"Given this penchant for privacy, it makes sense that he landed in the coastal community of Malibu, which has long been a magnet for A‑listers since it's only a short drive from Los Angeles, yet offers far more seclusion than Beverly Hills. Residents include Julia Roberts and Sergey Brin, and Penn is part of this discreet celebrity cohort."
"Penn briefly showed the photographer his house-images from inside show acting awards on display and a more practical than polished kitchen, which features white shaker cabinetry, open shelving, and a diamond-pattern tiled backsplash."
"Real‑estate documents describe the property, which was dubbed "Fortress Madonna," as a 7,000‑square‑foot wood‑and‑glass residence with five bedrooms, a pool, a tennis court, and a gym. But the couple's time together there was short-lived-when the marriage ended in 1989, Penn retained the property and later shared it with actress Robin Wright."
Sean Penn owns several residences across California and Hawaii, prioritizing privacy in exclusive communities. His primary Malibu home, where he recently hosted Louis Theroux, exemplifies his secretive lifestyle in a celebrity enclave also inhabited by Julia Roberts and Sergey Brin. Penn maintains a Los Angeles base featuring practical design elements like white shaker cabinetry and open shelving, as documented in a 2022 photographer profile. He also owns a beachfront property on Oahu's North Shore purchased in 2007. Penn's real estate history includes a notable Malibu residence purchased with Madonna in 1985, a 7,000-square-foot modern home destroyed in a 1993 wildfire.
