Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt's former home in Beverly Hills is for sale for $49 million, Mansion Global reported.
The current owner is Jonathan Brooks, a hedge fund executive who founded Smithwood Partners. Brooks bought the home from the actors in 2006 after their divorce, according to The Journal.
Aniston and Pitt bought the 12,000-square-foot California house for $13.1 million in 2001 from the entertainment attorney Ken Ziffren and spent three years renovating it, adding features including heated marble floors in the kitchen and a pub room with wood floors imported from a 200-year-old French castle.
The home, described by the Journal as a "French Normandy Revival property," has four bedrooms and comes with a swimming pool, ample outdoor space, and a championship tennis court. It's listed by Susan Smith of Hilton & Hyland.
The Journal previously reported that the home would list for $56 million, but the listing agent recently said that price was an estimate.
"We officially decided to go on the market just under $50 million, based on recent comps that have sold," Smith told Mansion Global. "We're not looking to test the market, we're selling this home at a realistic price."
Here's a look inside the $49 million home.

The $49 million price tag may seem extravagant, but it's in line with other homes in the neighborhood. According to The Journal, a neighboring home that once belonged to Danny DeVito recently sold for about $66 million.
