Dom DeLuise’s former Palisades property asks $21M after redevelopment

Spread between land listings, sales narrowing in broader Palisades resi market

Dom DeLuise’s Former Palisades Property Listed for $21 Million

A Pacific Palisades property once owned by the late actor and comedian Dom DeLuise hit the market Thursday with an asking price more than triple what it last sold for.

Anthony Marguleas, founder of Palisades-based Amalfi Estates, is marketing 1186 Corsica Drive, which is asking $21 million.

The broker also represented the buyer when DeLuise’s estate sold the home for $6.5 million in 2021 to an entity managed by Jeff Mironer, according to property records.

Mironer runs developer Provincetown Estates, which specializes in residential projects in the Palisades, and is behind the rebuild of the former DeLuise property.

DeLuise appeared in several Mel Brooks films, such as “The Twelve Chairs,” “Blazing Saddles” and “Silent Movie.” There was also “Fatso,” which Brooks’ wife Anne Bancroft directed. The actor also authored several cookbooks and children’s books, in addition to lending his voice in “An American Tail” and “All Dogs Go to Heaven.”

The new build spans over 10,000 square feet and has six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, two powder rooms, a three-car garage and elevator. 

The property sits less than half a mile away from the Riviera Country Club and is also about a five-minute drive to the Brentwood Country Mart.

The home’s landscaping is inspired by the Mediterranean, with olive trees and gardens, in addition to an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven. Inside, the home touts white oak floors, custom wood moldings and millwork, a speakeasy bar, 1,657-bottle wine room and theater. A whole wing of the residence is dedicated to wellness, with a gym, sauna, cold plunge and massage room.

It’s a big change from the ranch-style home that DeLuise reportedly paid $103,000 for in 1968. That price adjusted for inflation would still be under $1 million today, for a 4,500 square feet with five beds and fourth baths, built in 1953, according to the home’s previous listing.

As the Palisades bounces back from the fires, it’s seeing land listings continue to hit the market. However, as noted in Marguleas’ July market report recapping June, the gap between the number of new listings and closings is shrinking.

Marguleas said he expects land listings to peak at about 500 by the middle of next year, based on how the market is currently faring with over 75 properties added to the market each month. 

In June, 77 land listings hit the market, compared to 39 sold, according to Marguleas’ report. That could be viewed as an improvement compared to March’s 115 land listings and 11 closings, or April’s 112 listings and 26 sales.
