See Inside Duchess Meghan and Her Ex-Husband’s Light-Filled Former L.A. Home—on Sale for $1.8M!
If you have about two million dollars cash to spare, then you too could live like a royal! Well, a pre-royal. Because when Meghan Markle originally bought her Los Angeles home, she had no idea that some day she would be living as HRH The Duchess of Sussex in a fairytale cottage across the Atlantic Ocean.
Now the “rare colonial Hancock Park charmer with so much sunshine” has gone back on the market for $1.8 million.
Meghan and her first husband Trevor Engelson lived in the house between 2011 and 2013—Meghan had begun starring in Suits and was spending a lot of time filming the show up in Toronto. The rest of the time, she flew down to the home she shared with director and producer Trevor in Los Angles.

The house, unquestionably, is stunning. Our favorite details are the lantern hanging over the classic porch, the dark wooden shutters and the palm trees growing outside that give the exterior a tropical vibe.
Inside, the open-plan living/dining room is painted white, as is the kitchen, as are the four bedrooms—well, one is gray but you get the picture. The neutral color scheme and plain wooden floors create a cool and otherworldly interior, with pops of color lent by soft furnishings and artwork.

The most beautiful room is probably the suite upstairs, with its raised double bed and a seating area by a window framing the emerald fronds of those ubiquitous palm trees.
We’re sure Meghan doesn’t miss it too much. After all she is a member of British royalty now, with entire palaces at her disposal to drift grandly around! And yet that’s not really her style. In stark contrast to the luxurious California house she once occupied, she now lives quietly with Prince Harry and Baby Archie in Frogmore Cottage, secluded deep within the Windsor Estate. Proof that dreams really can come true—it’s just they might look different to how you might have imagined, once upon a time.
