"The property he bought is on the beach, behind the gates of Malibu Colony. Built in 1928 but recently remodeled, the two-story house has two bedrooms downstairs and one bedroom upstairs in about 1,800 square feet. The master bedroom has a balcony and an ocean view."
"The Malibu home is believed to be Hanks' first California residence, though Hanks and his wife, Rita Wilson, had a baby son last August in a Los Angeles hospital. He leased a house last summer at Carbon Beach and decided then to buy a place in Malibu."
"Separate from the main quarters, there is a housekeeper's room and a two-bedroom guest apartment with a kitchen. John and Evans Frankenheimer sold the home because they bought a Beverly Hills residence with a tennis court about a year ago."
Tom Hanks acquired a beachfront property in Malibu Colony from director John Frankenheimer for close to the $3.25-million asking price. The 1928-built, recently remodeled two-story house spans approximately 1,800 square feet and features two bedrooms downstairs, one upstairs, and a master bedroom with ocean views. Additional amenities include a housekeeper's room and a separate two-bedroom guest apartment with kitchen. This represents Hanks' first California residence, though he and his wife Rita Wilson had previously leased a house at Carbon Beach and welcomed a baby son in Los Angeles. The Frankenheimers sold the property after purchasing a Beverly Hills residence with a tennis court.
