A piece of Hollywood real estate history is back up for grabs … the Gene Wilder<\/strong><\/a> home in Bel Air … and the place is pretty eclectic.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The late actor’s former home has just been listed for sale at $12,950,000 … and it’s got a pretty interesting history … including some links to Elon Musk<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Gene bought the place way back in 1976 for about $300K … making the big purchase after his 1974 movie “Young Frankenstein” became a hit.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

The place has 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and 2,750 square feet of living space … plus a kidney-shaped pool in the backyard, overlooking the Bel-Air Country Club golf course.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Wilder lived there for decades, until he sold the property in 2007 for $2.75 million … and in 2013, Musk snapped it up for $6.75 million.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Elon owned a bigger — and newer — house across the street at the time … and Musk preserved Gene’s eclectic home, using it as a place to host parties and events.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

When Elon announced in 2020 he was selling<\/strong><\/a> all his physical possessions, he put the house on the market for $9.5 million … and made it clear he wanted the next owner to keep the home as is, instead of knocking it down and starting fresh.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Ultimately, Elon made a deal with Gene’s nephew, Jordan Walker-Pearlman<\/strong>, who had grown up in the house with his famous uncle. Elon sold the place back to the family for $7 million … with the stipulation Jordan would not alter the home’s “soul.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Elon lent Jordan and his wife, screenwriter Elizabeth Hunter<\/strong>, $6.7 million — and in October 2020 the sale closed … and Gene’s home was saved.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Now, Gene’s place is back up for sale … hitting the market the same day the Wall Street Journal reports Jordan and Elizabeth have fallen behind on loan payments.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The WSJ also reports an entity tied to Musk recently filed a notice of default on the home … an early step in the foreclosure process.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Elon can reportedly force a sale in the next few months … and it appears Jordan and Elizabeth are going to try to sell the place before the deadline.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Our sources say Gene’s family and Elon share the same wish here … for the house to keep its original soul … and we’re told that will be part of the deal.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
