Seann William Scott is making a major move in the Los Angeles real estate market, putting one of his most valuable properties up for grabs. The actor stands to make a hefty profit if the sprawling California retreat sells anywhere near its asking price.

“American Pie” star Seann William Scott has put his longtime Malibu estate on the market for $17.5 million, more than two decades after purchasing the property. The actor, also known for his roles in “The Righteous Gemstones” and “Shifting Gears,” bought the home for just under $4 million in 2004.

The Balinese-inspired property, known as The Vanaya House, sits on 1.45 acres above Zuma Beach.

According to the listing, the 4,176-square-foot residence features five bedrooms and five bathrooms, with Pacific Ocean views throughout the grounds. The estate also boasts a resort-style swimming pool, full-size tennis court, lily ponds, mature gardens and a gated motor court.

Inside, timber ceilings and exposed wood beams run throughout much of the home, while expansive windows offer views of the surrounding greenery and ocean. The primary suite comes with a private terrace overlooking the Pacific.

Scott has not revealed why he is selling the Malibu property.

Scott’s lengthy stay at the Malibu property gave him plenty of time to put his stamp on the residence.

The home’s interiors now lean heavily into California’s indoor-outdoor style, with organic materials helping soften its contemporary design. Stone flooring complements the extensive wood detailing, while glass walls allow natural light to pour in and connect the rooms to the surrounding landscape.

The open-plan layout keeps the main living spaces connected. There is also a roof deck and terrace, giving the home even more room to unwind outdoors.

Landscaped lawns and covered patios create additional outdoor living areas, with a pond adding to the property’s secluded feel. However, available reports do not detail exactly when the individual upgrades were made or how much Scott spent on them during his ownership.

Seann William Scott’s Venice Property Has Its Own Story

Scott’s Malibu home isn’t the only California property he has tried to unload in recent years. The “American Pie” star bought a 5,148-square-foot lot in Venice for about $2.2 million in 2017 with plans to renovate and flip it within a year. Instead, the project became a six-year labor of love.

The compound came with a small wooden bungalow and a vastly different three-story glass-and-concrete structure. Scott rebuilt the bungalow while preserving its footprint, later describing it as essentially a new building.

He then teamed up with his then-wife, interior designer Olivia Korenberg, to tackle the larger residence. Their goal was to soften its industrial feel and create more cohesion between the two structures.

By 2024, the finished compound offered roughly 4,600 square feet of combined living space, with five bedrooms and six bathrooms. Scott finally listed the property for just under $5 million that year, although he admitted he wondered whether selling it was a mistake.

Scott’s California real estate dealings also became a source of tension with his ex-wife, Olivia Korenberg.

In 2025, Korenberg accused the actor of trying to force her and their daughter out of a separate Malibu home he purchased for $3.5 million in 2024, per Us Weekly. Their divorce agreement allowed her to live there for one year, but she claimed Scott’s actions suggested the arrangement would last longer.

Korenberg alleged that things changed after she asked Scott to meet her new boyfriend. Weeks later, she said she was “blindsided” by a letter instructing her to vacate the property by June.

Scott denied that the decision was retaliatory. He maintained that Korenberg was never promised permanent use of the home and said he decided to sell after consulting his financial adviser.

A judge later found Scott had the legal right to require Korenberg to leave and to sell the residence. However, the court criticized the way the news was communicated and ordered both exes to attend co-parenting classes.
