Jennifer Aniston shares rare look inside her $30m+ LA mansion before the Emmy Awards
Notoriously private Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston has given away more than she bargained for when she showed off her $30 million cashedup life.
Before Jennifer Aniston hit the 76th Emmy Awards red carpet, she treated her millions of fans to something far more exclusive — a rare tour of her sprawling $30.8m (US$21m) mansion.
The Friends star is known for keeping her private life under wraps, but pulled back the curtain on her stunning midcentury-modern home, located in posh Bel Air.

In the video Aniston gives a candid glimpse into her lifestyle, giving viewers a front-row seat to her jaw-dropping property.
The estate, originally designed by famed architect A. Quincy Jones in 1965 according to The Post, boasts floor-to-ceiling windows, dark hardwood floors and modernist sculptures.
After she purchased the home in 2011, Aniston brought in designer Stephen Shadley to revamp the space, adding their personal touches to soften the mansion’s sleek aesthetic.
“Jen is drawn to wood, stone, and bronze, materials that have real substance and depth,” Mr Shadley explained in an interview with Architectural Digest.
“No matter how beautiful or glamorous something is, it has to be warm and inviting.”
In the video, Aniston first gives viewers a close-up of her pearl-coloured, strapless Oscar de la Renta gown before slowly panning across her luxurious living room.
As she paused to admire the space, fans got an eyeful of her home’s mid-century charm. And while her Emmy gown was undoubtedly a showstopper, her $30m+ home was the real scene-stealer.

The video showed Aniston walking through her home, stopping in the library — which is a highlight of her estate.
With a floor-to-ceiling bookcase filled with gold-bound books, and a section reserved for the many awards she’s racked up over the years, the space captured the home’s blend of Hollywood glam and cozy comfort.
Among her trophies was the Emmy she won for her role as Rachel Green on Friends, proudly on display alongside countless other accolades.
But it wasn’t all about showing off her gown and her house. Aniston’s down-to-earth nature shone through when she warmly embraced her longtime friend and “The Morning Show” producer, Kristin Hahn, who appeared to be just as at home in Aniston’s palace as the star herself.
During the pair’s heartfelt reunion in the library, viewers got to see them surrounded by luxe furnishings and a massive wall of windows.
The tour wasn’t complete without a peek at Aniston’s luxe makeup station, which is surrounded by lightbulb-framed mirrors straight out of a movie star’s dressing room.
But curious house fanatics got more they bargained for at the end when Aniston and Hahn stepped through the mansion’s dramatic front entrance.
The Emmy nominee made her exit through massive doors covered in eye-catching grey stripes.
Aniston’s “The Morning Show” was a top contender at the Emmys, with her and co-star Reese Witherspoon both competing for the same award — but was ultimately won by Shōgun star Anna Sawai.
In addition to her Bel-Air home, Aniston owns an elegant Montecito property, for which she paid $21.7m (US$14.8m).
That home is a four-bedroom, three-bathroom Tuscan-style farmhouse that was built in 1998.
