Comedian Aubrey Plaza appears to have made a U-turn on her decision to sell the $6.5 million home where her husband, Jeff Baena, passed away—just three months after she put the Los Angeles dwelling on the market.
Plaza, 41, initially put the four-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom abode on the market in September, eight months after Baena died by suicide at the age of 47 inside the home.
Records show that it was taken off the market on Dec. 23. It is not known whether the comedian has plans to relist it in the coming months.
Plaza and Baena, who was a writer and director, purchased the home in October 2022, paying $4.7 million for the Los Feliz property.
At the time, the property was purchased through a trust managed by an accounting firm located in the same office as Plaza’s production company, Evil Hag Productions.
The Mediterranean-style dwelling was built in 1928 and appears to have been purchased off market, according to Realtor.com® data.
Before it was purchased by the couple in 2022, the home last changed hands in 2017 for $3.6 million.
In its listing, the Spanish-style home was described as being “tucked away on a private street” in the “coveted” neighborhood of Los Feliz Oaks.
“Meticulously restored and tastefully updated, the home honors its architectural heritage while offering modern amenities including a screening room, wine cellar, pool, oversized steam room, and a state-of-the-art sound system,” the description continued.
“This is more than a home … it’s a private sanctuary, brought back to life with care, style, and enduring character. A rare opportunity for those seeking space, seclusion, and authentic Spanish charm.”
Listing images revealed a tasteful interior, with a neutral, elegant palette used throughout the home, which is filled with natural light.
The bright and airy kitchen features large glass doors to the backyard, helping to create a seamless flow between the two spaces.
However, there are several pops of color throughout the abode, including a large pink couch in one of the living areas, as well as funky yellow-and-green tile in a bathroom.
Pink appears to have been a favorite hue for Plaza, with the primary bathroom painted a very pale rose and adorned with fun lighting fixtures in a similar color.
There are also many amenities outside of the main residence, including multiple outdoor living spaces “designed for dining, lounging, and entertaining,” as well as a stunning swimming pool, a grassy lawn, and a canopy of trees providing natural shade for the hottest of days.
In one of the living spaces, an artistic arched window showcases the beauty of the natural surroundings, providing a picturesque view of the property’s gardens.
Arches run throughout the dwelling, from the curved front door to the arched doorways that lead from one room into the next in many of the main living areas.
Plaza’s decision to put the property on the market came just days after she completed a brief publicity tour for her new movie, “Honey Don’t!” It also stars Margaret Qualley and Chris Evans.
As part of her media commitments for the project, the comedian attended red carpet events, while also sitting down with fellow comedian Amy Poehler to open up about the film—but not before speaking out about her husband’s passing.
Attempting to explain her grieving process, Plaza referenced the 2025 movie “The Gorge,” starring Miles Teller and Anya-Taylor Joy, which features a remote crevasse filled with monsters—with guard posts stationed on either side to protect their respective territories from the horrors within.
Plaza admitted that while it might seem like a strange analogy, the setup of the sci-fi thriller felt much like her grief.
“This is a really dumb analogy, and it was kind of a joke at a certain point, but I actually mean it. Did you see that movie ‘The Gorge’?” Plaza asked. “It’s like [an] alien movie or something with Miles Teller.
“In the movie, there’s like a cliff on one side and there’s a cliff on the other side. Then there’s a gorge in between and it’s filled with all these, like, monster people that are trying to get them. I swear, when I watched it, I was like ‘That feels like what my grief is like … or what grief could be like.'”
The on-screen star explained that, no matter how she is feeling in a specific moment, her grief is always lingering—regardless of whether she wants to fully lean into it, or escape it altogether.
“At all times, there’s like a giant ocean of awfulness, that’s like right there and I can see it,” she said. “Sometimes I just want to dive into it, and just like be in it. Then sometimes I just look at it, and sometimes I try to get away from it. But it’s always there.”
