Actor Chris Hemsworth and his model/actress wife Elsa Pataky have quietly acquired a mini-compound in the celebrity-filled Point Dume area of Malibu (CA) for $4,800,000.*
Thirty-year old Mr. Hemsworth and multi-lingual Mrs. Pataky purchased the approximately one acre spread from Crocodile Dundee star Paul Hogan and his Julliard-trained former actress wife, Linda Kozlowski. The Hogan-Kozlowskis purchased the property in July 2012 for $3.8 million, shortly after they settled confidentially with the Australian tax authorities who claimed they and his former manager owed more than $150 million in back taxes. The couple made a number of mostly cosmetic but no-doubt viciously costly alterations to the house (i.e. they painted and did over the master bathroom), which had already had it's interiors completely redone in a modern manner by the people they bought it from, only to flip it back on the market seven months later with its original and only asking price of $5,250,000.

Listing information from the time of the transaction show the existing,
three-story residence, all but hidden behind secured gates and a
towering wall of hedges, was built in 1992 in a Victorian-style that
hides and belies the open, airy, and decidedly contemporary interiors.
Spendy and downright stunning wide plank white oak floors run throughout
the not exactly open concept but certainly interconnected main floor
living spaces that include a "formal" living room and a small adjoining
vestibule behind the staircase and connects through to a trellis-shaded
brick terrace that runs along the back of the house.
The second floor master suite is complete, according to digital
marketing materials, with fireplace, separate sitting area/dressing
area, two fitted walk-in closets, a private veranda with distant
over-the-tree-tops view of the Pacific, and decent-sized but hardly
gargantuan attached bathroom with double sinks set into a long floating
cabinet, egg-shaped free-standing soaking tub. and separate glassed-in
shower enclosure. Listing details indicate there are additional three
guest/family bedrooms with en suite facilities and a "bonus bedroom,"
whatever that is.
