Nicolas Cage in Bel Air, Estate of the Day

Like Dakota over at Curbed LA, I've got a weakness for the home Nicolas Cage is trying to sell in Bel Air, California. This vintage Tudor is classic old Hollywood and was once home to both Dean Martin and Tom Jones. Cage purchased the home in 1998 from Jones for $6.469 million and has been trying to sell the home off and on since 2006 when it was listed at $35 million. The seven-bedroom home is on an acre of land and has over 11,000 square feet of space. It's ridiculously, deliciously grand with a large theater, game room, wine cellar and rooms of truly epic scale. It is now listed at $19.75 million.

This isn't Cage's only price cut. The Las Vegas home he put on the market last summer has had a more modest price chop down to $9.49 million. It was listed at $9.95 million when it was our estate of the day. His Rhode Island home, which we covered back in October, remains at $15.9 million.

OK, the guy is Italian, so naturally has an impeccable sense of taste and style. But, he apparently has a great decorator too, because there is nothing not to like about any of the three homes that have been show on Luxist. Wonder how many bottles of wine in the cellar came form Uncle Francis Ford or cousin Sophia?

By the way, he should have taken the role of Batman when it was offered to him (over George Clooney). His current home would have been ideal for Wayne Manor!

Deidre: could you please at least tell us WHY you are not including a "link after the jump" any more?

Some days, submitted comments won't go through (and no confirmation e-mail is received).

I think that it's an attempt to make you click through to the gallery, more page views=more revenue.

I can't speak for anyone but me but after spending about 5:00 per day on Luxist I now spend less than 1:00.

I will take the Estate of the Day and put all of the pictures on a single page. I'm not looking to make any money on it (no ads whatsoever). Just visit me at

Wow everyone, lots of strong thoughts on the galleries. I've been having trouble with my image uploader within posts and also was concerned that two sets of pictures were redundant, hence the move to galleries. You have been heard and I'm going to be adding pictures back in after the jump on estates within the next week. You can still find a more complete and larger sized set in the gallery.
