Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. swapped the tony enclave of Bel Air for a more family friendly footprint in Brentwood‘s Lower Mandeville Canyon pocket in 2013. The A-list couple—who met in 1997 while filming the teen slasher movie I Know What You Did Last Summer and married in 2002—settled with their two young children at a sprawling home set amid rolling lawns on just over a third of an acre. They customized the place through the years, upgrading the swimming pool and converting an attic into a teen hangout complete with arcade machines.
Having already relocated to an Encino property they acquired in an off-market deal in spring 2025 for about $12.4 million, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer star and She’s All That heartthrob are selling the Colonial-style residence they purchased more than a decade ago for $6.1 million. After a short stint on the rental market last year at $60,000 per month, it’s now listed for $10.5 million with Cindy Ambuehl of Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California.
“The home feels safe, private, and part of a wonderful community,” Ambuehl told Realtor.com. “The floor plan is smart and functional, with both a front staircase and a secondary kitchen staircase, which made everyday family living very easy.”

Designed and built in 2006 by Greg and Grace Shain, the husband-and-wife team behind Shain Development, the white board-and-batten-sided and dormer-topped residence offers a total of five bedrooms and six bathrooms. Roughly 7,300 square feet across three levels showcase wide-plank oak floors, custom millwork, and French doors opening seamlessly to the outdoors.
A columned portico entrance leads into a double-height foyer, which flows through large pilastered doorways to a formal dining room dressed in floral wallpaper and a wood-paneled study lined with bookshelves. Further back, a spacious kitchen with a central eat-in island and premium appliances adjoins a casual dining area and a family room, while an elegant fireside living room sports a wet bar and a climatized wine room.
