The former celebrity power couple snagged the house for $3.5 million cash and sold it for $4.9 million.

It has seven bedrooms, five bathrooms, a grand winding staircase, hardwood floors and marble mantles.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s New Orleans home has sold on auction for $2.8 million, a fraction of the original listing price, amid their lengthy court battle

The couple bought the 7,703 square foot mansion in the city’s iconic French Quarter in 2006, before selling it in 2016 – shortly after Jolie filed for divorce

Built in 1828, this luxury New Orleans townhouse was once owned by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie at the height of their ‘Brangelina’ fame

The townhouse’s 7,700 square feet are filled with plush amenities and stylish finishes, and was remodeled in 2017

The starting bid for the mansion was $1 million, and after 12 bidders named their price the property eventually went for $2.8 million

The historic home features many modern elements – including an elevator, gym, outdoor pool and water fountain

There is even a chef’s kitchen and a three-guest house, as well as a gated driveway lined with gas lamps.

Despite the grandeur and deep history of the property, including its famous residents, the house brought in around half of its original asking price.

The starting bid for the mansion was $1 million, and after 12 bidders named their price the property eventually went for $2.8 million.

‘The property sold at auction for a total price of $2,800,000. It was recently listed at $3.25 million when Interluxe became involved, which represents a list/sell ratio of 86%,’ Scott Kirk, president and CEO of Interluxe Auctions, told FOX Business.

This is a significant drop from the original listing price, which was $5.35 million.

The home was named as the winner of the national HGTV Ultimate House Hunt in the Downtown Dwellings category this year.

‘Brangelina’ purchased the home just one year after meeting on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith – a romance that sparked controversy given Pitt’s marriage to Friends superstar Jennifer Anniston.

The master suite also includes its own fireplace, and the chance to stay in the same room as one of the world’s most famous celebrity couples

Its spot in the French Quarter district covers over 30 feet of front space, in an area where famed actor John Goodman is also known to frequent the streets

The two stars have been duking it out in court for years – all the while, Brad and Angelina have also been intertwined in a nasty custody war over their six children

Despite admitting she fell in love with Pitt during filming she insisted ‘to be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive.

‘I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn’t be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife.’

The pair tied the knot in 2014 – after dating for almost 10 years.

‘Brangelina’ share six children – Maddox, who Jolie adopted from Cambodia in 2002, Zahara, who was adopted from an Ethiopian orphanage in 2005 and Pax are the couple’s non-biological children.

Shiloh and twins Knox and Vivienne are their biological kids.

The two stars have been duking it out in court for years, with the bitter battle stemming from Angelina’s decision to sell her stake in the French vineyard, which they had purchased together while they were dating in 2008, in 2021.

Brad initially claimed that she made the sale behind his back and alleged that his ex was trying to ‘intentionally harm’ the business’ reputation and ‘undermine’ his investment.

All the while, Brad and Angelina have also been intertwined in a nasty custody war over their six children.
