The Famous "horsehead Mansion" From The Godfather, Now Bankrupt, Is For Sale At $125 Million | Celebrity Net Worth 2026

At the center of a 3.5-acre lot in Beverly Hills is the mansion known as Beverly House. If you aren't familiar with it by its proper name, you may be familiar with the house as it appears in 1972's The Godfather, more precisely as the stately Hollywood mansion of fictional movie producer Jack Woltz, who infamously wakes up with a severed horse's head in his bed after defying mob boss Vito Corleone. Now, The Wall Street Journal reports, the mansion is (possibly) being listed for sale at $125 million.

Beverly House once belonged to legendary newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst, but that was a long time ago, and the property is currently in bankruptcy thanks to its current owner Leonard Ross. Ross filed to place the estate in chapter 11 bankruptcy in order to avoid foreclosure, and he's now asking a bankruptcy judge for permission to list it at the reported price, which is a significant reduction over what it's been listed at previously, like $195 million in 2016 and $135 million in 2018 – but it's actual appraised value is $119 million.
