Vanessa Hudgens is selling her longtime home, a secluded Mediterranean-style estate built into the foothills of Studio City, California, for $3.895 million.
Ms. Hudgens purchased the house for $2.75 million 10 years ago, when the “High School Musical” starlet was a wee 20 years old, according to property records. The home hits the market on Tuesday with listing agent TJ Paradise of Sotheby’s International Realty.
In the last decade, Ms. Hudgens, 30, has put her personal touch on the spacious six-bedroom home, complementing the architecture with Moorish design touches, hanging Moroccan-style lamps and painting the stucco exterior in a crisp white, Mr. Paradise said.
Through carved wooden doors, the more than 5,000-square-foot house opens into a foyer that leads through an elaborate, tented arch to a grand spiral staircase. The open living spaces include a sitting room with a fireplace, built-in benches and large cutouts in the wall that look into the adjacent dining room.
On the other side of the dining room is a large open kitchen with sage-painted cabinets and its own informal dining space. The kitchen wraps around to a family room, which has dramatic views over the city.
The second story encompasses the bedrooms and an office. In the master suite, a double-sided fireplace separates the bedroom from a sitting room, where Ms. Hudgens has decorated a wall in miniature carved female figures.
“It really matches what her whole vibe is,” Mr. Paradise said. Ms. Hudgens was not available for comment.
Two sets of glass French doors flood the master bedroom with light and lead to a front balcony with jetliner views over Los Angeles.

The home was built in 2006 at the base of a foothill, where the hillside, a canopy of trees and tall retaining wall provide complete privacy over its laguna-like backyard. Set over multiple levels, the outdoor space centers around a freeform pool and spa.
The actress is now looking to change house after a decade of ownership, Mr. Paradise said.
“It was just time for her to move,” he added. “We get the itch when we’re ready for something new.”
