Amanda Seyfried puts Los Angeles villa up for sale as she embraces farm life

Amanda Seyfried appears ready to sever her last link with big-city life. The actress has put her luxury villa in Los Angeles’s Hollywood Hills on the market while continuing to live with her husband, Thomas Sadoski, and their two children on a farm in New York’s Catskill Mountains.

Seyfried hopes to receive $3.19 million for the home. She bought it from fellow actor Adam Brody in 2011 for $1.85 million. The house, built in 1919 and later modernized through renovations, previously belonged to Fred Durst, lead singer of Limp Bizkit.

The villa offers extensive comforts, and Seyfried spent heavily on both its renovation and decoration. But the actress has become so enthusiastic about farm life that she no longer wants to live in the city, at least for now.

Seyfried and Sadoski live in the rural home with their six-year-old daughter, Nina, and two-year-old son, Thomas. The family also includes Seyfried’s mother and a dog named Finn, along with chickens, horses and a monkey named Gus. A special play area for the children occupies part of the living room.

The article presents Seyfried as deeply attached to the quieter setting, which keeps her close to nature while remaining near a major city. For the actress, that life offers the calm she values more than the comforts of Los Angeles.
