Owned by The Wallflowers frontman Jakob Dylan in the 1990s, and also a onetime outpost of veteran actress Renée Zellweger—who acquired it around the same time she won a 2001 Golden Globe award for her role in Nurse Betty—this celeb-pedigreed pad in the Nichols Canyon area of the Hollywood Hills was originally built six decades ago, but has since been “completely redone.”

Last sold in 2003 for roughly $2.5 million to United Talent Agency partner and former Johnny Depp agent Tracey Jacobs, the ivy-laced estate has returned to the market once again, this time asking nearly $5 million. The listing is held by Josh Flagg of Douglas Elliman.

Tucked away behind walls and a lengthy gated driveway—on almost an acre of land flanked by properties owned by Beverly D’Angelo and Seth Rogen—the single-level abode has three bedrooms and four baths in 3,400 square feet of living space, all of it adorned with dark hardwood floors and wood-beam ceilings.

A chandelier-topped library lined with bookshelves flows to a family room resting beneath a vaulted wood-beam ceiling.

Among the highlights is a living room spotlighted by a fireplace, custom built-ins and French doors spilling out to the backyard. A formal dining room sports another fireplace, a library has floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, and the family room connects to a gourmet kitchen outfitted with marble countertops and top-tier appliances.

Elsewhere is a sumptuous primary bedroom flaunting a sitting area, cedar walk-in closet, and marble-clad bath equipped with a fireplace, heated floors, dual vanities, a soaking tub and steam shower; and outdoors, the oasis-like grounds host a pool and spa surrounded by a sundeck, plus an al fresco dining area with a built-in barbecue. There’s also a detached two-car garage out front.

In case you’re wondering, Jacobs is upgrading her residential circumstances. The industry stalwart recently ponied up $10.3 million for Rihanna’s Tudor-style house in the mountains above Beverly Hills.
