You heard me say it all right! The latest celebrity to buy in Hidden Hills is Shay Mitchell, who joins countless other stars who call the enclave home — from NFL star Matthew Stafford, Lil Wayne and Madonna to rapper Iggy Azalea, Jeffree Star and nearly every Kardashian member. A Mediterranean-inspired estate with nearly 8,000 square feet of living space spread across a main house, an attached guesthouse, and a pool house has been bought by the “Pretty Little Liars” star for $7.2 million by her longtime partner, Matte Babel, a former “Entertainment Tonight Canada” reporter. A pastoral view can be seen from nearly every square inch of this 1.5-acre property.
In 2014, Mitchell bought “The Hangover” actor Justin Bartha’s 1920s Los Feliz villa for $3.7 million.
In addition to her breakout role as Emily Fields in the long-running drama series “Pretty Little Liars,” Mitchell has also appeared in a number of other films and television shows, including “Rookie Blue,” “You,” “The Possession of Hannah Grace,” as well as the comedy series “Dollface” on Hulu.” She also hosts a YouTube lifestyle channel, which has racked up 4.2 million subscribers, and she’s the co-founder and chief brand officer of Onda, a sparkling tequila company based in Jalisco, Mexico. She also has over 30 million Instagram followers, making her a major influencer.
Mitchell’s residence was designed by glitz-loving architect Richard Landry in 1990 and has an extensive exterior stonework capped by a red tile roof. The lush lot is dotted by mature oak trees and oodles of multicolored roses; an elegant double front door notched into a turret opens into a circular grand foyer with French doors leading directly out to the backyard.
