The Enduring Allure of Rising Glen Road

Originally published August 31, 2026.

A Legacy of Stardom

Few addresses in the Hollywood Hills carry the weight of cultural history quite like 1895 Rising Glen Road. Perched high above the city, this estate has been a sanctuary for some of the most recognizable names in entertainment, including Madonna, Britney Spears, and the late actress Brittany Murphy. The property’s provenance is as much a part of its appeal as its sweeping views, serving as a tangible link to the golden eras of pop culture and cinema.

A Strategic Market Move

In a move that signals the current fluidity of the luxury market, the sellers have recently adjusted their expectations, slashing $1 million from the asking price. The estate is now listed at $12.895 million. This price reduction follows a comprehensive rebuild of the property, which aimed to modernize the residence while respecting its illustrious past. The home, which was sold by Brittany Murphy’s estate in 2011 following her passing, has since undergone significant transformations to meet the demands of today’s most discerning buyers.

The Bird Streets Standard

Rising Glen Road remains one of the most coveted stretches in the 90069 area, offering a level of privacy and prestige that is increasingly difficult to secure. As the property returns to the market with its new, more competitive price point, it invites a new generation of owners to claim a piece of Hollywood history. Whether for its architectural evolution or its A-list pedigree, 1895 Rising Glen Road continues to be a focal point for those looking to ascend to the heights of Los Angeles living.
