Johnny Depp has put his Los Angeles residence on the market for $12.7 million. The spectacular property shows the actor's love of art, including this eye-catching mural by Brazilian artist twins OSGEMEOS, which takes up an entire wall of the dining room.

The residence sit at the top of the landmark Eastern Columbia Building in the Historic Core district. "As far as architecture is concerned, the clock tower is iconic, it's one of the finest examples of art deco architecture from the period, certainly in Los Angeles," the agent for the sale, Kevin Dees, says.

Depp's home, which he has just moved out of, is made up of five separate condos. The actor purchased the first one in 2007.

Depp then bought up the other four apartments in the wing over the next few years and connected three of the condos by adding doorways to each.

Records show that Depp bought the apartments directly from the developer, and paid around $7.2 million for all five.

The three combined condos act as the living and entertaining space.

The two remaining condos were left separate -- one serves as a guest room while the other is an art and media studio.

All of the penthouses feature sweeping views over Los Angeles.

"The best way to describe it is, each of these units, think of it like rooms in a home," says Dees.

"These are lofts but the unique aspect of these penthouses is they each have their own bedrooms upstairs on the second level, both ensuite, and it's just a fabulous place with fabulous pieces of art," Dees adds.

As well as access to the building's shared gym, swimming pool and "leisure terrace", the home has several of its own private terraces.

Framed pieces of art and family photos adorn almost every wall of the penthouses.

The walls of the apartment are painted in vibrant blues and greens that mirror the bright turquoise terra cotta and gold leaf tiles that line the building's exterior.

Depp reached a divorce settlement with actress Amber Heard in August. She announced that she would donate the financial proceeds to charity.

The condo is one of numerous properties owned by Depp and the actor is selling two other mansions he owns -- one in France and the other in Venice.

The agent would not confirm that the sale was related to the divorce. "Prices in downtown Los Angeles are at levels that we've never seen, especially in the Historic Core," says Dees.

"Mr. Depp is not only a brilliant actor and artist but he's a smart businessman," says Dees.

Perhaps Hollywood's happiest divorced couple, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, split in 1998 after a 10-year relationship. They have three daughters.

Situated atop the striking Claude Beelman-designed Eastern Columbia Art Deco building, in the old downtown area of LA, the actor’s nine bedroom, 14 bathroom, 11,500 square foot property has hit the market following his recent acrimonious divorce from actress Amber Heard.

And while the listing’s celebrity-fueled past is generating chatter, there are perhaps far more compelling reasons to take a look inside.

“While obviously being owned by Johnny Depp certainly attracts more media attention to the penthouse collection, what makes them unique beyond that, is the opportunity to own a wing atop LA’s most architecturally significant residential high rise building,” the agent selling the penthouses, Kevin Dees, from Partner’s Trust Los Angeles, says.

Art work dots the walls of Depp's apartment

Penthouse pandemonium

Comprised of five separate penthouses that have been combined into one spectacular living space, the sprawling apartment features colorful walls adorned with family photographs, framed art and murals.

Of particular note, a vibrant, multi-colored OSGEMEOS artwork has been painted on an entire wall of the dining room, which itself takes up one of the five penthouses.

The dining room

If you’re ever bored of staring at the walls, you also have a choice of several stunning vistas of downtown LA, says Dees, who spoke to CNN from inside the apartment.

“I’m looking north down Broadway and you’ve got these beautiful historic buildings, and you’ve got mountains off in the distance, you’ve got the newer part of downtown to the west, and I like to sit here and look out and imagine that this probably is what it was like being here in the 1930s,” he says.

Businessman Depp

Depp, who only recently moved out of the residence, purchased the first penthouse in 2007, soon after the building was converted from a clothing and furniture store into an apartment building.

He acquired the rest of the apartments in the wing over the proceeding few years, adding doorways to connect three apartments together – which form the living space – and keeping one penthouse as a guest residence and another as an art and media studio.

The property is being sold as one package, but the condos can also be purchased individually. Dees would not disclose the prices for an individual sale.

The Los Angeles condo is one of numerous properties owned by Depp and its listing comes less than two months after it was revealed that the actor is selling two other mansions he owns – one in France and the other in Venice.

Doors connect three of the five penthouses

Although the sales would appear to be related to his recent divorce, Dees emphasized the LA sale was a savvy business decision by the actor, who reportedly first bought the apartments from the developer for a little over a combined $7.2 million.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard settle divorce

“Real estate prices in Los Angeles are at very healthy levels,” he says. “Mr. Depp is not only a brilliant actor and artist but he’s a smart businessman.”
