Jodie Foster Lists Beverly Hills Home for $10M

Jodie Foster just listed for $9.975 million her gorgeous, but quaint Beverly Hills, Calif., home. Don't listen to those bloggers here and there who are calling this 7-bedroom, 8-bath home a teardown or a fixer-upper just because the listing description says, "Build your dream estate on this lush park like setting." See the interior photos in our gallery and decide for yourself.

From the brick-paved entry way through to the custom built-ins in almost every room and out the three-story arched wall of windows, this 1949-built ivy-covered home has obviously been remodeled and should not be torn down. However, the floral cloth covering on the ceiling of the laundry room is the one obvious flaw and probably should be stripped.

The Academy Award-winner paid $8.1 million in 2005 for the Cape Cod-style ranch that she bought from famed plastic surgeon Norman Leaf (and his wife Judith) who wrote True Tales of Plastic Surgery From Beverly Hills.
