubrows invested a couple of million dollars in renovations, but they did not complete a planned major overhaul that could have increased the property's value to an estimated $85 million. They also paid a 5 percent mansion tax on the purchase price, amounting to approximately $800,000.
The sale was brokered by prominent agents, including Josh Flagg and the Altman brothers. The exact real estate fees were not specified, but they are likely around 5-6 percent of the sale price, consistent with luxury home sales standards.
The buyer of the Dubrow's estate was a non-famous individual from outside the country who initially backed out but later purchased the property. The deal was facilitated after the buyer discovered the listed property on Instagram and reached out to one of the agents.
The picturesque city-to-ocean-view grounds contain a kitchen setup, several alfresco lounging and entertaining areas, a full-sized tennis court, and more. The home features a soaring foyer, a living room with French doors leading to an expansive brick deck, a formal dining room, and a wood-clad kitchen. The primary suite comes with a sitting area, a private balcony, dual walk-in closets and baths, a library, and a media room.
The two-story traditional structure was previously owned by the estate of late filmmaker Martha De Laurentiis. The Dubrows are still reported to own a residence in Orange County.
The article was first reported by TMZ, with Christina Pope of Sotheby's International Realty and Gary Reavis of Forward Luxury Estates representing the buyer. This sale comes after the Dubrows sold their elaborate Newport Coast mansion, known as the Dubrow Chateau, three years ago to medical device tycoon Xu Hang for a record-breaking $55 million.
